It was funny but it doesn't give you the opportunity to take the moral high ground about the continued tolerance of Dougie on here just because it fits your contrarian nature.
and the 30 points Chelsea deduction.
Oh yeah, my mistake
The whole story is strange. If it was a hamstring, as they say it was, the idea of playing 3 days later is preposterous. If it was something else, and the medical team said he was OK to play but not for 90 minutes, why say it was a hamstring?
I've said the same thing, with Estupinan as an example. But the medical team did not say he could only play the second half and not the first.
We didn't want Fati out there for 45 minutes, he came on for a run with the game over. He didn't have to bust a gut. Olise was asked to play the second half and he had to sprint full speed. Bringing Olise on was a stupid decision.
We played better than OK in the first half. They hardly touched the ball for 45 minutes except to pick it out of the net 3 times. Admittedly we got sloppy in the second-half.
But if it was a hamstring, as they say, it's pretty much impossible to play 3 or 4 days later. It's a multi-week recovery. I had a hamstring "tweak" (not a tear) playing Sunday League football in my mid-twenties and I could still feel the damned thing 6 months later.
I think the point is that you could have a year where all teams are good, and 3 teams are a bit unlucky to go down as the competition is so good. Other times, you could be really shit, but stay up because other clubs have imploded. Liverpool were brilliant a few years back, but finished second because City were even better. Teams worse than that Liverpool side have won the league easily.
Without the plonkers, there is never much noise. I normally watch their games with the volume down because the droning noise gets on my tits. A few games ago, I turned it up because it was okay - turns out that was the game that they were locked out of their cupboard so they they went mute in protest. The non plonkers did not take up the slack at all. Similar to the 5-0 up The Arse when the drum got confiscated.
Well if that was the case, he shouldn't have been on the bench, fair enough.
Are you sure? The noses, i'm imagining a problem with the noses.Can I just say that I have a few friends in common with parish's daughters and they are really nice. And FIT.
Not everything palace is shite
Well we don't actually know what advice was given by the medical team, we've got Hodgson's comments which judging by the pressure on his job, may be true or not true.
Lol this is a bit wrong !! The pic is about 10 years old
