Cantor with a brief attack of Aspinallism



I pity the person who's counting!

There could be a few late arrivals

Do you? Should a professional athlete be able to play 90 minutes twice in a week? I would have thought so.

Professional athletes are still human beings. Sometimes they need a break.

Besides, the bit you quoted, I meant "you rest a player if and when they need it" not "every player will need a break so you must rest them"

He actually tweeted that Barnes's absence is due to sickness

Must have caught it off of Poyet, they should stop using tongues.

They can but the problem is most footballer play with niggles and are on the edge of physical condition pushing that bit harder makes injuries far more likely and I would rather Leo sits out the first hour tonight than 6 games with an injury, at this point of the season it's a squad game and that could play to our advantage.

 

[Max Paper]

Can someone shunt the commentators next door up?

 

[Wilko]

I understanding resting Ulloa at some point but NOT when he has just scored a hat-trick. He must be buzzing.

 

[Acker79]

He has to be rested sometime and he isn't going to rest him for Palace or Bolton is he?

There's 8 days between those games. Why not rest him for Barnsley if needed? Still, there's a difference between "we really want him at his best for bolton/palace" and "pfft, it's only bristol". I'm not concerned about him being dropped, I'm talking about the "it's only bristol" attitude in comments around the resting, and what such an attitude could represent about the team's attitude and application to the game.

From BBC Sport 10.01mins Paul Anerson conceedes a freee kick for a foul on Inigo Calderon. Calderon takes the indirect free kick. Since when was a foul an indirect free kick.
