I fear Fulham will sneak past us.

Are they showing different angles of the Arsenal penalty on MOTD compared to Sky earlier?

A few on here were saying it shouldn’t have been a penalty but based on what I’ve seen there it looked a penalty to me (plus Linekar, Murphy and Shearer).

Initially on Sky the angles suggested it wasn't but they showed an incriminating angle eventually.

Really looking forward to the Leeds game- talk about chalk and cheese.

 

[The Wizard]

Well, that was rubbish from Pope and also from Mee and Tarkowski letting a lofted ball go over them, surprisingly.

Leeds one up

Leeds one up

My only compensation is that I have Bamford in my fantasy team.
Hopefully we'll be watching Leeds closely as we're up there in three weeks time.

 

[Motogull]

I want a draw from this game.

I'm sure Potter will watch them closely several times before picking a random formation out of his hat followed by 11 random names that don't fit the formation. Maybe the barndoor hobbits will have scored by then?

The co commentator in this game who I always forget the name of is so annoying. Just shut up for 5 seconds.

Agreed, I thought No Penalty but I seem to be completely out of touch.

I'm not watching but is it Garry Birtles? Loves the sound of his own voice and thinks all other footballers are shit.

Its 2020.. if something happens in the penalty area, its a penalty. If something doesnt happen in the penalty area, its a penalty. Very simple.

Didn't Burnley used to have a hard tackling Midfielder called Stephens? Whatever happened to him?

And if it happens outside the box

penalty

Had a hamstring injury since September lol. Although he's gone up in the World since his move to Burnley. A whole place up to 16th!

How the hell is that a foul on Meslier?

 

[The Fits]

That pen highlights what VAR has done to the game and decision making in particular. In real time I felt it was stonewall, on the slow mo replay I felt Pope got a touch. He also obviously took out Bamford. So now I don't know. Before VAR I would have known, now I just do not know what is and isn't correct any more.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

That’s never a foul on the leeds keeper.

Another frustration of VAR is why didn’t the ref just let that play out then review?

 

[R. Slicker]

This Ref likes Leeds, doesn't he?
