humdrum

Yeah, the roar when the VAR onside was made was mental where I was. voice is absolutely gone now I am home. Worth noting that the support from the fans every time we have conceded this year has been mental! the fans are now really trying to lift the team. such a contrast to previous years when it would be groans and moaning...

I agree it unsettled us, but now was the time to give the understudies some minutes at 4-1/4-2 up, not rotating is what fucked us towards the end of last season, we got injuries and when we needed to call on players they weren't up to speed.

I didn't see it listed as being effected on TFL? https://tfl.gov.uk/status-updates/major-works-and-events/26-december#on-this-page-1 [EDIT] Looks like Sunday service. And TFL showing trains up until Midnight unless I am reading it wrong. https://tfl.gov.uk/tube/timetable/piccadilly?fromText=Finsbury+Park+Underground+Station&toText=Cockfosters+Underground+Station&FromId=940GZZLUFPK&ToId=940GZZLUCKS&btnGo=Go&SelectedDate=sunday&SelectedTime=23&direction=

I would maybe suggest Cockfosters then it’s just a trip on the underground to either Finsbury Park or the arsenal underground stations. I’m presuming the underground is running…

That is one of the most corrupt performances from a ref I have ever seen. we were crap second half and some woeful finishing. but oh my god there was like 3 clear penalties amd at least a couple of booking for their CB's for pulling Jesus to the floor.

Not sure how you can rule out a goal for "contact" but then not give a penalty for wrestling Eddie in the box,...

How have they not given that as a goal. its clearly the defender that plays it.

HAHAHHA, I can't even commit on such a stupid post.

It's still a red card. even if it is for retaliationm there is no rule saying you can elbow someone if they fouled you. i mean fucking come on..

Just for reference this wasn't checked by VAR or a booking

Also the defender that wasn't sent off for the foul on Saka that led to the penalty. how he stayed on I will never know.

I know I am biased but that has to be the clearest red card in a while. how you can stop, step back and swing your elbow at a player and not get sent off is absolutely ridiculous.

Just seen the incident where Son has had the ball kicked right at him, hope his OK....

Alright there scholesy, calm down...

It's not like no Chelsea fans can go, I believe that anyone that brought tickets before the sanctions where put in place can still go. its just that since the sanctions new sales can't be made, same as there last home game. Sporting integrity though. I mean fucking talk about lack of self awareness. They wonder why people hate them. Also... https://www.mfc.co.uk/news/a-statement-from-middlesbrough-fc

Fernandes is such a cheat.

The closer analogy would be if you pushed a keeper as he was taking a goal kick, the first Gabi foul the ball wasn't in play, and it also caused a foul throw and as a.) it was a foul throw and b.) the ball wasn't in play. You can't play advantage...

That isn't right though, I like Dale but it clearly was a foul throw. and you can't play advantage if the ball is "dead". its semantics I know but all the people going letter of the law. the point is he jumped to throw it over martinelli.

The ref has been shocking as well his given Spurs every possible decision he can.

Burnley are such a shitty team, time wasted from the like the 10th minute saying that thow the ref only added on 4 minutes is a joke(not sure we would have scored however). they should have had two players sent off in the opening 20 minutes but that would have probably made it harder. I'll be interested to see Dyche comments on the diving and time wasting from his team... Think this game highlights our need for a striker that can play as a target man we can aim for when we can't work the spaces. Hope they get relegated.

So there an interesting post from theatheletic regarding Liverpool's postponement of the first round of the carabao cup. Reports are also that Liverpool submitted their request for postponement before the results of the second round of tests returned. All Seems perfectly above board...
