There's something John Gregory circa 1999 about Arteta. A man in his 40's with suspiciously dark hair, whining about everything whilst virtually watching the match standing on the pitch.

Wonder if he has shares in Grecian 2000 like John did

Is it next season Forest really need to be thinking of ffp or is that not a thing anymore?

 

Cannot fvcking stand them obviously but very much at peace with what they are doing, which is always just enough.

 

We didn’t even have it in us to do that and we know why.

 

Makes me realise what Forest, Derby, Cov fans had to endure from 2015 onwards regarding us 

They aren’t really anywhere near FFP having sold Johnson for £50m, as his home grown it all goes in the accounts rather then spread out over a contract.

 

I think our dislike of Forest clouds judgement, they did well yesterday against a decent villa side. They’ve made good signings, we are way behind.

Good to see Arsenal at large getting pelters from The Athletic about the behaviour of not just their manager, but the club at large in issuing a press release in support of him raging against a marginal decision

 

Being contrite is not enough for Arteta, he isn`t a child having a tantrum, nor is it for the club, using their power to win the vote of their own convened kangaroo court - makes Liverpool look even handed.

Just on the Liverpool crowd thinf, if you go a midweek game the crowd is definitely predominantly local 

I know they have the L postcode ballot too where they make a conscious effort to reserve a number of tickets to be sold to fans who live around the local area. Don’t know any other clubs who do that. To be fair I know two lads with Liverpool season tickets, one is from Scunthorpe and the other Wakefield. Lad from scun has had the ticket in his family for about 35 years and the lad from Wakefield got one this season after being on the waiting list since he was born so 31 years. Fair ****s if you ask me.

This guy at spurs playing the last post on the thing is very good. There’s been some shockers over the weekend.

Yes. There really have!

[Zear0]

Abysmal defending from the full back there. Backed off and gave him him the whole world to run at. 

[StanSP]

Early goal for Spurs 

[trabuch]

ugh

[Tuna]

Spurs rampant

[Tuna]

Such a lucky goal though

[Fox92]

I don’t like Chelsea but I’d rather them win this so everyone shuts up about Spurs.

[CrispinLA in Texas]

Chelsea are dreadful.....what a miss

[SouthStandUpperTier]

It's written. Spurs are winning the PL.

[Tuna]

What a goal that would have been

[StanSP]

Spurs are electric

Would have been brilliant, very slick.

Nothing to check it’s offside, get it done and over with

[kingkisnorbo]

Imagine thinking that's offside. 

[trabuch]

Hand?? Sort it out Neville.

Wait til they play Man City in a couple of weeks first.

Here's an idea VAR get 30 seconds to make a decision otherwise on field decision prevails.

He corrected himself. That was his thoughts on first look.

[HybridFox]

This drawing lines rubbish needs to get in the bin. They're not in Primary School (debatable).

 

Get the automatic offsides used at the World Cup and no arguments

Should be. If it takes that long to make a decision it’s not clear / obvious it’s an error.
