    Titan you have to ask yourself, in these situations "What's my exit strategy here?" and then go off and do something else. :)

    This game is dire.

    It's not a classic anyway!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,855 ✭✭✭✭Fitz*


    This game is dire alright.

    Need a defender to give an attacker a nice little kick in the box, and watch the defender fling himself to the ground to earn a penalty, in order to liven things up! :)

    Great counter by Newcastle and decent save by Olsson.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,945 ✭✭✭✭TitianGerm


    That was a great break and a very good save.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    VAR deemed what Wilson did on Mina is not a free out or a yellow? Ok then.


    From an FPL perspective I'm chuffed, but I don't get it.

    Looked like Mina was the one who started the contact (arms wrapped around Wilson) and Wilson pushed him over then?

    Yeh think so but arms around is pretty common and defenders always get away with that even if it's wrong, more so Wilson with a blatant push was deemed nothing

    Agreed, Mina taking a big chance there in the current climate .

    He looked to be stopping Wilson making a run to receive the ball though. It's one of those where the refs are most likely saying oh they're both at it so I'll ignore it.

    If they gave nothing for the Maguire one a few weeks ago you've set the bar high for holding in the box.

    Was literally thinking the same thing when Mina was doing it, they've basically deemed holding ok for Defenders any team that gets pulled for it now will rightly be like wtf.

    Glad to see my old Everton team have returned. I missed them


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Second half can't get much worse right?

    Everton most of the possession. Newcastle best chance of the game probably sums it up accurately.

    Who's whinging? You seem upset, everything ok?

    Your whinging that the same posters arent complaining about a different player diving even though people might not even be watching the game its bizzare,

    Brutal game this.

    I'm not whinging. I've already said that. Not sure why yourself or Rasta are getting so upset/put out by something I posted?

    Whinging about others whinging. Whingeception. Does that work? Nah.

    Anyway, poor game, starting to fall asleep watching it. Hoping the 4.30 match is a bit better


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,255 ✭✭✭eigrod


    Peno. Very similar to the Salah challenge


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Stonewall Pen that.

    Hilarious at Wilsons reaction tho :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,239 ✭✭✭This is it


    Taking their time. Good peno

    Edit, looked in the corner from another angle. I suppose once they go in they're good :D

    Mod: Stop with posts about "whinging" and the he said/she said type posts, stay on topic and please discuss posts and not posters


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    At least I got fantasty football points so that was a positive from conceding.


    Great save by Olsson there


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,239 ✭✭✭This is it


    Great save, worked well by Newcastle

    Hopefully the goal will open the game up a bit more.. poor game to have to watch on a dreary sunday


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer
