General Premier League Thread 2023-24 Mod Note in op 27/6/23 And 21/05/24

These 12:30 kick offs are such poor entertainment. Premier league should have binned them but TNT will be showing them until 2029. Not a great investment for them.

Dreadful from ManU. As usual.

2-0

The continued faith Utd fans have in ETH is mad stuff altogether, like Stockholm Syndrome or something. A lucky draw in Anfield doesn’t cover up for how shambolic they have been at times this season.

This will be West Ham's first back to back victories against Man United since 2007. Commentator was saying Man United haven't had a single shot in the second half after 80 minutes. Up steps Rashford to blaze a shot from distance miles over the bar.

This is also now Man United's longest goalless streak since 1989.

There's a lot of bookings for dissent lately.

We aren't privy to what's being said on the pitch, as the refs are not mic'd up, but is it possible that the players are constantly in the ears of the ref and are giving dissent and that the bookings are for overstepping the mark? As in a 'I've taken enough crap, here's a yellow, now stop' kinda thing.

With Bruno as captain, it's not too farfetched. He's a pure moaner and could be rubbing off on others.

If refs kept this up across games for a couple of match weekends that would virtually stamp it out. Managers would immediately start sending teams out under instructions not to give any lip whatsoever to the officials

These are worse than when Solsklaer was in charge. Fortunate too that ref didn’t give Evans a second yellow twice.

U

He's breaking his own records too. United lost 12 games in all competitions last season from 62 matches. He's now lost 13 games already and we're only at the beginning of Christmas, not even halfway through the season, 26 games played in all competitions.

Boly sent off for Forest. Second yellow,he clearly cleared the ball and wasn't even a foul, but ref gives a second yellow, and because it's a second yellow VAR won't intervene.

Shambolic officiating.

Luton a goal up.

Horrific decision. On the angle I saw, it looks to be one of the worst I've ever seen.
