This Weekend’s Other Games 6/11/20

[miller0863]

Thought this was worth starting a thread as I never thought I would say this but..

Southampton are currently top of the Premier League.

Southampton 1-0 Newcastle
20 mins gone

[Insidious]

Southampton are a tidy little outfit these days.

Fair play to them.

[ianlfc]

don't forget the 0-0 in the match before. To think some silly poor buggers paid £15 for the pleasure of watching it.

[Steveo]

Southampton are a tidy little outfit these days.

Fair play to them.

Klopp of the Alps - Hasenhuttl

Like Jurgen - but can yodel too

[miller0863]

I’d be interested to see the viewing figures for all the PPV games

[Steveo]

Walcott with a terrible miss... does everything right but then misses the target..

[miller0863]

How was that not a penalty??

[miller0863]

F/T Southampton 2-0 Newcastle

[Kev0909]

Newcastle are a weird team, shit hot one game shite the other

Went for a draw with ingsy being out and i thought newcastle was doing well enough.

Silly me

[miller0863]

About to kick off. Everton v Utd
Draw works for me coz whoever wins gets a boost I don’t want either of them to have

[Steveo]

Everton sitting very deep - all 11 in their own half

[skyebo]

Everton sitting very deep - all 11 in their own half

Why ?. They're at home and playing a team lacking confidence.

[Steveo]

Why ?. They're at home and playing a team lacking confidence.

My thoughts exactly - It was just a for few mins to be fair but they dropped so deep - Fernandes had a free hit and got a corner... More of a game now but still too deep for the home team almost playing in the break.


1:0 Everton

Bernard

[miller0863]

Bernard from the edge of the box, well placed shot in De Gea’s right hand corner rather than hit with pace.
1-0 Everton

[miller0863]

Both teams look pretty crap so far to be fair

[Steveo]

1:1 Fernandes header

[Balinkay]

Stop the count!!

[miller0863]

1-1
Ball floated into Everton’s box, Fernandes rose unchallenged to head in from 10 yards.

[ianlfc]

I fucking detest both teams

[Steveo]

2:1 United - Rashford

Think it’s a Fernandes second tbh

Don’t think Rashford touched it.

Edit: Fernandez x2 for sure

[justme]

bastarding thugs are losing good..No doubt we will blamed for it.

[LEGS]

I fucking detest both teams

Is the correct answer.

The draw is probably the best result but if a Utd win keeps Ole in the job I can stomach that.

Utd are all over them to be honest you’d think Everton played in Europe in midweek.

[Kev0909]

Everton have been shit lately since the glory of being top of the table, must of got to their little smalltime heads

Expect utd to win

Oh yeah that fernandes is totally shit ain't he, yet without him utd would be 17th

[miller0863]

Keane goes up for a challenge with Martial, he punches then kicks him in the face but it’s obviously accidental as Everton aren’t that kind of team.
No action taken

[justme]

First time i have ever seen that marital was elbowed in the face and kicked in the face in the same movement.

[miller0863]

Utd are so shite I have decided I don’t mind them winning this one as I want Everton to lose every fuckin game after the derby debacle

[Steveo]

That would be Karma

[ianlfc]

Are these 2 included in the so called top 6 ?

[justme]

Bottom 6 is more likely

[teesred]

bastarding thugs are losing good..No doubt we will blamed for it.

Was "bastarding" a spelling mistake or deliberate? Either way I like it. New form of insult/endearment.

[justme]

I made the word up..

[justme]

Evertons intensity has dropped when trying to close the ball. They dont seem capable of doing it without fouling. I thought sheffield united were aggressive against us, But they were fair. So its possible to do. Everton cant seem to manage it..

[miller0863]

I want another Everton red card

[miller0863]

James Rodriguez is such a moaning pansy. Whinging at every single opportunity

[justme]

I see that cretin Ederson has come out and backed Pickford "it can happen to anyone".. And apparently hes compared it to the Mane tackle a couple of seasons back ,on himself.

[RedNoodle]

James Rodriguez is such a moaning pansy. Whinging at every single opportunity

He played in Spain for Real Madrid. What did you expect?

[skyebo]

I see that cretin Ederson has come out and backed Pickford "it can happen to anyone".. And apparently hes compared it to the Mane tackle a couple of seasons back ,on himself.

Mane had every right to go for the ball, very unlucky to get sent off. Pickford should have gone, but didn't. Massive difference between the two.

[RedNoodle]

Pickford makes yet another gaffe, but he doesn't get punished (no surprise there) for it.

[RedNoodle]

Maquire scythes down Digne, but because the offside flag had been raised he gets away with it.

[justme]

Everton are saved Iwobi is coming on

[Balinkay]

Bruno's studs end up in Allan's ankle... ref misses it.

[RedNoodle]

Allan rolls around trying to get Fernades sent off. You can see the former is tailor made for his club. Will that incident be mentioned by the meedja as much as other incidents/players? Will it ****.

[RedNoodle]

Bruno's studs end up in Allan's ankle... ref misses it.

Nope. The contentious bit of the challenge was Allan's reaction to it.

[RedNoodle]

Cavani makes the game safe for the red Mancs as a result of the BS pushing up trying to get an equaliser.

[Balinkay]

How Docoure didn't hit the target with either of his late chances I'll never know.

[justincredible]

Looks like the top of the table celebration champagne went to Everton's head (and legs) a few weeks ago.
Phuck off back down the table ya dürty scumbags. Lolz...

[RedNoodle]

How Docoure didn't hit the target with either of his late chances I'll never know.

A combination of leaning back and f-all composure.

[Kev0909]

Fernandes show today best player they have imo even though certain people don't rate him on here, that's what he can do

[justme]

Aye get ta fuck you cheating filthy pigs

[Kev0909]

I see pickford is trying to karate people again

[RedNoodle]

Scott Dann heads Palace in front.

[RedNoodle]

Bamford thinks he's equalises, but the goal is chalked off for a contentious offside call.

[RedNoodle]

Eze doubles Palace's lead with a free kick that goes in off the crossbar.

"All too Eze".

[RedNoodle]

Bamford puts the ball in the net and this time it's not chalked off.

[skyebo]

Stop the game now, it's my prediction.

[RedNoodle]

Helder Costa scores an own goal, but the keeper really should have stopped it.

3-1.

[ianlfc]

bayern v Dortmund at 5.30 should be a good game.

[RedNoodle]

Ayew makes it 4-1.

[Kev0909]

Only just realised clyne's back, fair play

[miller0863]

Usual capitulation to Utd by the bitter shite. 1 point from 12, normal service well and truly resumed.

[ianlfc]

Usual capitulation to Utd by the bitter shite. 1 point from 12, normal service well and truly resumed.

I never watched the 2nd half ,I'd seen enough in the first half so went and got a haircut.

[RedNoodle]

McGoldrick puts Sheffield United ahead and destroys another of my predictions.

Can anyone spare me a point?

[RedNoodle]

Tammy Abraham equalises for Chelsea.

[RedNoodle]

Chilwell puts Chelsea 2-1 up.

[miller0863]

Sheff Utd definitely missing Henderson in goal

[Kev0909]

Sheff Utd definitely missing Henderson in goal

That and the fact they have 0 creativity

Poor brewy

[RedNoodle]

Brewster had four touches of the ball in the first half.

In a previous game he had the least touches of any player (I'm not sure if that included the keepers) on the pitch.

[miller0863]

Brewster off after an hour. Still looking like a boy playing against men.
Massive risk for Sheffield Utd to pay so much money for him, same as Bournemouth when they bought Ibe and Solanke from us. Amazing how clubs appear so willing to give us huge sums for our unproven youngsters.

Don't knock it Miller. If they are that stupid/desperate, all the better for us.

[miller0863]

They might have been better taking Div they way they play

[RedNoodle]

Thiago Silva puts Chelsea 3-1 up.

[miller0863]

Total capitulation here by Sheff Utd now 4-1 down

[RedNoodle]

Werner gets Chelsea's fourth.

[RedNoodle]

Total capitulation here by Sheff Utd now 4-1 down

Things are looking bleak for them.

[miller0863]

Replaced a really good keeper with a weak one, lost possibly their best defender to injury and spent £26m on an untried kid upfront who doesn’t fit their playing style.

No surprise they’re struggling

[justme]

Since the return from lockdown. i dont think they have actually won a game?? or maybe once..

[Insidious]

bayern v Dortmund at 5.30 should be a good game.

And it certainly was!

Hopefully Ole's lot did enough to keep him in the job.

[RedNoodle]

Soucek gives West Ham the lead in stoppage time.

[RedNoodle]

A Fulham player goes down in the box after the slightest of touches, and yet again the first thing/player this **** of a commentator says is "well after what you saw happen with Mo Salah the other day .....".

What a ****!!!

Like I keep saying, expect us/him to get give sweet fa in and around the box for a while.

[RedNoodle]

Fulham get a penalty and Lookman takes the ball of Mitrovic, but then proceeds to take a diabolical penalty.

FT West Ham 1-0 Fulham

[miller0863]

Quite happy for us to develop a siege mentality anyway Noods, we never did get the sort of assistance Man Utd are still getting to this day.
The Derby was a step too far mind with outright cheating by the officials being brushed under the carpet

[RedNoodle]

That's the trouble Miller. There's f-all consistency. It's a problem that is currently plaguing every area of life. Treat everyone the same/hold them to the same standards, rather than picking and choosing who you punish or give a free pass to depending on personal agendas and professional/social circles.

[miller0863]

Aye. The Derby debacle still rankles, even to the fact that we were ignored when legitimately asking for some clarification yet when Everton transgressed yet again, when they asked, they got what they wanted.
Absolutely nothing been made of all that, other than we are being made out to be whingers.

[justme]

I'm still confused.. They say they cant re-referee a game.. yet can get involved to change red cards if it seems to harsh.. So digne red was changed to a yellow.. so he was only banned for a game Yet they didnt change the outcome of Pickfords challenge when it was clearly violent conduct.

[miller0863]

He did it again today, not as bad but should have been a penalty and a yellow yet absolutely nothing given.

[justme]

Didn't see the incident, I switched off near the end. But hes a nasty piece of work.Suits the bitters down to the ground.

[LEGS]

He did it again today, not as bad but should have been a penalty and a yellow yet absolutely nothing given.

Not according to Tim Cahill it was a foul on Pickford.

I mean yes you are an Everton man but seriously STFU man you sound like you are on crack.

[fagin]

What a ****!!!

I think Klopp needs to have a chat with Salah personally otherwise he could lose some legit penalty calls.
Looking back at the last incident =it was obviously a penalty for Salah but he did look like he was trying to win an Oscar after the fact

[miller0863]

Problem is, without the theatrics they ain’t getting a penalty because the officials are absolutely clueless

[fagin]

Problem is, without the theatrics they ain’t getting a penalty because the officials are absolutely clueless

Fair play mate..and...Good point !!

[miller0863]

Every game I watch currently, whether with or without VAR, there are always a number of just ridiculous decisions made by the officials. And having the advantage of being able to watch repeated replays of the incident on a screen does not appear to make the slightest bit of positive difference to the correct decision making process

[CCTV]

He loses some legit penalty calls as is and that will continue imo as sometimes refs/var just prefer to not see things. I think this can be said about many teams and players. One week a defender grappling could concede a penalty, most other weeks they don't.

I think we should back Mo and paradoxically suggest a bias in the wider media. Leave them to defend themselves.

[CCTV]

Probably best that suggestion comes from Klopp, or Mo, or Hendo.

That one yesterday against Leeds if possible was even worse than Manes against Everton.
He was bloody pointing were he wanted the ball !!

[Balinkay]

The thing is, the rules changed for this season. The end of the shirt sleeve is apparently what's now considered handball.

So both calls (modulo shite line paining) are correct. As was VVD's for the Pickford challenge.

[miller0863]

Cracking game at the Hawthorns
H/T 0-0. The only shot on target came from the home side along with5 other wayward efforts. Spurs managed one off target effort in the whole 45 minute period.

[miller0863]

Ten minutes to go and it’s still
WBA 0-0 Spuds
Both teams with 11 attempts and 2 each on target

[Kev0909]

Ten minutes to go and it’s still
WBA 0-0 Spuds

Didn't you know spurs are gonna win the league?

[Balinkay]

Spurs lead through Kane. Keeper in no man's land for a cross.

[miller0863]

And Harry Kane gives Spurs the points with a close range header in the final minute

[Kev0909]

Spurs lead through Kane. Keeper in no man's land for a cross.

Haha, still don't look like title winners do they?

WBA missing perreria (who is probably best player) and the mighty Ivanovic too after they got corona'd

[RedNoodle]

Didn't you know spurs are gonna win the league?

You just had to jinx it didn't you.

[miller0863]

Best front three in the world, according to a couple of dick ‘eads on talk sport on Friday

[justme]

What the fk was the west-brom keeper doing there? calm half way then stopped

[skyebo]

Tottenham play City at home after the break. Between us, we could put City out of the running as we have Leicester at home. We would have 22 points if we win both and they would have 11. Massive advantage, even at this stage.

[Kev0909]

You just had to jinx it didn't you.

pff I don't want to see WBA in this league anyway, and spurs will bottle it at some point or kane will get injured eitherone

[Balinkay]

Haha, still don't look like title winners do they?

WBA missing perreria (who is probably best player) and the mighty Ivanovic too after they got corona'd

Neither do we or City tbf.

[RedNoodle]

Anthony Taylor, who has awarded more penalties than any other PL referee since the begining of last season, and who has awarded Leicester City three penalties in the last three of their games he has reffed, awards them yet another, one that could be seen as 'very harsh'.

1-0

[southernboy]

I thought it was a clear penalty. I’d be disappointed if we weren’t given it in the same circumstances.

[skyebo]

1-0

He'll be on Rodgers' christmas card list.

[justme]

He'll be on Rodgers' christmas card list.

be one of the names in the envelope?

[skyebo]

be one of the names in the envelope?

lol

[RedNoodle]

Taylor awards Leicester another penalty.

[RedNoodle]

Patricio saves Vardy's penalty.

It's going to like a cup shootout when Leicester City play Man U.

[Kev0909]

Patricio saves Vardy's penalty.

It's going to like a cup shootout when Leicester City play Man U.

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

[justme]

Going back to the Man-city scenario if they lose the next two. With Poch not taking a job so far..I could see him taking Baldys position at City. Man-united will have to work quickly to get Pochettino or they will be stuck with ole at the wheel.

[miller0863]

City just as likely to win the next mind.

[Nineteenx]

Brenda's bummers looking very solid and good on the break if not spectacular, just as they were last season, right up until boxing day when we bummed them 4-0

[Nineteenx]

Wolves are well below their levels of last season without Jota, their loss is our gain

[miller0863]

Rangers 7-0 Hamilton

[CCTV]

Rangers 7-0 Hamilton

Klopp out - bring him home !!

[miller0863]

Rangers 8-0 Hamilton

[Steveo]

Rangers 8-0 Hamilton

Got lucky... :D :D

[miller0863]

21 attempts 14 on target, the keeper made 6 saves. Hamilton 0 attempts at goal at all.
They’re bottom of the league for a reason

[fagin]

Villa take a lead at 44 seconds ......VAR poss offside

[fagin]

24mins and Villa get a goal that stands

[Nineteenx]

Rangers 8-0 Hamilton

Farmers League

[miller0863]

Arsenal 0-2 Villa

[fagin]

3-0 now

[RedNoodle]

Robbie Lyle has just ordered himself a new Bugatti.

[miller0863]

Wow. Who saw that coming??

[ianlfc]

cracking 3rd from Villa.

[Insidious]

Wow. Who saw that coming??

Arsenal fans must be concerned. 4 losses from 8 games is a massive concern for them.

[fagin]

Arsenal fans must be concerned. 4 losses from 8 games is a massive concern for them.

Someone on the forum alluded to the fact that following one of their wins that it was obvious that Arteta was the brain behind Peps ManC when there. lol !

[Nineteenx]

Arsenal fans must be concerned. 4 losses from 8 games is a massive concern for them.

They must be seething, they were robbed by VAR in 2 of the games they lost, robbed at 0-0 v Leicester, and had they scored first the way they have been operating after doing so, I've got to be honest and admit they probably win that one, as SKy covered extensively in today's post match, Walker does stupid things and does make mistakes, one such mistake was playing the ball in his own area with his foot head high, dangerous and reckless and I still have absolutely no idea how VAR failed to rule that as penalty, they lost that game 1-0

[Nineteenx]

Arsenal fans must be concerned. 4 losses from 8 games is a massive concern for them.

They are playing the team who dicked us 7-2

[Nineteenx]

Someone on the forum alluded to the fact that following one of their wins that it was obvious that Arteta was the brain behind Peps ManC when there. lol !

Perhaps lost in translation, it was meant tongue in cheek because we always get Mancs nosing around here, although I was serious about Arteta likely masterminding and being behind what UAE FC did without the ball as since his departure Arsenal have in general got a lot better without the ball depsite having lesser players and UAE FC's defending and work without the ball has gone downhill drastically

[Insidious]

They are playing the team who dicked us 7-2

They are indeed and there's definitely discussion to be had about where individual results went wrong, but for a club/fanbase that are desperate to get Champion's League football again and all that goes with that (particularly funds to bolster the side) they're bound to be apprehensive about what the future holds when it seems that more of the sides around them are growing in stature whilst they are seemingly stagnating.

I'd like to see them do well, but it's not been the best of starts just yet.

[eggy81]

Arteta is no better than ole or lampard. Everton have lost 3 on the bounce too now. Its up to pep to stop us again. I think city have a great run of fixtures coming up now and a striker back. I reckon they'll kick on now and start scoring goals. We need to keep going.

[eggy81]

They are playing the team who dicked us 7-2
And the team who've conceded 7 goals in their last 2 games too.
Arsenal are bang average, the same as they've been for years.
