    I've never thought about that before, that's a brilliant description.

    His range of passing, particularly low/ground passes is exceptional for a centre back. He's part defender, part playmaker. Always forward, always finding a specific player. No hoof, no hope. He's just fantastic.

    Rivalry aside I hope he's well soon. Football management does seem to be punishing on mind and body like few other occupations.
  4. Hobsons Choice
    I was thinking he'd go for more of a jackboot.

    That's how a real leader behaves. Takes responsibility, owns the mistake (we all make them) then steps up. Outstanding mentality.

    Well I've just read law 12 and law 3 and there is nothing specific about what fouls can and cannot be applied when the ball is in play, handball and offside inclusive. It says this: "The referee has the authority to take disciplinary action from entering the field of play for the pre-match inspection until leaving the field of play after the match ends (including penalties (penalty shoot-out))." That's it. It does not say that this is applicable for fouls such as punching, and is not applicable for other offences. If someone gets sent off for violent conduct when the ball is not in play, they don't award a free kick or penalty. They send them off without altering the pattern of play. In the same way they also don't award penalties for fouls in the box at corners until the ball is kicked. They might card or send off a player for this activity, but after they leave the field, it's still a corner.

    Why aren't outfield players sent off for picking up a dead ball and placing it at the point of a free kick or on the penalty spot. There is nothing in Law 12 which specifically says this is allowed when the ball is not in play. It's just assumed that when the ball is not in play it is not handball. Why is that not applicable to fouls, but is applicable to offsides?

    That arsenal dive penalty decision was appalling. Almost as appalling as the commentators saying it was obvious. Honestly I've really not enjoyed the football this week in spite of our win. Something is stinking the joint out and no one is saying ANYTHING.

    I've just seen the description on motd of why they apparently gave it. Wtf. So apparently because they did not know he was offside at the time, or was going to be, it's a penalty? (If I have that correctly). Since when were decisions made on the basis of players awareness of rule infringements? If that is the reason behind the call, they were obviously trying everything they could to give it.

    Pau back in, Villa win. Best centre back for many a year at Villa.

    If they had accountability, everyone would know they don't have competence.
  12. Hobsons Choice
    Surely you can't be serious.

    Fun fact: Sunderland had nearly twice the average attendance of SHA when they were in league 1.

    Oh, man. I came on here just to make a representative for Wellingborough joke. Already done. Denied. Oh well, I'll have to wait until there is a news story about how NASA are renovating old rusty rockets.

    I,,,,,,,,,,,,,,agree.

    That would hardly hurt him these days though. He could steal the children of his base supporters and they'd still vote for him.
  17. Hobsons Choice
    Exactly. The fact he is saying this means he absolutely would prefer Trump. He has Trump by the balls, and can run rings round him.
  18. Hobsons Choice
    Yes please. I know folks are down on it but I'd still like to have a play.
  19. Hobsons Choice
    **** me. If we had any luck..... It's the bloody hope that kills you. If all these players come back and can't get their form/quality back we ain't gonna have the ffp room to replace them. Hopefully the shit luck will change.
