Football 18/19

[Hugh Jass]

It takes an impressively shit afternoon to score an own goal, miss a penalty and have a man sent off in the same match. But we managed it.

Few years ago Jon Walters scored two own goals and missed a pen in a game against Chelsea. No red card though.

City have already won the league cup.

How happy are you if it ends with that being your only title this year

How happy are you that it's the last trophy you won seven years ago?

And before anyone's feathers get ruffled again, I'M JOKING. Playful joking.

Similarly City - ostensibly the best football team on the planet - likewise. 

I think they need to retain a league title and win a few big champions league matches before we talk in those terms.

I am ecstatic at every trophy win. Never thought I would see the day. Its been a great season again from City regardless of anything else we may win.

Soz mate. Teams have given up trying against them for a couple years now. They’re that good. How could they not be? It’s a test tube footie team.

just got free BT Sport access with my broadband, only to discover it's got naff-all Prem games on there. I'd been thinking it had the biggest chunk of games. 

Can't complain for a freebie I guess, tho I'm not sure who'd think it was worth paying for.

We got given an insane cheap Sky deal which we took and it feels like we've been done out of a lot of good games due to BT getting them, they got a lot of the good Saturday games. I'm sure sky used to have a monopoly on all of this but it's all a bit even these days. Amazon prime stepping in will either be a gift or a curse with this.

It was just a joke referencing Easty's posts. 

I know, I wasn't having a go.  

At the end of Friday's match I'd thought "so what was lucky about that one?", and already had my piss-take list. Your post was just an easy launching point for me to post it.

That's depressing. Welcome to Breixt Britain

Was Strachan not just saying that no abuse from the terraces which is directed at players, should be tolerated? Regardless of whether it is racial or whether it is directed at at a criminal who has served his time for the offence he has commited.

I don't think he is trying to make light of racial abuse abuse at all or had any ill intentions. Yes it is a strange way of getting his point across and there was absolutely no way need to bring Johnson into the discussion. Considering Sky employ people that spit at children, it does imo seem a bit of an over reaction from them as I had not previously seen any media out cry in relation to Strachans comments.

I agree, I think society should allow for people to say stupid things, apologize and then everyone move on.

It's like nobody wants top four. Great result for Chelsea and United today.

As I said earlier in the week, Arsenal away from home are woeful.

He will not be as mouthy after the final.

Strap yourself in lads. There's at least one game every night this week.

I'm happy enough to watch CL games I'm interested in, but nothing more than that. Whereas sometimes I'll hooky-stream watch 5 or 6 live Prem games over Saturday and Sunday.

Anyway, I was just surprised at how few Prem games BT sport have. As I said, I thought they had much more.

even more shit than I'd been thinking. The free account I have won't allow me to cast to TV.
