The Round Ball Game - II

[Edgy 2]

Some biased commentating from Shearer in the ManU v Wolves match on Amazon Prime, I thought.
More concentrated on ManU and their position in the table than on the better play that Wolves were providing.

It was ever thus

You seem surprised.......


I felt your ( partner’s) pain at the end. And a deflection always makes it just that bit worse........

I was watching too: pain shared is pain halved, I suppose!


I spotted signs saying 'Visit Malta'; is Mario sponsoring them, I wonder.
Mind you, Aeroflot were also advertising.

That reminds me of the old gag: Visit Russia, before Russia visits you.

And so the ABU bias rears its ugly head again.

I was watching on Bein Sports, and according to the commentators there, NOTHING that Man Utd did was right, and EVERYTHING that Wolves did was perfect.

And there was I thinking that it was goals that won trophies, not possession or attempts at goal or number of corners. De Gea needs a two-week holiday after ALL the attempts Wolves rained on his goal – not!

In the meantime, Leicester’s last-minute equaliser against was well-deserved. But of course – how silly of me!

We really don't deserve to be above everybody else in the table, bar Liverpool, you know. See, the table DOES lie.

Pah!

Owls 2 - Boro’ 1 not only a greatly needed win but put one over Warnock!

Who needs a manager, cloughie? Good end to the year...six-pointer for you on the First, I notice!
We've got a nae-pointer this afternoon - I reckon Rangers will be out to give the Buddies a richt guid doin' today after we knocked them out the Cup a couple of weeks back. However, hope springs eternal. Come on you Buddies!

Yeah, and bet they don't get handed a 3-0 defeat from the beaks for covid violations, like what happened to a certain wee team from Paisley! Still !

Or Leyton Orient when they had to concede to Miserinho's lot.

Schoolboy error Mario (citeh)

Always better to stay away from schoolboys.

More frustration here...HT 0-0...credit to defiant Magpies......
We need some flair brought into midfield, so let's see fit-again Thiago or Shaqiri on soon....tight at the top, every point matters now...

Last Premiership game of 2020....some year wasn't it?..... Who knows what 2021 will do to the fixture list....

0-0. Fed up. But well done Magpies, very good defending, fiercely competitive....oh, those near misses.....
There are much worse things. Still Top at the Year's end...

jc - These footballing powers that be haven’t got a clue - the land is in Lockdown aka Tier 3 and 4 and footballers are out there twice a week, with all the contact risks that includes and yet these disgusting rules are applied. Surely on any sensible health grounds the season should have been suspended!

Liverpool 0 Toon 0

God bless Tier 4

[cloughie]

Liverpool 0 Toon 0

God bless Tier 4

Bruce not available yet then?

Bruce not available yet then?

I understand he is to be knighted
