Today's Football 2018-19 Season

[Khalekan]

Trying to keep my feelings in check but really starting to think the worst for the Leicester game Monday night.

I don't doubt City's ability and desire - it's literally coming down to some kind of 'higher power' seemingly having a big influence here. I simply don't trust the organisers of this league.

I am not a man given to believe such mumbo jumbo but I am a bit wary here my own self.

That first goal the Barcodes scored.....it could have went anywhere after Terrence Trent Darby handked it but it fell straight to the only man in a position to score.

It goes anywhere else it is a penno and a red card for the RS full back.

Makes you wonder

The "Higher Power" assisting the RS is simply the Sky League heirachy

The most annoying thing for me in football atm is the line "oh the players been clever there" when they've dived to get a foul. It's not clever its deception, cheating. But they never call it out for what it is, it's an absolute cancer to the sport and it's only gonna get worse.

...and pundits don't call it out. Murphy was an absolute disgrace on MOTD, just laughing about it. He's paid public money to do that.

Leicester City?

Not this time.

But he battered Maddison last week for getting Maitland-Niles sent off

Do you want to lose or not? I have an awful feeling you might somehow scrape a point. Only because im a doom filled evertonian

I never want us to lose irrespective of how it affects other teams. I don't want them to win the league though as I want that group of clubs to stay as little as possible

I would have to stay away from here for a couple of years at least lol

 

[FOXINPEACE]

Remember you lot have won that pot.
Keep the bragging rights up.

I do kind of like the idea of another generation of the Schmeicel family winning it before they do

100% K that pen and sending off would never have happened

Would you have trusted the ref and lino to have a) seen it and b) actually given it....... Nope me neither

That has to be the most blatant dive all season. The linesman is right next to it and is flagging for a throw in not a foul.

 

[Sarnia Kevin]

So Fabinho getting a suspension then for deceiving the officials lads? Lads?

No because reasons.......

Does anybody else really not care about the ‘race for the top 4’?

It’s always the same teams so it really makes no difference to me who it is.

The race for 8th has been far more satisfying as we go toe to toe with Leicester and Watford. Wow, what a roller-coaster ride we've had and it'll come down to the last game of the season for that covered 8th spot.

League really is crap when we just don't challenge for anything, in fact once we are knocked out of the cups it's basically just a countdown to the end of the season in the hope that next season will be different (which it never is)

Same Sh*t, different shovel.

I hope Huddersfield beat United.

It would be hilarious.

...bit of competition for the last Championship play-off place over the next few hours - Derby, Middlesbrough and Bristol. Holgate playing for West Brom against Derby.
