    Stop expecting perfection from us - top referee

    I do feel a little (tiny!) bit sorry for refs. Having to make decisions within a second which will be analysed and overanalysed by replays, TV pundits, YouTube channels, podcasts, forums such as this one…it must be pretty tough. Humans make mistakes, even basic ones, sometimes. Plenty argue that...

    World Cup Ticket Pricing

    Also to add…the problem is these events are selling out. I’m sure Covid just sent people a bit crazy and made them want to shell out anything in order to experience these occasions again. Maybe I’m remembering wrong, but it didn’t seem this bad pre-covid.

    World Cup Ticket Pricing

    Sports events are getting ridiculous now. I’m a huge fan of F1 and used to go to Silverstone every year - not any longer. The booking system is rammed and there is dynamic pricing - you’re looking at £500-900 for most grandstand seats. Each. General admission (where you don’t get a seat, you...

    1-3 not really fair but it is what is is, Leicester should be right up there easily this year. It really does say it all that I'm still fairly happy that we've given them a really good game, and this could easily have been 1-1 or 2-2.

    At the very least, I'm not f*cking half asleep as I would be the last 4 years watching The Swans...

    I'm also surprised that it was given, but the number of times we see defenders flying in just because it's marginal who's going to get the ball as it's going out...should be penalised more IMO.

    Innit...and anyway, the fact we were 8th out of 24 before today shows that we are bettering the opposition the majority of the time.

    Like many of the other games that we've lost or drawn this season, I'm just really happy that we aren't sh*t and are competitive in all of them.
