Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [25th - 28th October 2019]

[chroniclard]

Was going to watch the match then decided it would be boring.

 

[el_dazza]

Drove past the ground at half time.. people were streaming out

 

[Kelt]

That's gotta hurt.

 

[mysticsniper]

oh well, wasn't quite 10, but still the biggest away win in English football

 

[Minibiker]

Woah! Just went on YouTube and the Leicester highlights are on there, I had to double check it wasn't a Typo 9-0 that's one big away win

 

[TomHark]

oh well, wasn't quite 10, but still the biggest away win in English football

Nope. Burslem Port Vale 0 v 10 Sheffield United (Division Two, 1892)!

 

[planty]

Yea, it's the biggest top-flight league away win.

 

[this_is_gav]

When you've had to type the score out in letters and brackets 4 (four) times, you know there's been a mullering

 

[bigjonnyauk]

They can keep talking about comparison between the team that won the league but there’s not many from then that would get in this side.

have to admit being a fox for 40 years i was thinking this exact same thing and you would prob say only mahrez and kante would make it and i think also wes morgan then over the young calgar for now, but you would have to change the formation to 4-2-3-1

[Martini1991]

What about Robert Huth?
Maybe not now as he's 35 and retired, but surely the version of him in that title winning season would be in.

 

[el_dazza]

Happy with that half. Grealish is pushing his luck and needs to calm down.

 

[el_dazza]

Ah, 20 seconds that took.

 

[Purdy]

Happy with that half. Grealish is pushing his luck and needs to calm down.

he got booked for Sterling diving tbf

 

[sneakysnail]

How that wasn't disallowed I don't know. sterling is blocking the keeps view of the ball and offside.

 

[Azza]

* sigh *

 

[el_dazza]

Silva's been awarded the goal.. VAR really isn't our friend.

 

[sneakysnail]

I feel like they are just being **** at VAR for a joke now. How can they constantly get it so wrong?

 

[explicit4u]

Surely if Silva gets the goal Sterling is offside? It looked okay if Silva didn't get a touch.

 

[BaZ87]

So VAR has finally given a pen and it was for the softest of fouls. Fantastic.

On a serious note, I assume the reason why it has been given was because the ref didn't see the incident rather than VAR changing his decision. Either way I can't wait for Shearer and Murphy to be massive hypocrites on motd tonight saying that wasn't a foul having previously stated the exact opposite for the same challenge.

 

[Azza]

**** this.
