Greenlizard0 Premier League Football Thread ** spoilers ** [6th - 8th February 2026]

[maj]

Well that's just bizarre.

 

[Mark1989]

It’s the rule and the law and I get that but really pointless as there both as bad as each other and city scored anyway

 

[Trusty]

jobsworths everywhere

 

[fez]

‘There’s a smell of the game’
Neville is so eloquent lmao

That rule is getting changed next year then, you clearly can play advantage lmao

Yeah, they play advantage all the time. I wonder if the fact Haaland fouled him as well changed it.

You can play advantage all you like as long as you aren't worried about a head injury.

 

[Slogan]

Common sense says just allow the goal but common sense doesn't exist with these idiots.

 

[Purdy]

tbf some folks on here dumb as Dom saying 3 games missing over and over

 

[Mark1989]

Even weaker now on next game as Dom been our best player over all

 

[Fubsy]

Not for that foul.

Straight red is an auto 3 game ban I thought?

Edit: I am wrong, only for violent conduct.

 

[Slogan]

Straight red is an auto 3 game ban I thought?

Only for excessive force I think. I believe it'll be a one game ban (could be wrong!)

 

[manic111]

Straight red is an auto 3 game ban I thought?

Think it's only serious foul play, no? Might be wrong

 

[C Kent]

Suppose they figured, the game is won anyway, just send off our best player and give him a suspension

 

[manic111]

Be really funny if City lose the title by one goal

 

[Purdy]

Hell yeah Erling video the homophobe

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

At least the fraud can’t play Dom right back for a few games, perhaps a defender in defence?

 

[BaZ87]

The inconsistencies we see with those penalty decisions is beyond ridiculous. Alisson fouls him so it's hard to argue that it's not a penalty but you have and will continue to see the exact same things not given countless times with the argument being they lost possession of the ball. It's lucky dip officiating this season summed up by the farcical decision at the end.

Despite that, we have ourselves to blame for the way we dropped so deep at 1-0, inviting City on to us.

"Clear denial of a goals scoring opportunity" is the wording of the law i beleive.

Halaad was AHEAD of him and there is not even a goalie in goal. You can't get a more clear goal scoring opportunity than this. The pull on his shirt denied him.

Therefore, straight red.

We have Slot to blame on the sitting back it isn’t first time this season he has done it

He did it last year but he brought on Endo to aid that etc he isn’t even doing that now to help the team control it.

It’s going to a be tough ask to get into top four and possible even nick 5th

We’re far too inconsistent. Not enough squad depth either

This title defence is shocking

 

[scarps]

Its one game for denying a goal scoring opportunity. Unless it was a reckless dangerous tackle, which it wasn't

 

[Slogan]

Therefore, straight red.

 
Wasn't denying the red but the punishment that comes with straight red for this particular offence.

 

[bingham67]

First league double for City over Liverpool since 1937!
