What a crap penalty.

Deserved to miss with that awful run-up.

 

[BaZ87]

Sounds like the Everton - City game could be off after a load of positive tests at City.

It is!

Yep, needed Barnes or Perez to take them.

Hit the woodwork, not going well for us. Hopefully we can sub Iheanacho off for Vardy

It's off. I can't believe they cannot put a team out with a squad of 25+ players. Citeh should lose 3 points.

And yet they still took us apart quite comfortably, I see Steve Bruce blamed his ineptness on covid, only 11 days after saying the players couldn’t do the same after the Leeds defeat

 

[Kelt]

Oh well, with the Everton match off it'll give me a chance to watch The Two Towers Extended version.

 

[Rotty]

I thought the rule was its tough luck like any other injury

Nope they set the precedent when they called off the villa/toon game

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Selfish from Zaha but a great finish.

 

[el_dazza]

Shame it was that little scrote that scored.

At least all the toon players will be ok, as we did our part by staying in our own half and attempting to socially distance from their players during the whole game.

 

[mysticsniper]

Balls

 

[BaZ87]

Selfish from Zaha but a great finish.

Yea, he really didn't deserve that goal after not playing the pass to Benteke earlier in the move.

In fairness to him, I probably wouldn't fancy Benteke to score a 1 on 1 either

 

[Maundie]

Vardy's on, chances of a dive for a penalty from him

 

[Fubsy]

I'm a little teapot.

Why does it take the BBC 27 minutes to catch up with OcUK Football Stadium?

Vardy's on, chances of a dive for a penalty from him

He's really got under your skin hasn't he

 

[mysticsniper]

Two points dropped against Palace today. Iheanacho should have done a lot better, hopefully he'll be dropped for the next game.

 

[Maundie]

He's really got under your skin hasn't he

Vardy, Kane and Sterling really are cheats, try their level best to force contact to 'win' penalties yet everyone seems to be happy with them constantly diving but as soon as a foreign player does it they're back page news and (insert name of any great English player from the past) must be turning in their grave.

It's the hypocrisy of it that gets to me, never do any of the three I've mentioned ever get called out by pundits (jeez even Kane gets applause for backing in and taking players out dangerously in the air), they call it clever play but foreign players get labelled at any opportunity.

 

[planty]

I don't disagree with the general point, but seeing the same post in every match day thread is quite nauseating. Particularly when a player has just got on the pitch, and hasn't done the thing you're complaining about for weeks.
