Greenlizard0 PL & Championship Football Thread ** spoilers ** [30th Aug - 1st Sept 2022]

To be fair, there's never enough time added on when teams time-waste in injury time.



I was a bit taken aback when he spoke too! Appears he's lived in London for a long time.
The most surprising thing is that he has lived in London less than the time he lived in Portugal. Didnt leave Portugal until he was 11 or something I think, the way his accent is though you would think he left Portugal at a much younger age than that
 
Part of the game, you can YT thousands of Liverpool videos doing the same, holding their thighs, running into corners
To be fair, every team does it and its equally wrong of all of them to do it. I'm 100% for a set match time and clockstopping the moment the ball isnt in play. Whether it will ever happen though I dont know.

Any team doing it in last 5 mins or so I get, Newcastle did it from the first ****** minute so no sympathy there.

Especially as when they did actually play they showed good stuff but decided to opt for **** house tactics and in the end it ****** em so happy days.
 
What can be done about this time wasting?

Physio usage / head injury maybe a 10 minute assessment?

I dont think we do it at the moment at all. Maybe in the past.

there's a world of difference running the ball into the corner in the last few minutes of a game and faking injuries from the 2nd minute of the match onwards, you get what you deserve and newcastle got theirs.
 
We were far from great but in the same way everything went our way at the weekend, everything just seemed to be going against us today. Newcastle defended well enough but every loose ball in and around their area was falling their way and they go and score with their only touch in our box in the first hour! Fingers crossed we don't pick up any new injuries before the likes of Nunez, Jones, Thiago and Jota are all back and involved because we really are crying out for some fresh legs, particularly with the run of games coming up.

As for the time wasting, I honestly cannot recall worse time wasting in all my time watching football. From the 3rd minute Pope had the physio's on, every stoppage 1 or even 2 Newcastle players were down throughout the game and Mariner done absolutely **** all about it. I thought we were told that refs were clamping down on these sorts of things this season?

Running the ball in the corner is fine, absolutely nothing wrong with it. Feigning injuries especially head injuries is rank and cheating.

Still think if someone goes down with a head injury they go off the field for 5 mins
I didnt watch the Liverpool game so dont know, did the supposed midfield shortage rear its head again tonight, or was it other factors?
Fb's are misfiring massively at the moment, the Bournemouth game has been the only one that they've really been up to par.
 
Robertson and Trent were both very poor too, Tsimikas made much more of an impact on the left side in his cameo than Robertson did through the match
