Whitey Grandad

Just today?

Is that for real?

That might catch on. Where can I buy one? (In my size of course)

Trousers is Bungle. There is no other explanation.

Nonsense. I referee every match I watch. Either from the stands or my armchair. 😇 Besides, I'm nearly 77 years old and not as young as I used to be.

Neither was anywhere near a penalty in my opinion. Which, let's be honest, is the only one that really matters. 😊 In a match of this significance no referee is going to give either of those.

I can picture the scene now. Bald man with an eyepatch sitting in a chair and stroking a big white cat. "Come in Mr. Salt. I've been expecting you."

In the Northern Hemisphere, of course.

I saw this and similar comments elsewhere: How are Middlesbrough supposed to have obtained his name from a credit card transaction? The owner's name is never disclosed.

I was wandering about that too.

Or simply had chosen to apply a higher than normal tolerance level.

It doesn't but it's probably best not to upset the EFL at the moment.

Good point.

As I posted above, the page source code contains this: "datePublished": "2025-01-27T15:18:00+0000","dateModified": "2025-07-17T15:45:07+0100" So published 27th January 2025 and modified17th July 2025.

I suspect that the EFL want to get their fine money in before we officially become members of the EPL. At what point is that? When we win the playoff final or is there some set date?

That's some euphimism.

This is crucial. At the date of the event was he actually an employee of Southampton FC? Hayden Hackney has previously been linked with transfer interest from Aston Villa as well as several other Premier League clubs. This lad is the key to the whole affair and I am surprised that no self-respecting sports journalist has managed to track him down.

I prefer Google Maps myself. "If you buy so much as a coffee here your name will be all over the Internet before you can say Steve Gibson"

Good for him.

If he buys a coffee then he's a customer.

Sky always give the time that their coverage starts and not kickoff times.

Then we should be sanctioned for employing him.

'Utmost good faith' is meaningless and undefinable. It also includes 'kicking the shit out of the opposition during matches'.

They are unlikely to have been submitted yet. Or they may have been prematurely shredded.
