I think the issue is that if the clock isn't running, the game could get really, really slow....2 minutes to take a corner etc.

Surely we can't screw this one up? I think a comfortable win tbh....but would like an early-ish goal.

Am I right that the balls tends to be in play for about 30 minutes per half? If so, I can see a rationale for having two halves of exactly 30 minutes (with the half ending when the ball goes dead after that time) - measured on a countdown clock. But, gees, that feels just too American, no?

Same. Don’t Corinthians play in those sort of colours?

You thought the 3rd goal would decide the outcome. But you also thought Saints could have easily scored 7 or 8?

Good performance overall. We win that 9 times out of ten. Fair play to Charlton, they defended brilliantly and were well organised. Thems are the breaks.

I like that - if you’re going to have playoffs at all - there are meaningful advantages of finishing in higher position. I think some other sport (Aussie rules?) had a smart system. 6th plays away at 5th, winner plays away at 4th, winner plays away at 3rd. Winner of that promoted. That’s it.

This is great entertainment

Both full backs excellent today. And encouraging debut for Larin. Not pretty. But pretty effective.

Tippy tappy at the back 🤦‍♂️

We are not exactly building to be competitive in the Prem next year are we?

Start with Flynn. Consider subbing him after he collects his first yellow. Probably about 2 minutes in.

I think I'm in the Tonda must go camp now. Hapless.

Gees.

I’d settle for a repeat of 76. No promotion but win the Cup.
