The actual rule is below the level of the armpit, if the arm is down by the player’s side. They’d never base it on the shirt because that can shift and move, as well as be different lengths. Not to mention some players play in long sleeves. https://www.premierleague.com/news/1820123 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you enjoy pedantry, so; GSTK was written in 1744, first performed in 1745, and didn't become adopted as the National Anthem until the early 1800s. In the middle of 1827 it would have become GSTQ when Princess Alexandrina Victoria of Kent became Queen, and would have stayed as such until 1901 when King Edward 7th succeded her. So it wouldn't have been GSTK for 'hundreds of years before 1952', it has actually been GSTQ for longer. 😉 Edited 21 November, 2020 by badgerx16 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Munster Posted 21 November, 2020 Share Posted 21 November, 2020 Shame Spurs now have a manager who knows how to win trophies. With City in disarray and Liverpool with serious injury problems, they (Spurs) could have a shot at the title this year. It would be amusing if Leicester pip them to it again, although that would make me very jealous of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimmy_D Posted 21 November, 2020 Share Posted 21 November, 2020 It was a penalty under this season’s rules, and it should have been retaken with the keeper coming off his line like that, but it doesn’t feel like justice has been done there.

saint1977 Posted 22 November, 2020 Share Posted 22 November, 2020 I said it would be 3-1 but possibly not after just 34 minutes.... Any kind of movement and Fulham are in all sorts of trouble. Lemina has been poor, first touch like trapping a bag of cement. Reed tidy but 3-4 yellow shirts around him every time pressing the ball. Wonder how many outstanding transfer fees Fulham have from the £170m spend and their last relegation? Shows you the damage Les and Ross could have done with serious backing. Fulham’s Burley-esque approach to building a back 4 not functioning. Should have been more there, miskick in front of open goal. More here for Everton if they want it.

whelk Posted 22 November, 2020 Share Posted 22 November, 2020 Still good to see that some clubs can come up and compete like Wolves and Leeds. But relegation looks so easy to avoid already with likes of Fulham. WBA less shit but not getting any points. Notice the three relegated clubs from last season are occupying top spots in Championship. None of whom will do will in PL next. Has Lemina done anything so far?

They look like a side who really need the home crowd factor behind them to generate the energy in their team and help them compete against better technical teams, which they don’t have now.

Jimmy_D Posted 22 November, 2020 Share Posted 22 November, 2020 It’s not everything that’s going on there, but if they carry on at this rate, Sheffield United will be the picture they always use next to ‘Second Season Syndrome’.

Manuel Posted 23 November, 2020 Share Posted 23 November, 2020 Just looking at the Pepe/Alioski incident again. Obviously Pepe lost his head and the red is justified. Should Alioski also get a yellow for "attempts to deceive the referee by feigning injury"? Surely no reasonable viewer would believe that dropping, clutching his face was a genuine reaction? Obviously done cynically to get the game stopped so VAR can have a look. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VI7fxXQdeOU&t=1m13s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Garrett Posted 24 November, 2020 Share Posted 24 November, 2020 West Ham quietly going about their business, 3 points behind us having played, Newcastle (H) - L 0-2 Arsenal (A) - L 2-1 Wolves (H) - W 4-0 Leicester (A) - W 0-3 Spurs (A) - D 3-3 Man City (H) - D 1-1 Liverpool (A) - L 2-1 Fulham (H) - W 1-0 Sheff Utd (A) - W 0-1 Very good return given that fixture list, you've got to say.
