Jimmy_D Posted 16 April, 2022 Posted 16 April, 2022 MK Dons, at home, in League One, going 3-0 down to a long range lob. They must have been getting flashbacks… 1

He may well have score the hat trick but I don’t think they look as good a team with him in it. Sure, he’ll get goals by virtue of being one of the best players of all time, but it’s still a narrow win at home to Norwich for a team which could finish 7th/8th.

I wonder how they will feel about this result (if they do win,of course) essentially gifting promotion to Rov'rum. There's no love lost between them I can tell you.

Probably trumped at the moment by their own promotion chances, but yeah, if they don’t make it, being in a lower league really won’t sit well.

On Motd Dublin thought Ronaldo was not the problem as he has scored 20 goals and won matches for ManU , Houghton was less positive saying we would have to wait for the new manager and see the team next season. I should imagine Ronaldo has lined up another top team for next season

SaintBobby Posted 17 April, 2022 Posted 17 April, 2022 Sounds like a gruesome injury to Ashley Westwood in the West Ham v Burnley match.

Yeah, he knew immediately and then when Vlasic turned around and saw the injury he (Vlasic) collapsed to the turf with his head in his hands.
LiberalCommunist Posted 17 April, 2022 Posted 17 April, 2022 Is Toons new Brazilian going to be the king of bizarre goals? They are certainly unorthodox. That's two so far..... Terrible goal keeping by the KS.

OttawaSaint Posted 17 April, 2022 Posted 17 April, 2022 (edited) Penalty to Burnley! Stupid stutter run up by Cornet and missed. What a total prat! Looked like if he'd scored the ref would have ordered a retake because he stopped in his run up. He missed so no retake. Edited 17 April, 2022 by OttawaSaint 1

OttawaSaint Posted 17 April, 2022 Posted 17 April, 2022 Awful penalty. He grabbed the ball off of JRod too. Prat!
LiberalCommunist Posted 17 April, 2022 Posted 17 April, 2022 Mistake giving away the free kick in that position, shit defending conceding that goal. Fuck me, are they trying to save Everton at this point?
OttawaSaint Posted 17 April, 2022 Posted 17 April, 2022 Pope has made 2 crucial saves to keep Burnley level. Fucking Cornet is such a greedy prick.

Jimmy_D Posted 17 April, 2022 Posted 17 April, 2022 I can’t tell if that’s a point gained or two points dropped for Burnley after that… Might not be until the end of the season we find out heh.

They'll look at these specific games at the end of the season and know that's where they should've got more.
LiberalCommunist Posted 17 April, 2022 Posted 17 April, 2022 To have the chance to go two nil up with a penalty against a team clearly struggling with fatigue, that is 100% two points dropped. Also the phycological blow that would have dealt Everton cannot be underestimated. Saying that, would it have been different with SD in charge still? Perhaps not, maybe they have had a kick up the arse with his removal.

Yep, also they announced the attendance at 76k, which is apparently 2.5k more than yesterday’s game too. I mean I can somewhat understand yesterday given the travel chaos for two Northern teams, but I’m somewhat surprised this tie between 2 London clubs isn’t closer to 80-85k. Perhaps must be due to all the other external factors.

A couple of years ago someone either copyrighted or trade marked "man of the match" thinking they could charge a fee every time it was used. Everyone came up with new names for it instead. Can't be arsed to find a link but you can google it. In other news, was in Covent Garden this afternoon, a right royal Crystal Palace party was in progress.
