The 'couldn't think where else to put this' and decided it didn't merit a new thread thread

That's the fun of football isn't it you can be a country mile ahead of the opposition and then the Ref decides to intervene. What a muppet! ;doh

Wigan best Man City... ;nonono

I have heard that the Wigan players have been asked to lead Brexit negotiations on account of the ability to persuade, against us they managed to get the referee to dismiss a player for something he had not seen and in this round they get a referee to change a yellow he is already holding in his hand to a red. That takes some doing. One of the Wigan players even pushes the ref, yet he does nothing but change his card for the city player.

Refereeing is getting worse in the premiership in my view.

I hope they get stuffed in the next round.

West Ham manager David Moyes will attend the England rugby union sides
training, prior to their game against Scotland on Saturday. (Guardian)
Personally I can't see any advantage of this, as the rugby boys have a different
shape ball for a start.
;lol

I think Tony Henry filled in the forms..................

OldCastleSwift · February 2018

From a player perspective, yes.

But from a reputational point of view it isn't great, is it. Three errors in twelve months. We may not be criminal, but we appear not to be the brightest.

Reminds me of Omoyinmi-gate from the late 90s ;lol

He's 40 now, if anyone else wants to feel old.

The example they gave is simply a typo.

Should be checked, though.

More details on the doping charge: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2018/feb/20/west-ham-charged-fa-breach-anti-doping-rules

Both Bournemouth and Manchester City were done for the same thing last year, and both were fined.

I like the last bit of the article...
