Nah, you were in the right place.

 

Imagine being out in the third round and being happy about it...

Beat me to it, I remember when we used to try and win cups! The contempt this club has for the FA cup when we've won nowt in 7 years is pathetic.

 

Just fuck football in to the sea and have done with it!

I don’t need to imagine it. I’m not happy. Im not unhappy. I’m just not arsed.

 

Imagine being a self-righteous twat. Well, you don’t need to...

Chill out, wasn't a swipe at you.  Think I'm allowed to be a little miffed about us sandbagging our way out of another trophy.

Makes you wonder why the owners are so reluctant to extend the anfield road, aside from the obvious they can’t charge what they want. Seems to me there’d be no issue selling an extended anfield road with regular price tickets. 

Same reason we are going to be relying on Sturridge, Lallana and Moreno for a title run in.

Having to listen to yet another manager tell me how good Mesut Ozil is even though he has been dropped by said manager.

A forerunner to the Charity Shield being played in Pyongyang. Can't wait for the UEFA sponsored Crimea Cup either.

They've played the game abroad a few times now. They even played it in Libya one year, and Gaddafi's son got into the Juventus team photos following their win. He fancied himself as a footballer and even played in Serie A believe it or not.

A new low for modern footy 

 

Fans chanting 'VAR, VAR, VAR' after a coming together in the area in the Southampton v Derby FA cup tie.

Are they saying it or spelling it?

Anyone trying to deflect from their team’s shit performance by saying an incident “...changed the whole course of the game...” Eddie Howe for example when Salah was offside by 1mm when scoring the first in our 4-0 win. Using Howe’s argument, the referee should have blown his whistle and ended the game there and then

Don't even want to know what it means.

Expected goals, just a further commodification of the game into the realms of statistics and finance. It's part of the reason why I dislike VAR so much 'there's too much money riding on decisions' who gives a fucking shit, can't the GAME (I capitalise to emphasise the fact it is still a game, a piece of entertainment) not just be left unaltered by the needs of those with financial considerations at the top of the pile all of the time.

No. We crossed the Rubicon a long time ago and it would take something spectacular to cross back and I can't see it happening.
