Premier League Round Up (Jan 31 - Feb 1 2020)

"A frustrating afternoon for Newcastle as there was nothing to cheer or get your cock out to in this one (was that the most Newcastle fan thing ever by the way? I think it might just be)." This has got to be a close second -
Liverpool 1 Shrewsbury Town 0 (Feb 4 2020)

"I have to say though that in general I’d like something to be done to help ensure the lower league clubs get more cash as football is definitely weighted too heavily in favour of the top flight. It’s basically a reflection of modern society. The rich get richer and fuck everyone else." This is the most pertinent paragraph in the report. Capitalism in football has benefited English football, and in particular, the top 6 and Premier league teams. In society though, the gross capitalism of the country has caused massive societal inequality and led to Brexit, when a vote against what the "elites" wanted was the only weapon the deprived working class had left. And the way things are going it's not going to get any better over the next decade. -

Shewsbury Town 2 Liverpool 2 (Jan 26 2020)

How about scrapping replays but giving lower division sides the decision whether they want the game played at their own ground or not? Then lower league league sides can decide if they want to get a better chance at winning, or the gate receipts -
Very good report Dave. Just a couple of things 1. "I want to have my cake and eat it. Never understood the point of that saying" Exactly. As Billy Connolly once said "What the hell is the point of having a cake if I can't eat it" 2. Traore is terrifying, but was he more terrifying than Zaha against Milner this time last year? Also, I remember a game in 2002 when Gronkjaer absolutely destroyed Carragher. I thought that day he was going to be one of the all time greats. Obviously, the 2 careers went in different directions after that....

If Jordan Pickford is a pile of shit, does that mean he's Theo Walcott???? -

Nice report Dave, but why all the shitting on the Baldies? Did Pepe Reina, Mascherano and Gary McAllister not do enough for us? (sad face) -
I thought the deliberate mistake was when you said West Ham won 3-0?

Well we had one of the best defensive records in qualifying :) Admittedly the rest of the side is pretty poor. Connolly, Obafami and Parrott though ;) -

Well you did call McGoldrick a chump in the round up last week for not scoring. Sounds like a bit of a slight to me. It's probably just me. Being bald and Irish are the 2 things I have a chip on my shoulder about. But anyway, as you say, the Irish, like the Chinese, are a great bunch of lads -

Got to take issue with your slating of Obafemi Dave. He's Irish in fact. Yes I know he's black and he doesn't look proper Leprechaun but he's one of us. Your slating of Irish strikers (McGoldrick, Jon Walters) is a bit of a recurring theme actually. Now I know we may be a bit shit but in the immortal words of Erasure please.....give a little respect......tooooo me... -

No man of the match or did I miss it? -
Have been away the last few months and have not seen as many games as I would have liked. Saturday was the first game in a while and I was shocked by how poor we were. Either we're hanging on and we're going to get our comeuppance soon or this is our actual blip period and we're going to go into overdrive in the new year.

By the way apparently that was the first time a team ever had more possession than a Guardiola team in a game. So not even we managed it. -

Maybe it's just because he's in the news a lot at the moment, but is Goldbridge a fatter version of left wing journo Owen Jones or is that just me? -

I'm just after looking at that Son advert, and it is properly cringe, although not massively unusual by Korean standards -
Premier League Round Up (Nov 2-3 2019)
buster69 replied to tlw content's topic in FF - Football Forum
Highly entertaining roundup as always Dave. I particularly like your Emery observations. He's definitely a bit of a strange fish alright. Like a bastard child of Al Pacino and Robert De Niro As for Scotland, Tierney's been injured a lot recently so I guess that's a partial excuse as to why they've been so bad Finally as regards excessively tall wide players, I can think of Ian Ormondroyd and Jostein Flo (both for long ball teams) but after that I'm struggling. Surely Pulis had a few at one stage too -

Just looked at John McGinn and he indeed does look like he could be Andy Robertson's brother. As regards worst refereeing decisions of all time, at least 3 spring to mind -

"He’s had more fake ‘headaches’ than my missus." This is a storyline that needs exploring.... -
Premier League Round Up (Oct 5-6 2019)
buster69 replied to tlw content's topic in FF - Football Forum
Good report Dave but what's with all the shitting on the Irish players? Hourihane is one of our better players. Connolly is the next bright hope. The only thing you said in our favour was that Jonathan Walters was not as shit as you previously mentioned. And I'm sure that was through gritted teeth. Also Kevin Abraham? Was that a misprint or is it a joke that I'm missing out on in some way? Other than that though, highly entertaining as always. -

"With all due respect, you’d expect us to be able to handle two bang average players like that....." Love that expression. Always used just before you're about to disrespect somebody. -

Anyone who is in the England first 11 is almost automatically overrated. So for Pickford, see also Harry Maguire. The only exception to that rule is when a player is black, in which case the tabloid media will hound them for everything from booking a flight to buying a pair of trainers.
