carrying weight/looks vv sluggish on top of all the other recent (18 months tbh) complaints against him

Banáná hÉireann (darraghmac), Sunday, 5 January 2020 14:18 (six years ago)

Who would spend 50 million quid on him though?

Frozen Mug (Tom D.), Sunday, 5 January 2020 14:21 (six years ago)

Banáná hÉireann (darraghmac), Sunday, 5 January 2020 14:36 (six years ago)

Banáná hÉireann (darraghmac), Sunday, 5 January 2020 14:48 (six years ago)

Conceding the same goal every week.

ShariVari, Sunday, 5 January 2020 15:11 (six years ago)

Banáná hÉireann (darraghmac), Sunday, 5 January 2020 15:12 (six years ago)

lo celso picking out better passes already than the rest of em combined in the previous hour

Banáná hÉireann (darraghmac), Sunday, 5 January 2020 15:23 (six years ago)

just to note that aurier has been ok for the past few games and today

but he should be forced to hand in his footballer card for that effort just there, you will never see worse

Banáná hÉireann (darraghmac), Sunday, 5 January 2020 15:50 (six years ago)

curious to see minamino

chet san telmo (alomar lines), Sunday, 5 January 2020 16:01 (six years ago)

Klopp showing his customary regard for the world's greatest cup competition.

Frozen Mug (Tom D.), Sunday, 5 January 2020 16:13 (six years ago)

Everton having to make sure they don't end up as the punchline the old joke about there being two good teams in Liverpool.

Frozen Mug (Tom D.), Sunday, 5 January 2020 16:33 (six years ago)

Amazed this is still 0-0.

ShariVari, Sunday, 5 January 2020 16:43 (six years ago)

Sweet goal

NickB, Sunday, 5 January 2020 17:30 (six years ago)

No disgrace in Everton losing to the second best team in Liverpool.

Frozen Mug (Tom D.), Sunday, 5 January 2020 17:52 (six years ago)

tranmere did pretty well yesterday. everton might have to settle for fourth-best

imago, Sunday, 5 January 2020 18:03 (six years ago)

Wolves strike first! also Maquire is down

papa stank (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 15 January 2020 19:55 (six years ago)

nope. VARed...AGAIN.

papa stank (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 15 January 2020 19:56 (six years ago)

handball. was incidental but probably right call.

still...can we ever celebrate

papa stank (Neanderthal), Wednesday, 15 January 2020 19:56 (six years ago)

would've been a pretty slapstick goal tbh

jazz fusion is sex (NickB), Wednesday, 15 January 2020 19:58 (six years ago)

Cut to shot of Steve Bruce looking like Droopy

GK Chessington's World of Adventure (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 21:58 (six years ago)

Serves them right I think they've had one shot in the second half

GK Chessington's World of Adventure (Noodle Vague), Tuesday, 4 February 2020 21:59 (six years ago)

What a beauty!

cajunsunday, Tuesday, 4 February 2020 21:59 (six years ago)

I knew Noel Gallagher had designed a kit for City this year, but I hadn’t realised that the lettering on the back of their shirts is “a bespoke typeface based on samples of his handwriting.” pic.twitter.com/KeoYdLIMYe

That ten minutes was from absolutely nothing. Hard not to be tinfoil hat when you see stuff like that.

Fuck City.

Well done to Palace, hats off

hiroyoshi tins in (Sgt. Biscuits), Saturday, 17 May 2025 17:50 (ten months ago)

We were all saying how classy Pep was, ffs what a dick

What did he do? Left as soon as it ended.

LocalGarda, Saturday, 17 May 2025 18:10 (ten months ago)

Spent about 5 minutes haranguing Henderson personally for having the temerity to not get sent off

i got bao-yu babe (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 17 May 2025 18:18 (ten months ago)

Such an odd man

kendrick lamaze "to push a baby out" (m bison), Saturday, 17 May 2025 18:50 (ten months ago)

I remember a point in his career where some said he might be bit different to most shitty horrible British managers because he said he liked a Bill Fay album in a Q+A!

vodkaitamin effrtvescent (calzino), Saturday, 17 May 2025 19:10 (ten months ago)

I feel like there was a time when he wasn't this much of a broken cunt but in the words of Ken Wolstenholme

i got bao-yu babe (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 17 May 2025 20:01 (ten months ago)

His desert island discs is absolutely hilarious. Like the great football professor picking "New York, New York, which will always remind me of my time living in that wonderful city, the city of New York"

LocalGarda, Saturday, 17 May 2025 20:07 (ten months ago)

Need to remind me what state the wonderful city of New York is in

i got bao-yu babe (Noodle Vague), Saturday, 17 May 2025 20:11 (ten months ago)

Wonderwall is also in there I believe.

LocalGarda, Saturday, 17 May 2025 20:19 (ten months ago)

I'm in Corfu and thought I'd be able to wander out and find a bar that was showing this and I'm kind of delighted to say that I could find any and that - because it's slightly out of season and the place isn't full of English tourists - the Greeks actually couldn't give a fuck about the FA Cup and English football.

Well done Palace though and gerrit right up ye, Pep ya cunt!

Blake the Messenger (Tom D.), Saturday, 17 May 2025 22:30 (ten months ago)

It's always nice when a slightly annoying but ultimately likeable underdog defeats a colossal global evil

We had better fuckin win next Sunday

Shrewsbury away kit is easily the ugliest I have seen this season.

sent a message through the Internet but it rejected (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Sunday, 2 November 2025 18:49 (five months ago)

Today's kit was their home one.

Oh dear, really?

The blue and orange one? Yeah.

Overtoun House windows (aldo), Sunday, 2 November 2025 21:44 (five months ago)

I am admittedly severely colour blind but it looks horrible to me.

the Man City away kit from the other week was one of the worst I've seen in a while - grey with a rain on windscreen print, fluoro green trim

two months pass...

great weekend for fallen giant teams stuffed full of absolute wastemen suddenly starting to play a bit when they're two down

Sgt. Biscuits, Sunday, 11 January 2026 18:16 (two months ago)

and uh catastrophically losing their heads in the process

Sgt. Biscuits, Sunday, 11 January 2026 18:26 (two months ago)

we did our usual of playing quite well then conceding with the opposition's first shot and then imploding from there

second half was a disgrace

Number None, Sunday, 11 January 2026 18:29 (two months ago)

one month passes...

"If City score I don't know whether to celebrate or not because it could be chalked off two minutes later. I'm looking forward to today because it's a lot better without VAR."

quite right. VAR should not be the reason City fans feel unable to celebrate goals

Sgt. Biscuits, Saturday, 14 February 2026 13:26 (one month ago)

Villa's goal obviously a mile offside but no VAR

Sgt. Biscuits, Saturday, 14 February 2026 18:01 (one month ago)

IMO a scrap VAR. Give the goal scorer 30 seconds after each goal to explain why the goal should count.

If explanation is plausible, entertaining, or funny, goal stands.

If Ronaldo scores, show him straight red

Abby Gore (Neanderthal), Saturday, 14 February 2026 18:07 (one month ago)

Winner for Mansfield Town v. Burnley scored by... Lou Reed!

The Olde, Old, Very Olde Man. (Tom D.), Saturday, 14 February 2026 18:45 (one month ago)

No-VAR working out perfectly for Villa.

The Olde, Old, Very Olde Man. (Tom D.), Saturday, 14 February 2026 19:07 (one month ago)

... except they might have missed the penalty.

The Olde, Old, Very Olde Man. (Tom D.), Saturday, 14 February 2026 19:08 (one month ago)

This is an incredible display of how bad reffing is these days when they don’t have a safety net. Three massive calls wrong.

ShariVari, Saturday, 14 February 2026 19:09 (one month ago)

it's like a pro-VAR infomercial

Sgt. Biscuits, Saturday, 14 February 2026 19:10 (one month ago)

Do we really want Villa to have been down to 9 men by half time with VAR. Well yes actually

lilcraigyboi (Craigo Boingo), Saturday, 14 February 2026 19:53 (one month ago)

could there be a more "dude sweating over which button to press" fixture than Leeds vs Brum?

podcast Diderot (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 15 February 2026 12:13 (one month ago)

what if I told you there was a hidden panel under which lies a secret third button labeled INJURIES AND SUSPENSIONS ALL ROUND

Sgt. Biscuits, Sunday, 15 February 2026 14:27 (one month ago)

I'm not that conflicted tbrr. Fuck the Bluenoses forever

podcast Diderot (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 15 February 2026 14:38 (one month ago)

Leeds have been playing some decent stuff and Farke doesn't seem like a total cunt so I can't actually summon that much ire for them on-pitch lately

we've got them on Saturday 3pm so let's see how that goes

Sgt. Biscuits, Sunday, 15 February 2026 14:41 (one month ago)

Yeah i have a perverse soft spot for Leeds nowadays

podcast Diderot (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 15 February 2026 15:19 (one month ago)

Tremendously brave performance from Wolves here holding on to snatch the upset at Grimsby. Our FA Cup adventure continues

podcast Diderot (Noodle Vague), Sunday, 15 February 2026 15:23 (one month ago)

Lol I typed that in sarcasm but the 5 Live team are actually running with that narrative
