The ref should take into account context. A defender and forward jostling are both trying to win the ball, Silva was purely there to obstruct Sa and had absolutely no intention of trying to play the ball. It had been happening all game, most notably at the corner immediately before the one they...

He’ll probably end up buying yogurt and Ryvita!

Exactly.

Same here. As soon as he made the square gesture I thought it had been disallowed.

If they’re vulnerable to the ball over the top Forbs should play. If so other than the keeper decision the only decision to make is which two of Gomes, Lemina and Andre play. I’d guess he’ll leave Andre out.

Nothing says Johnstone has been massively disappointing louder than Deutsch calling for Sa!

A drowning man grasping for anything that might keep him afloat.

I have no idea whether or not GO has encouraged RAN to push forward so much when playing in a back four leaving acres of space behind him but I do know that his strength is getting forward and we look more solid with Toti giving some cover. The problem I see with 3CHs is it leaves Sarabia...

If they’d set the qualifying criteria as people living in Council Tax Band D and above lose it I don’t think there would have been that much fuss.

I’ll take the first two points but Cunha was one our worst performers yesterday and just because we’re underdogs doesn’t mean other teams will attack more.

I’d rather not. Stuff of nightmares. Mind you I don’t think Johnstone would have made three of the saves Sa did.

It's fine to back your number one if he misses a game if prior to that he's been doing well, but he's been piss poor. If GO brings SJ back he better hope he plays levels above anything we've seen so far or it could well be one of the final nails in his coffin.

There’s a clear shove. It’s a foul and should have been given.

Not really cleaning him out, Jones momentum made it look worse. Once Sanchez gets a touch you could argue Jones fouls Sanchez.

A battling display with literally three threats to their goal all game. A few observations: 1. Sa is a far better shot stopper than Johnstone. He made three really good saves, all of which Johnstone probably wouldn't have. 2. Whilst we can pack a defence and block and battle with a couple of...

3 reds for Arsenal already this season and all deserved. You’d think Arteta would have more of a plan of how to play with 10 men given his team play in a snarky, cynical way and if refs do their job they will always be likely to get a red card. Even Usain Bolt would have struggled to cover...

Kudus deserved two yellows and a red there. Possibly a second red! Madness yet Ally McCoist thinks he should stay on.

So when the small business has flourished and the owner wants to sell up and retire who does he sell to? The reality is in many cases only larger businesses can afford to buy smaller businesses so guess what, you end up back where we are.

Can’t disagree re using BMI as definition of obese in some cases but the eye test tells me there are a lot of very fat people about. I was very careful in my wording and referred to those where their weight is stopping them getting employment. Obviously most overweight people can and do work.

There’ll be two seats available in the BW if we go down. I’ll pick and chose as getting rid of tickets for games you can’t attend will be nigh on impossible.
