Live Match Discussion 2024/25

Ref having a bit of a mare in the Sunderland @ Burnley game. Gave a penalty for a tackle clearly outside of the box. Then allowed James Trafford to piss about for over two minutes having taken his gloves off without booking him. The penalty is then saved.

Has now given another penalty to Sunderland for minimal to no contact. Trafford then goes down pretending to be injured and does get a yellow card this time, which should have seen him sent off. He then saves the second penalty too.

 

[PuntsWolf]

Why has he not just hit it down the middle though…

 

[Jack Regan]

They were certainly terrible penalties and justice was effectively done.

Awful game of football though, how either of these are in the running for promotion shows how terrible the Championship is.

We should be able to come straight back up then

Been having a conversation with a friend related to finding Raya poor last weekend, is it just me or is the quality of goalkeepers in the league pretty low this season? Lots of teams whose first-choice isn't any good at all or don't really have a first-choice currently. Apart from Allison I'd struggle to name any particularly good goalkeepers at the moment, Ederson doesn't even play. Teams like Brighton and Brentford who are associated with good business have struggled to find a competent number one. We have multiple outright bad options and could say the same for Leicester and Ipswich.

Selz is doing decent but this could just be him on a good run, he wasn't all that last season or for Belgium. Martinez and Pickford are some of the few I'd consider good in addition to Raya but they aren't exactly elite level.

I knew this would be Chicago.

Bournemouth all over Newcastle straight from kickoff and go 0-1 up. Could have scored twice already.

I fancy Bournemouth to get something from this. Well organised team.

 

[Carrotdude]

Bournemouth look like they’re on drugs, absolutely relentless energy levels

 

[Sniffer]

Eddie Howe still hasn’t won a Newcastle v Bournemouth game when in charge of either side.

They play some really nice stuff too.

 

[Squeak]

I was expecting them to get something from the game and possibly win it but to blow Newcastle away like that...wow! Excellent performance and when you consider the injuries they have, even more impressive.

 

[prawnking]

Should never have sacked GON

 

[Dennisons Wrong Foot]

Only caught the last 10 minutes. Power, pace, purpose. No thought of just sitting back and protecting their lead. And no plodding, meandering, Wolves-style football.

Kilman getting stick for Crystal Palace’s goal.

 

[jd1981]

Fulham 2-0 now

RVN won’t be lasting much longer.

I know that Cooper wasn’t popular there but he had them competing in games most weeks.

 

[Tony Towner]

Always liked Traore, great end product

Lovely composed finish. Most unlike him.

They've played their new manager card now. Fucked it.
