Ha.

Ha ha. I guess Allison being out injured for 2 months doesnt count as a long term injury.

I am sitting down watching The Supervet on SBS when who should bring his dog in on one of the segments? Lee Dixon.

[Zidane98]

Hes a machine and easily the best athlete seen in the modern game. I reckon he will be at Juve for another 2 seasons after this season and after that maybe the A League with his Australian connections

Can see him playing until 41/42 professionally. By then will have broken every goalscoring record.

I'm guessing there will be a lot of "nothing" and not much "all" in this season. Hopefully it will give a decent insight as to what has gone wrong

IIRC the year Man City did it they won the Premier League and set a bunch of records

 

[moomba]

Really enjoyed our "all or nothing" series. Looking forward to Spurs.

 

[chef]

Yeah i think the Spurs one may be more interesting. Especially if the implosion happens.

 

[bok_party]

There’s also the Leeds United one on Amazon too at the moment and a Dortmund one. The Liverpool fans might enjoy the latter cause they do talk to Klopp.

 

[jod23]

I've heard they want to do us but Klopp doesn't want to do it. Wants to focus on football which im happy with.

Fourth round qualifying round game abandoned due to racial abuse. England cannot be on a high horse after Bulgaria

Team quits FA Cup match over racism toward GK

Haringey Borough's FA Cup qualifying game with Yeovil was abandoned as the home side walked off due to reports their goalkeeper was racially abused.

www.espn.com.au

Disgusting and shameful. The FA should award the the to Haringey-Borough IMHo

 

[Zidane98]

It's great that this is getting publicity. Can only help in stamping out this sort of behaviour in the future.

Not sure on penalties. At this level it would be unfair to penalise the entire club and its supporter base over the actions of a few.

I say replay the game behind closed doors and press criminal charges against the minority who were engaged in racial abuse. Ban them for 5 years and fine them 10000 pounds each plus force them to participate in reeducation programs. That should be a strong deterrent against future behaviour.

Great to see Wijnaldum acknowledged as 1 of 5 midfielders nominated. I’m a huge fan, he goes under the radar a bit but has had an outstanding 12 months.

 

[Latro]

Good to see Arsenals whole team nominated.

Mahrez? Don't watch much citygames but it's only this season he's been playing I thought. Did he even get any mins last season?

He missed the pen against Pool last season.

 

[Thistle]

Mahrez? Don't watch much citygames but it's only this season he's been playing I thought. Did he even get any mins last season?

He's largely there due to the importance he played in Algeria's ACON triumph

 

[glenferry23]

So many Wenger “I tried to sign him” names in that shortlist.

 

[jod23]

Apparently we have a record 7 players in the final 30. That's pretty cool.

Fourth round qualifying round game abandoned due to racial abuse. England cannot be on a high horse after Bulgaria

England on a high horse? I've heard Southgate, players and pundits/journalists all say that there are problems with racism back home as well. The English had every right to speak up against the loud and continuous monkey chants in Bulgaria, where the coach said he hadn't heard anything and Bulgarian journalists were laughing at English journalists for bringing it up at the press conference. What a difference with what happened in England, where everyone, including Yeovil, immediately spoke out against it.

Haven't seen much of Real, is Benzene's nomination fair? That surprised me
