Another two points off for Everton, this time for last season.

Should have took them off them last season.

Liverpool choked today.
City and Arsenal choked last week.
All 3 will likely choke again before the end.

Also, see "bottled it"

"This does not f**king slip" vibes

Why who said this does not slip?

Outlining his vision for the club next season?

19 shots to 0. Incredible dominance.

Still only a goal in it though.

Celtic need to call out Beaton and his officiatating.  Very poor but not unexpected. A no penalty given to get them in the game. I knew he'd give them a gift of a penalty. Celtic need to call that out.

In saying that, Celtic being 2-0 up and 3-2 up in injury time and giving up the draw is poor.

Disappointing but league still in Celtic's hands. No more slip ups. Know what is at stake now in terms of winning all the games.

You got a penalty and a rangers goal disallowed yet the conspiracy is against Celtic?
Why are SPL fans always so paranoid

Just watched Simon Harris' inaugural leaders speech at FG Ard Fheis. Not one single word on a United Ireland.  Not one single mention of new constitutional arrangements.  Not one single utterance about the Irish Government preparing for reunification.

Not in the list of priorities for most people.

Really. Because it seems to dominate a huge share of the zeitgeist north and south.

Bit of a farcical situation. Imagine travelling the New York to be turned away at the gate.

Who do they have left for centre back?

Is Trailer OK?

Jesus. Christ. What a signing Alexis Mac Allister is turning out to be.

[People went to the replays.]

They killed the golden goose with too many games in too short a time. Rem 2005 Tyrone replay against Down in the Marshes great game especially if you were a Down supporter! 2003 brilliant Ulster final went to a replay, Dublin-Meath epic 4 games in '91. Penalties are an aberration on Gaelic games, apeing soccer. People went to the replays.

The Tyrone- Armagh first game in 2005 got 60k.
The replay got 30k in a nearly two thirds empty Croke Park.
People did not go to the replays in anywhere near the same numbers.

Some of the best memories of playing were championship replays I was involved in, something special about them. 

I cant believe what I'm reading. For years people complained about replays because:
1) Expense involved for fans (grab all association!)
2) Fixture congestion (clubs not getting county players back, etc)

Now that we have a system in place that has been widely accepted across any amount of team sports for decades, people want to go back to the old way!!

Agreed. While a penalty shoot-out is exciting it's no way to end a gaelic match. 45s perhaps.

Why is this any different? I thought the main objection to penalties was that it wasn't fair to lose a game that way?

[I think people have got on to penalties now. It's not an issue anymore.]

I think people have got on to penalties now. It's not an issue anymore.

Finishing the game on the day, after extra-time and penalties is fine.

It's hapoened a few times in big games now. Definately a lottery but good entertainment for all.

Everybody knows the drill now.

They're a scourge on the game.

They are for Armagh. The other 31 counties have no problem.
The funny thing is penalties were invented in Armagh.
