He should have just said Leeds played better and move on.

There will be decisions that teams don't get the calls all the game.

In fairness he didn't even pull his bobble out of his hair lol
None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought.

Definitely a sore loser. Easy for him to point to that instead of why his team were so poor until the red card actually. It took them to feel a bit aggrieved over that to have a go. Leeds really should have been 3 or 4 up. Leeds hanging on a bit at the end but actually good to see how good the game management was after the goal as we've chucked away a load of points late on in games this year.

Leeds are 6/1 to go down, not great odds but sure you knew that  ;D

As for this game 1-1

Still think Leeds will go down. Tottenham due a run of form.

quit yo jibbajabba

*puts 100k on spurs to go down*

tiempo

Spurs are locked in, nothing will stop them in their relentless quest for ... relegation

Hawking themselves to investors as a legacy PL team i.e. an un-relegatable franchise ... an absolute disasterclass

Bournemouth have announced that head coach Andoni Iraola will leave the club in the summer after three seasons in charge.

Has done well at Bournemouth would be interesting to see how he'd do at club with big money to spend and big expectations to win trophies.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Everton lost a player for the same thing, utterly stupid thing for a player to do, suck it up Carrick.


@moonster,
   Can you share your PL predictions for the weekend, so we can all bet on the reverse result?

Didn't realise hair pulling has happened so often, the Chelsea player has been involved a few times and a lack of consistency in the colour of cards given.

Peter Crouch once pulled the dreadlocks of a Trinidad and Tobago player to hoist himself up and score a goal at the world cup.

Coventry back after 25 years.

From BBC

QuoteIt has been 9,113 days since they were relegated - by a 3-2 defeat at Aston Villa on 5 May 2001 - with the Sky Blues then tumbling to the brink.

After spending 11 years in the Championship, they were relegated to League One and fell into administration in 2013.

A return to the top was a distant dream amid the dramas of two groundshares with Northampton and Birmingham, a detested ownership in Sisu, multiple protests and parliamentary mentions.

Sky Blues fans organised marches while there were also pitch invasions against an ownership who sold to Doug King in 2023 after 13 years, during which the club dropped to the fourth tier for the first time in 59 years.

Their resurrection comes under Frank Lampard and, after sealing their promotion on Friday with a 1-1 draw at Blackburn, the Sky Blues can celebrate again.

To credit Lampard with this is a joke. They were already an excellent well run club before he came along. He's done well enough for them but promotion was close to guaranteed with the team they've built and attitude at the club this last 5 years.

Promotion is never guaranteed in the championship no matter how well run. Lampard deserves huge credit for the job he's done.
