EPL 2019-2020 - Where VAR is run by a 12 year old

Is that you, Kyle Martino?

 

Literally every commentator in England thought it was a pen. Martino's stance was comical.

 

Pep said something similar this morning. Would be the end of FFP. I always assumed it would get halved to one season but a complete exoneration would make the FFP rules unenforceable.

 

Of course they will

 

#Manchester United which one of us is starting the gofundme to buy MBappe?

 

Don’t do that to yourself. Going to make it hurt that much more when he goes to man city

 

Admittedly, I only watched it once, but I thought it was the Spurs guy (Vertonghen?) that tripped him.

 

I’m just busting balls. Kane does trip over Vertonghen’s left leg, but it all precipitated from the push by King.

 

I don’t know why people are just taking someone guessing as a sign of anything.

 

Monday 10:30AM local time for the announcement

 

holding my breath

 

Sounds like word has leaked out that the ban is being fully overturned

 

This is why Spurs collapsed (going back to early 2019), top 5 was a target we could hit, top 4 an insurmountable challenge. Took our collective footses off of the collective brakes. Rest up for next season. Jose in.

 

Has FFP actually produced any tangible results? I'm still miffed about that whole 3rd party aspect of the Neymar PSG deal, fairly certain nothing came of that either.

 

mostly been lesser teams who have been penalized. PSG and city got a slap on the wrist previously. This is the first major challenge of it though and if this fails, I can’t imagine it stays.

 

It also exists to prevent small clubs from overspending and ultimately bankrupting themselves. So, maybe?

 

If you're big enough you just need creative accounting and good lawyers.

 

PSG/City have neither. PSG benefits from people in the right place and guess City is benefitting from the pandemic or some sort of bribe.

 

I'm gonna punch you in the stomach and you're gonna have to call off work for 3 weeks.

 

Ha

 

I’m just offended that we wouldn’t hire the best lawyers. We may have fucked up with the accounting but we spared no expense on lawyers

 

I mean, clearly you spent as much as needed. You (reportedly) won an appeal for TWO YEARS and got it down to nothing.

 

How in the world did Norwich beat City?

 

For the record I don’t believe for a second that those in clear and open violation of the laws will just get off scott free.

Now if you’ll excuse me I’m gonna go watch this Roger Stone interview.

 

god damn it. Insert *spared no expense.gif* here

 

So, Norwich have completely given up, eh?

 

Nick Pope > any other GK

 

If Burnley score on that counter and var comes back and says that was a foul and a PK on the other end, does that goal stand?

 

No

 

Wow

 

Burnley almost just took the lead. Wonder if it would have stood.

 

They are raping Alli

 

How that sequence just went makes me very nervous now

 

Makes sense, but that would be especially cruel.

 

When he was bumped by his defender or when he jumped into a guy that went straight up for a header?

 

Looking back.. the burnley player pushed our defender into him

 

wow 2-0 Sheffield

 

Sheffield has decided to wake up finally. They look great today.

 

Chelsea showing they really need to buy a third big name attacker this summer

 

Is Chelsea asleep?

 

my first two Norwich sightings ever were against City and then running Newcastle completely off the pitch, thought they were gonna be a fun follow

 

We were all having a Pukki party the first month or so

 

that match was so long ago that it’s a bit hazy but like with most things, otamendi was likely a big reason why

 

send tammy to a championship side
