Was their handball even looked at? Also, I thought five minutes added on was a bit much.I think it’s the additional substitutions causing the extra added in times, their must half a dozen in the second half yesterday.Substitutions plus the ridiculous drinks breaks. Otherwise known as the advertisement breaks of the future 🤔

Very pleased over all but so sad to see what's happened to Benteke. Nothing to do with the red card but his performance.So sad.
Quote from: eamonn on July 13, 2020, 01:22:19 AMAmused by the amount of posts saying how shite Palace were. That seems to happen a lot the rare times we actually win - people slagging off the quality or lack thereof in the opposition. There was very little between the teams in the first half, we stepped up a gear for fifteen minutes in the second half which was enough to get us the insurance goal and then Palace had the better of the late chances. But it was a hard-earned win against a side who are, in the wider context, better than us and not in urgent need of points. No need to decry them as the new Blosers.I would have felt aggrieved if that handball for their "goal" had been given against us. Surprised though that no one has mentioned a possible foul by Ayew on Reina as the free kick comes in. Ayew clearly nudges Reina - to the extent that it made Reina fall to the ground I'm not sure, only he knows that but by falling to the ground and giving Palace an unguarded goal, it's more likely that it was a foul. Watching the game, when the VAR check came up, I presumed it was for that. Not meaning to sound clever after the event, but I thought exactly the same about Ayew fouling Reina and, like you, I assumed the VAR was for that.

Villa won.A chest and two bollocks should see us safe.Surely the bollocks are one game? They are a package that cannot be separated. Therefore, I'd like to propose that Jon shaves his arse crack if we pull this off? In fact, I will join him in shaving my own bottom if we avoid relegation. I promise.

Shaved my beard off. Villa won.
Let’s not go there again please, some of us remain traumatised by ‘The Shaving Thread’ & Dan The Pool Man to this day.
I didn't watch, took the kids to play frisbee (sorry, flying disc thingy) in the park and have an ice cream instead.Am I allowed to watch our next match?
