Other Games - 2026 FIFA Men’s World Cup Edition (+ warm-up matches): Villa-watch

[Mellin]

He touched the fucking ball. The world has gone mad. What is Dixon on? What is Christina on? What is the ref on? What is going on?

Justice!

Showed the ref a still and an angle where you couldn’t see he touched the ball. Where was snicko?

Yeah, the angle was all wrong. The one behind the goal showed the touch. Not the refs fault tbf. VAR pick the feed I presume.

Yep, that’s where the corruption comes in.

They've been advertising pretty clearly they'll bend the rules to get the money further in the tournament elsewhere. Why not.

Why is that Man U twat not booked for that?

For what?

Diving.

Are you suggesting that the only two possible options are a foul or a dive, and that a player can't end up on the floor as the result of a fair challenge?

No.

Cool, so two players leaning into each other and both ending up on the ground is quite obviously neither a foul nor a dive.

That's not what happened. Two players came together, then one of them threw himself to the ground and immediately turned around and claimed for a penalty.

[Pat McMahon]

Given the height of Harlan’s why aren’t Norway slinging in a few crosses? I don’t think have done so once yet

[PaulWinch again]

Not true Mellin I’m afraid. I don’t think there’s anything in the rules that says a touch on the football means anything other than serious foul play is allowed. Unless of course FIFA have announced a new clause.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Why is that Man U twat not booked for that?

For what?

Diving.

If you got booked every time for diving Saka would be finished.

Not sure why you keep mentioning Saka as some kind of "gotcha" with me when I agree that he is a cheating twat.

He's behind you! You silly plonker, I know we agree on Saka, we discussed him the other day. My short term memory isn't that bad.

That’s the rational observation and conclusion. Of course, throw in he’s a pretty odious twat, coupled with who he plays for in his day job, one can only conclude he dived and should have been immediately red carded.

[PeterWithesShin]

FIFA will stop at nothing, even going so far as to pay H&Vers to shill for them and claim it was a penalty. Sad times.

This isn't something that happened.

Surprising, isn't it and it's not like they haven't had the opportunities.

Fair enough.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Good save.

[PeterWithesShin]

Nyland having a blinder.

I think not showing the ref the pertinent replay was the most suspect act.

Billy Idol on the left wing is particularly guilty

[PeterWithesShin]

Shame Haaland is a traitor, he'd have been good backup to Kane and Ollie.
