Yeah, but apart from that, I was right.

Hearts twatted, we won't be playing them this season.

Though we will be wearing their shirts.

My theory is Hearts' European campaign will be done by August. Three qualifying round defeats in a row.

🚨 BREAKING: Anthony Taylor announces retirement from refereeing. Englishman officiated 831 games across 2 decades (including every domestic cup final) & bows out aged 47 after taking charge of #Portugal vs #Spain in last-16 of #FIFAWorldCup

"Altrincham" supporting Anthony Taylor, who would leave his Wythenshawe home to unbiasedly officiate at Old Trafford...

I fear you may be right. I assume they drop to Europa League Qualifying after this, then if they lose their it’s into Europa Conference League qualifying? Apparently they actually played quite well in the first half didn’t take chances then fell apart at the start of the 2nd half. Ho hum.

Hearts still suffering a hangover from the conclusion of last season.  Based on the last time they lost out on the title on the final day, expect the hangover to last four decades.

For anyone unaware of Manchester geography, it's like Barry Lose of Chelmsley Wood, claiming to be a Solihull Moors fan and then regularly officiating at the Sty.

Good riddance you biased twat.

He was one of the worst and apparently his seniority meant that var officials were unwilling to overrule him.

Still remember Taylor's lamentable performance when we played the Blades at VP in December 2023. It's rare for a ref to get so many decisions plain wrong.

The final bow was not to give us a pen at Burnley when Walker literally took little Emi's boot off!!

If the Sheffield United one is the game I've thinking of, we should have had about 3 penalties and had a goal wrongly disallowed..

The goal was VAR'd for Ramsey holding the keepers arm on the original cross. Wasn't Taylor initially giving it but can also see why it was disallowed as Ramsey definitely stopped the keeper going for it.

We'd have won the league if it wasn't for that

Is Taylor the bald geezer?

In other news, Wolverhampton have a wantaway wanderer on their hands:

Wolves striker Tolu Arokodare forced the cancellation of a training session after he refused to leave the pitch.

BBC Sport has been told the 25-year-old Nigeria international sat down and demanded the club let him move to Fiorentina.

Wolves have rejected a bid from the Serie A side, having accepted an offer from Turkish club Trabzonspor.

Arokodare's actions led to new boss Cesar Peixoto terminating the session on Monday.

The striker was not involved in Wednesday's friendly at Maidenhead United as Wolves continue their pre-season plans.
