'Even allowing for inflation, this thread is not worth 198 Terry Francises' - EPL 2017-18

Even though I haven't a clue how to pronounce his name I'm pretty psyched because Smith has been an outright liability for weeks now.

rah! rah! the armed forces can kiss my hairy arse!

woof

Whoah! VLP with a magnificent finish there, rubbing my eyes in disbelief!

he was probably trying to cross it right tbf!

jesus this is the most championship slate of saturday afternoon prem games i have ever seen

the words of a man whose team have maidenhead united tomorrow

(we have truro tbf)

fuck me that is the stupidest second yellow in a while

Schindler isn't normally such an idiot either, ffs!

your lot are just calling the ref a wanker during open play. he's basically made every decision correctly

he's actually given hudds a ridiculous fk there haha

A victory against the Pullisball menace is a very fucking good 3pts imo. The ref had a fairly decent game tbf, our lot wouldn't have been happy until he sent Rodriguez off as well, to even things out.

Rajiv's first PL goal, what a belter!

v pleased for the lad

Hart looks quality only a matter of time before he's back keeping nets for a team befitting his lololoololllllolol what a fucking tramp

Lineker just rip'd bilic live on motd

What

What is big Sam doing on BBC football show btw.

I mean....he's corrupt....right? Not kosher imo.

"It's about scoring goals, and clean sheets"

He might be corrupt but he sure is a valuable and insightful pundit imo

Lol, loads of our lot describing Roger East as the worst ref they have ever seen. The free kick from the 50/50 challenge that went our way lead to VLP's winner. I can't take this hysterical nonsense!

fucking strike by VLP though!

Seriously. They didn't make half enough of a deal about it, an absolute cracker

The lord knows times is good but this one feels like a dangerous one

youse got a new gazza huh

I know they never get given but that was 100% a penalty

Yes

His first two touches were a penalty and then a peach first time under pressure floated ball out to the left wing.

Essentially we have assou ekotto in goals

Danny rose has a serious attitude problem doesn't he

I mean he's great and his mentality to go from mediocre left winger to a European class full back and all that

But why would you force a ref to take you aside for a separate conversation with your captain and you just from some argy bargy at a corner sixteen mins into a game. Why.

Winks out.

rip kane

Jesus Christ I feel like phoning in an airstrike were dying out here

Sissoko aurier and son not exactly great at quick recycling of possession huh

Contropinion maybe but those printed on poppies piss me off. Kind of defeats the purpose? 'Here's your kit m8 we printed on the poppy so you don't have to even think abt it'. They should put a real one on, with a pin, so they too have the risk of hurting themselves putting them on. Yellow for losing it during the game.

otm

McClean should be made wear a poppy for every cunt act of violence he pulls.

seems they should have the choice. i wouldn't wear a poppy and i certainly would object to my employer making it mandatory i do so.

xpost

I'm sure they could ask to send it back

not if it's printed on the shirt

LG otm. The mandatory, auto-print use renders it meaningless imo.

could put a sticker over it or something

Next year, need a player to one-up McClean by requesting a white poppy to be printed on their shirt.

one of these or something

lmao

Good save by Gazza there

Palace forced a save, well done lads, that's our target for the day reached

Poppy's too small to be considered truthful. If they really MEAN it they should wear these imo:

Aurier tho.

Funny to start with winks/sissoko today. Against a team that will sit back you'd have though dembele/Alli make more happen even if they aren't metronomic

zahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa jfc

McClean should be made wear a poppy for every cunt act of violence he pulls.

Stickie or pinnie?

Sonned

Aurier should never get back in this team

Feel the same about Mkhitaryan
