So not going into C1871?

Hmmm, good spot, SFox! If something can be priceless one minute and worthless the next, anything is possible.

Apologies if this has already been said, but the VAR for the Everton v Forest game was the referee who awarded Reading the “ghost goal” against Watford. He’s probably not a Luton fan at all, it’s just what Watford fans have labelled him after his utter incompetence on that occasion!

…then have your squad ripped apart by the players’ agents who have their eyes on a tidy pay-out!

I thought the suspended points deductions related to pitch invasions and abandonments?

Did anyone else catch Dave Kitson on BBCRB last night. I only heard some of it and I doubt he’s actually ITK, but he seemed very dubious about the takeover and whether it’s going to happen. Like several others from the 106 squad, though, he seemed to have a genuine affection for the club.

For VAR to be truly accepted, the PL need to start treating their customers - supporters in the ground - as adults, which means showing why a decision has been made.

Is this the same Zygi Wilf who was done for fraud in New Jersey in 2013? Just curious. TBF, he does seem to have got his shit into one sock since then.
