    But the point many make is the stress of uncertainty being worse than the effect of the virus. So to remove that uncertainty you either carry on as you were and just let this disease rip through society and place massive strain on health and care services. With the number of people...

    Hamer

    Indeed. But on another day with another ref he might have pulled the card out for either of those challenges (even if it would've been harsh) and we're down to 10. Fact is we were given the opportunity to replace him as he gave him a couple of warnings. Another day we probably won't be given...

    Hamer

    Also highlights how important it is we defend them better as well. Not convinced by zonal marking - I think it has far more downsides than up and can be exploited pretty easily by putting lots of attackers in one zone leaving the defender massively outnumbered. As long as you've got someone who...

    I think it did. Ever since terrorism has been a major buzzword used to increasingly restrict freedoms or 'spy' on people. Half of the laws that have been passed around the world allowing greater access to data would've been a lot harder to justify were it not for an event like that. Not to say...

    So because these people have no option but to go into work no-one else should either. Thereby massively increasing the amount of transmission of the virus ,increasing the workload on those healthcare staff and further increasing their likelihood of getting it due to supressed immune system from...

    If you watch the video of the goal as the corner is swung in we've got a player (Hyam I think) standing exactly in the spot their player scores from. He then moves towards the ball to challenge so we've got two players challenging one of theirs. Ball sails over his head into the space he vacated...

    Not Today or Any Day

    Humans will be long gone in 3/4 million years. If we haven't destroyed ourselves we'll have evolved into something completely different and been superceded. Of course it won't stop the sun heating up/expanding naturally as it uses up its fuel and thus all the planets surrounding it creating...

    Or you get loads of your attackers in one zone and you end up with plenty of free attackers and defenders standings there defending fuck all.

    Marosi Rose Drysdale Osti Dabo Sheaf Eccles Mason Hilssner Burroughs Walker Subs: Billson, Williams, Thompson, Rowe, Bapaga, Baka, Biamou Would expect Rose, Dabo and Osti to make way (although that does create a much changed back line over the game which isn't ideal).

    You could argue the defence not being switched on at the first whistle cost us the game. You could argue Godden not putting a chance away cost us the game.

    He might find he doesn't get the same leeway here as elsewhere. Also wonder if he got subbed much in other games to escape a red? I agree I think he'll settle but it could be a bit hairy in the meantime.

    More positives and optimism to take from that than negatives, despite the loss. With Dabo esp to come in and Rose we've got enough quality to compete footballing wise. Very instructive going forward to. It showed how we can't afford to be as wasteful in front of goal or switch off at this level...

    WOO HOO! 1-1! Terrible start, Kelly going off and Hamer's card have made me a bit nervous, but going level helps.

    I was at work and one of the partners came in asking if we'd heard the news. I thought he was talking about the football as Strachan had been sacked the day before I think and we might have got his replacement in, but he said about then towers. Went to get some milk from the shops shortly after...
