Yeah maybe. I was just there for the first time in my life yesterday thinking, I’d rather be doing something else than watching these millionaires pretending to be injured. And I was there at the darkest days home and away. Maybe it’s that other things in my life give me more joy than football these days but I do think the timewasting and histrionics have contributed to the buzz going away for whatever reason.

If that's how you feel fair enough, but yesterday was an exception.
Derby, QPR and Oxford were all entertaining games.

Ironically I’ve got the Derby game down as our worst footballing performance of the season, obviously the Oxford second half was bad too. Despite the goals I don’t recall any decent football in general happening until about the 70 minute mark.

This all stops if we score the first goal - EMC gets his header in - its mandatory for us to get the first goal to avoid this sort of crap

'Senior Football Anchor'

Well, it's close...

I'm old school. I don't really care if they're injured. Exception is head injury or something that is so obvious that the players should stop playing and kick it out. That's on their professional integrity. They shouldn't want to see a fellow pro in genuine distress. Should be honour code amongst the players. As far as the ref is concerned he should play on for everything but clear head injury. If play IS stopped for a head injury there should be a retrospective check after the match and the player charged with misconduct if he is adjudged to be faking.

No sorry.my daughter was out though,and I thought it may have been you, there a comedy night at the CBS in one of the lounges.

Bad enough how most fans don't know the rules, but a 'Senior Football Anchor' being paid thousands is inexcusable.

Rhymes with anchor

We did. But he was referring to the time wasting, yesterday was on a level you don't usually see, it wasn't the norm

Just happened in the Burnley v Liverpool game where the physios came on after a booking and Mcallister stayed on the pitch. Like us the Burnley fans were jeering like mad.

Bloody cheek for that lot to complain about that sort of stuff. They wrote the book.
