Bit awkward for evening games mind

I think Wenger recently was advocating for the rule to be daylight between the players.

Are there any Sheff Utd players who can assume the Clive Mendonca boyhood fan and destroyer role?

On a serious note, let’s hope the lad recovers well. Very reminiscent of Given’s injury v West Ham all those years ago.

Glad you’ve conceded

I saw my nuero consultant last week who has tweaked my meds. I saw him private as we are covered through my wifes company. I got a copy of a letter he sent my GP on Friday. I have just tried to call my GP's surgery to see when I can get my updated meds. I was on the phone 30 minutes and just gave up. The NHS is fucked. It truly is. Thanks you tory CUNTS

I can't believe any mackem doesn't want promotion, if they say they don't it's a comfort thing. They're unlikely to break Derby's record. And once relegated will get parachute payments making them more competitive. On balance promotion is a good thing for them so for me the best outcome is for them to get smashed by Sheffield United or another penalty loss heart break.

It's okay to be wrong.

% of unraised flags resulting in serious injury will be miniscule.

Well now you’re talking about percentage of risk. That’s distinctly different to my point being invalid. Look we disagree on it, and unlikely to get to a mutual agreement. It’s not an exact science and can be looked at from different points of view.

How often does it happen in a game? If players routinely play 95+ minutes in a match then the amount of time played (and risk of player injury) is reduced by a tiny amount by changing the protocol. It’s using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

Part of me hopes they do spawn it … and have 38 games of utter pain next year.

Disagree that it invalidates the point.

If players only got hurt when play possibly should've been stopped you'd have a point.

Yes.

Play to the whistle.

Their massive cash boost is already committed on signing that French lad that spent most of the time injured since he joined on loan. Mackems at work are desperate to not come up because they are absolutely convinced they'll go back down having broken Derby's point record. On that basis - I wish them all the luck in the world in the playoff final

If they get promoted they will get a massive cash boost, maybe even become attractive to a rich buyer. Fuck them, a decade in the wilderness is 100 times too short a time. Can't believe what I'm hearing from some posters here.

And if its blatantly offside why did the player(s) still carry on resulting in the injury?

And your logic only holds because it’s not involving a Newcastle player. if that was Isak in hospital now there’s no way all of you would have the attitude “tough shit, it’s one of them things”

New linesman flag prototype spotted

Raise the safety flag !!!!

Your logic only holds if players only clatter posts/get hurt when there's an offside not given. Offside or not, foul or not, players get hurt.

I’d rather have 100 PL goals chalked off than see one Newcastle player hospitalised because of the linesman going too late with his flag.
