Multi-function football thread 2019/20 season

[The Far North]

Celtic stole the League Cup from under Rangers' noses this afternoon. They played at their best this season and we played at our worst, but the football gods were on our side.

That's pretty much how it looked to me as well.

That's pretty much how it looked to me as well.

Thing is if they could play like that every week they would probably win the league.

How Morelos stayed on the pitch is a mystery to me, what a nasty piece of work

While the racism perpetrated at the derby was deeply unpleasant (and hopefully the guilty party will be banned permanently) I hope the authorities are equally assiduous in tracking down & punishing the idiots that were throwing coins & other missiles at the players. There's plenty of footage of the crowd in that section of the ground. It should be possible to identify some of the culprits.

 

[Woodface]

They have identified the racist, he will be banned & probably lose his job.

Looks like FFP is finally kicking in.. maybe it wasn't about bans, and the correct restrictions for the club's size are finally having an impact?

Pep the derby dunce is pumping up the tyres on his bike in readiness to leave Man Crappy, who have some racist supporters. Neither is a shock.

On the plus side have managed to move the journey (at minimal cost) to February which coincides with when we play Jose's North London losers.

Yes, that’s a real shame.

Well played Liverpool, first half like a game of basketball with end to end chances. Salah should have had 5 at least

 

[Spiderous]

The one he eventually managed to take was superb

 

[Woodface]

Phew, edgy win away at Charlton, dominated game but took an extra time winner from a local lad to seal it.

 

[webster]

Yes, that’s a real shame.

I think I was a bit calmer on the sofa at home watching the last 20 minutes than I would have been at the ground.

Yes, we have to learn how to control games like that. Remy’s goal changed everything rather too dramatically!
