Hmm yes probably then

The opposition also can famously win a corner if you put the ball directly in your own net from a free kick. Which i assume was something that happened a few times in the 1800s which is why its in the laws of the game

The great thing is that they also clearly let these things go by against certain teams and players, so it stacks up much more for half the league and bot for others for entirely arbitrary reasons

Posted something similar last season and again first half of this one, but to me the clearest indication you need to stick with Ange and give him the tools to succeed is the reality that Spurs have scored the second most goals w/o a top 10 goal scorer.

I've been slightly obsessed with the impact of recovery days between games across the PL this season. This data is only really 'surface level' and doesn't take into account strength of oppo, whether you play home-Home, home-away etc but is illustrative.
Each team in the PL's average number of full day recoveries between games (in all comps) this season.

So boring now, its every single game we play. Youd think we were the only team in the league with a style. Everton have a style and get battered every week for it

Postecoglu is making the punditocriti (apologies) look stupid and dull and they resent him for it. Play-safe bores who sum up why Ingerland men are not much cop at football.

1) its a different comp now, more teams going to ucl and uel has made it even worse 2) our reserves back then were far worse than chelseas now

Romero has done more with one quote than purple and gold have achieved since their first club shop protest. Fans that go against Levy don’t realise they simply enable him to rinse and repeat the cycle. The 4D chess is for us to make it impossible for him to tap out if we believe in a manager.

Happens every year with chelsea especially. They go overly aggressive and get rewarded for it. We add a small amount of aggression and the referee will step in

Fergus @ferguscostello.bsky.social · 08/12/2024
Why did we look so tired and unable to get a foothold of the game in the second half. Mostly because chelsea could kick through us, barge us over without consequence to win back the ball. Players naturalky go into themselves when theres such a huge bias in the marginal fouls

Fergus @ferguscostello.bsky.social · 08/12/2024
Not talking about the second pen. And idk because im on the other side of the ground. The ref had decided it long long before that

Fergus @ferguscostello.bsky.social · 08/12/2024
The game today was solely determined by the fact that anthony taylor woke up and fancied a chelsea win

Fergus @ferguscostello.bsky.social · 08/12/2024
No chelsea built up pressure because the ref let them. Soft fouls to get them out of danger. Letting them kick us and drag us down all over the park without giving fouls.

Tbf theyve taken the one line he says which is sort of criticism of ENIC and ran with. 20 years there is the owner and they didnt win something

i think INTERSTELLAR is a bona fide masterpiece — maybe nolan's greatest film — and i'm not at all ashamed to say that i weep every time i watch it.

Interstellar’s Most Enduring Quality Is What People Used to Hate About It
Christopher Nolan’s sci-fi spectacle is fascinating precisely because of what so many pegged as its fatal flaw in 2014: its unabashed emotionality.

Ref was awful for those kind of small fouls against us. Then any time a bournemouth player felt contact hed blow. Most refs are like this because we dont complain enough about it

There also did seem to be more unity and if we wanted to direct frustration/irritation we did it to external factors/clubs/players. Mourinho years broke that and it never really come back

Headline should be "ipswich support morsy in decision to not wear rainbow armband". Clearly hes a cunt but clearly so are the people running the club and they need more criticism if anything

Seems to be a pattern with the club that they make some good signings then waste most of the rest of our money on half arsed ideas and prospects. Never fully in with a manager/project, never fully out

Sympathetic to yesterday's team given we're on our arse for injuries. But in the summer, there was serious concern that a squad that barely managed 41 games would struggle with 50+, and on 1st December we've got 7 players who have never started a PL game on the bench.

The rules over permissible losses changed over 10 years ago. The way they were enforced changed. It required 14 premier league clubs to agree to them

Okay? You were the one who made the assertion. Youre also 7th in wages, 6th in wages to turnover ratio, 6th in player amortisation. You spent loads, reached your limit and need to make more to spend more

It's incredible that we're still putting up with this. Five whole actual minutes of staring at a still image as if it's going to suddenly reveal the right answer. There is no objective truth. Please give up.

Thoughts from Twitter on Ange Postecoglou and how he controls the perception around him. He’s very self aware (an avid reader of @dankp.bsky.social’s, he admitted last week) and reckon he knows who to give time to and who to hush in his own way.

I think the particularly galling thing is they could, like the way they could talk about the open letter. BBC wrote a whole front page article about a transphobic letter in womens football (in favour of what it said) but nothing on that

Given woolwich managed to sign bournemouths first choice as back up, im willing to bet its not for lack of options we didnt do anything. Just the same of lack of willingness to do anything that isnt "a deal"
