Oh thank f***. Semi-automated, including the updated graphics for it, is significantly better

Always get cheesy chips from the stand outside. Reasonable value by football ground standards, food is always hot and as fresh as you'd expect for a chippy, and the staff don't rotate seemingly every game. Not perfect, but it's good, a decent portion and beyond generally having a large queue far...

Having watched the video, can't really buy the self defence argument. The first one or two are certainly, but he then remains in place and throws punches of his own. Obviously understandable in the moment, but he's no longer defending himself when throwing punches from the Brighton side of the...

Vicente was magic. He used to do stuff that didn't seem actually possible. Don't know I've ever seen another player in person who could receive a ball dropping from the heavens and just take all the pace off it like he could. Just frankly incredible If he'd been fit regularly he'd likely have...

Great point, still odd to think we can (and often do) match up with the big spenders. I am hopeful that the return of Enciso may help us unlock the more defensive minded teams, but if a team really comes at us I agree we're far more likely to make things work

Think the snag we may have is that we have three games against the title contenders, while West Ham and United only have two. Hopefully West Ham's European schedule will slow them in the league a bit

I know people are feeling low about the result etc... today, but it is honestly wonderful news that both made the game and are doing about as ok as you could expect from the situation

Bit of a long shot in the circumstances, but Jack is (understandably) trying to source a crutch or walking stick to make attending the game a bit easier. Hospital didn't provide one for him. Any ideas? EDIT: Informed by @AstroSloth that Jack is sorted for a crutch now, so hopefully things'll...

Glad to hear they're both about as ok as can be expected in the circumstances. Never understand this stuff, people just want to enjoy a game.

I was gonna say. I mean LAFC are nearly a decade old at this point

I believe the league did propose detailed punishments for types of PSR breaches. However the clubs voted it down. That's why a regulator is needed really, clubs set the rules they're holding themselves to.

Club of course has to be mindful of home grown players regulations, so I assume would prefer British. For that I'd say likely Ross Barkley, Ben Mee or (possibly) Matt Ritchie. If we're going non-British then it would have to be Eriksen (year on his deal but gettable) or Thiago for me.

Yes, had this been given it would be a yellow card at most. Not really a case for DOGSO distance between offence and goal: Mitoma is well inside the box general direction of the play: Again, well inside the box and moving forwards and inside likelihood of keeping or gaining control of the ball...

It's ridiculous to have any complaints about the red at all, his studs end up in Mitoma's thigh! I think the only thing Sheffield could maybe be frustrated by was the disallowed goal. Under the current rules it's probably correctly disallowed, but VAR and Atwell made a right pig's ear of the...

Yeah I've had similar with the ticketing site before, and clearing the cookies usually resolves it. Frustrating, but does sort it

Invasive dental surgery sounds NASTY. Even getting fillings sucks, full surgery is not gonna be fun

My dad discovered that one of the coats the club sells (the Europa League one I think) has an inside pocket that is almost the exact right size for a programme, but maybe an inch too narrow. Feels like they've missing a trick

Buy every game, home and away (except West Ham where I couldn't find any). Tbh I don't read them often so no idea why I do it!

I would like to credit the Villa fans who were genuinely excellent. Brought a good number given it’s a cold Wednesday and a competition no one really cares about, and sang constantly and loudly. Also had an amazing variety of songs

As others have noted, stuff not sold by the club seems far nicer. The Art of Football stuff seems way better, it’s cheaper and I’ve heard quality is good. Even the AoF scarf is better!
