Left on the full time whistle. Queued for a couple of minutes at the ticket office to pick up my ticket for Saturday. Walked back to Hove. Home just after 11.

He moved the goalposts as well? That's terrible refereeing if he missed Toney doing that.

There's something uncanny about how AI-generated images get the anatomy of human hands spot on for Palace fans.

I guess it's these engineering works that are causing the disruption: https://www.nationalrail.co.uk/engineering-works/sheffield-new-mills-central-20240127/ It doesn't have any warning about the journey planner not being updated yet and does say that there will still be one TPE train per hour...

JPVH blocked so many West Ham attacks that when Webster went off RDZ seemed to be happy to switch to one at the back. I hope it doesn't give him new tactical ideas to free up more players to attack. We won't get away with it every game.

That is an embarrassment of riches to choose from. I will grudgingly accept a few 1-1s against Burnley and Sheffield United if it means we have thirteen (thirteen!) glorious, memorable home wins like that in a year. Some of them were proper rub-my-eyes "What have I just seen?" moments. Okay...

I've taken a laptop to the Amex a couple of times. It's a little bigger than A4 so the bag it was in was a little bigger still and the stewards on the gate didn't exactly look pleased. But when they saw that it really was just a laptop in the bag they applied a bit of discretion. Those guys see...

What you wrote didn't read as self-indulgent at all, just as someone who's received a massive shock, something that's too big to take in all at once and sending your mind racing in all directions trying to get a grip on it. If writing it down and posting here helped, it was worth it for that...

Maybe that was Lallana trying to dictate the tempo: "lads, this is the pace we should be playing at". But our other outfield players were having too much fun and refused to slow down.

I chuckled at that at the time. He didn't blink when the Marseille ultras tried to put him off a penalty at the Stade Velodrome. I doubt he even noticed that those Spurs fans were there.

Looks like we're the last team standing. I noticed a couple of weeks ago that the MOTD commentator said that Sheffield United's 1-0 win against Brentford was their first clean sheet this season, then Luton's 1-0 against the Saudis ended the conceding run of our final competitor. As far as I can...

Either the inbreeding around Croydon is getting worse or those image generators still really can't do hands.

I think the club should have done another three-match pack for the round of 16, quarter-final and semi-final home games, same price as the group stage pack. Then we'd have seen which of our supporters had the big balls to try to bank the discount on the semi-final ticket, at the risk of paying...

That's some chilling new nightmare fuel. I particularly liked the advice that "[if] it does happen, you should present to your doctor as an absolute emergency". Does any man need to be told that? I would be elbowing all the heart attacks, strokes and broken bones out of the way to get to the...

I'm trying to work out whether this might tend to produce a closed shop like tier 1 ticket allocations. Does having an extra team in Europe next season mean that those two associations will likely rake in more coefficient points and gain the extra places again the following season? Or actually...

Looking at it from another angle, I wonder if we're already safe from relegation this season. Historical precedent suggests that more points will be needed and I'd assume that the bottom three will improve their run rate a bit as the season wears on... but will they?

I just noticed this morning that the names of the ref and VAR are now the first things I look for in the opening stat fart. And that made me a little sad.

That will take the edge off my envy slightly while I'm sitting in chilly Sussex trying to follow the action from JC's commentary. At least I've got a nice bottle of Harvey's Tom Paine to drink. Would still rather be in Athens.

Come on Billy, give us a St Andrew's Day to remember. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Favourite moment on the commentary so far: "Can they get some quality into the box? Akpom is in there!" Asked and answered.
