Are any players allowed in the penalty area before the ball is kicked? I thought no one was allowed into the area in which case, plenty of those should have been disallowed for encroachment (see #4 in the 10 examples video)? Unless, the attacking players are allowed in the box, but I don;t think...

I recall a mate oif mine from school being mad about her. He went to see her at The Dome and said that the entire back row of lads were just w@nking!! I'd love to name and shame, but he's a lot bigger than me still!!

Based on some posts on the Bruno thread, I got wondering about people's first crushes. Who was yours? Don't be shy. You're among friends, so be honest. Mine was Leela from Dr Who. I had this poster on my bedroom wall.

Any news of Pascal? He was there congratulating all the players as they left the pitch yesterday and didn't appear to be injured.

I know what you mean, but he does look very high quality indeed. Smooth was the word that I heard around me in WSL. And funny you should mention Vicente. At one point in the centre of the pitch he lifted the ball over the oppo player and then picked the ball up again from a one two. It totally...

And do you remember how excited we all were about that!

Shame he doesn't know what reactionary means (opposing political or social progress or reform). Assume he meant reactive?

I understood that we'd brought in a specialist set piece coach?

He's still going on about Charlton!!

Igor split opinions @brianwade - as much as you think he was excellent, as many think he had an error strewn game. There were mitigating circumstances, but we was far from excellent IMHO.

I think there's a "who's the best resort?" thing too. I've lived in Dorset for about 5 years and when I mention Brighton, people often seem to go right into a comparison with Bournemouth. I carefully explain that, rather like the football clubs, there's no bloody comparison.

Pascal injured?

That's really interesting. So their fitness guy was allowed to be there. Rather wish I hadn't lost my shit at him now!!

Interesting to hear this from a ref's perspective. thanks. Should their coach have been allowed to run the session? And if so, why was he allowed to leave the technical area?

This may have been covered, but I wonder if RdZ intended to play Fati and Ferguson until Evan had to go home sick? In his post match presser, Roberto mentions that "JP did well" whilst he was talking about missing players (Dunk and Ferguson). I know Dunk was a huge miss, but having Evan and Fati...

And the Lamptey assault. And booking Pedro when he didn't dive, but not their guy seconds later when he did dive.

And is a coach allowed to come and run a session?

Why was one of the AEK coaches allowed to lead a near permanent warm up session with the Athens subs in front of the South West stand? Eventually, in the second half, the fourth official moved vaguely in his direction and appeared to be telling him to come back to the box. The coach put his...

Joao Pedro

Worthy of NSC (from the aek fan site): Like the anecdote about the blondes who were on the branch and were sawing it. And the old woman passed by and told them what are you doing there, you will fall... they broke their faces and when they saw her again they said to each other look at the...
