France Vs England 8pm

Never a red

Last man .

Nothing at all. Just my opinion but I thought the minute's silence was a powerful enough tribute on its own.

Understood, I think there is also a reciprocal tribute given when they played at Wembley soon after an attack in France.

Moving on, was that really a red card offence ?

 

[Eeyore]

Never a red

No. And there was no need anyway. It's a friendly. I'd rather see us play their eleven.

 

[mikeyjh]

Well that was interesting....video referee used and a straight red produced.

2-2

How the cluck was that a red? I don't know the rules any more.

 

[Buzzer]

Not even sure that the Frenchman fouled Dele Alli let alone a sending off offence.

 

[Titanic]

No. And there was no need anyway. It's a friendly. I'd rather see us play their eleven.

Are the rules different in a friendly?

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Is this rugby, hockey or basketball?

It can't be football because the season has finished. Nobody in their right mind would want to watch a football match now would they?

I'm sort of watching.

Er indoors is out, and I am not in the mood to watch the Jo Cox documentary. That's recording for when I have the stomach for it.

It's very much background stuff though.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Video replays are a no from me

Still got the wrong decision and still had players surrounding him

But Kane is a machine

30 goals in 25 games this year

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Are the rules different in a friendly?

They are often, shall we say, stretched.

Last man .

Isn't it the double jeopardy thing now? If it's a penalty, you only get a yellow.

 

[Marshy]

Sending off all day long, clipped his legs and would have scored, what's the issue ?

 

[brightn'ove]

Isn't it the double jeopardy thing now? If it's a penalty, you only get a yellow.

Only if there is a genuine attempt to win the ball.

 

[lawros left foot]

Only if the collision is deemed 'accidental'

I thought that was, clumsy more than intentional.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I can't believe I'm the only one with a touch of xenophobia here. We're playing a load of foreigners, so the Empire of Britain need to put these upstarts in their place
What, you were thinking it as well

 

[Eeyore]

Are the rules different in a friendly?

Rules tend to be interpreted more liberally. I've seen many a potential sending off left be. It's better for the game.

That said, I think they are doing away with friendlies soon. I'm sure I read something about leagues being formed.

 

[Beach Hut]

Did Hoddle just say "free cock-up"

 

[Me and my Monkey]

Goodness, what a dull game..

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Our defence is utter shit.

If Dunk can't get in this side then there's something wrong.

 

[brightn'ove]

I thought that was, clumsy more than intentional.

Sorry, I got it wrong, see edited post
