[Albion] Premier League 12-14/1/24

[Green Cross Code Man]

See, I'm not sure about this.

If West Ham didn't want the fixture moved to Jan 2 - and it was moved in October - I'm sure they could have objected/stopped it.

Seen it reported anywhere?

Of course, they bleated later when they realised they'd lose a player, but that's their fault, frankly.

Well I think this is the article I read in which Moyes moans, one would think they tried to move it given his statement.

Moyes with thinly-veiled dig as West Ham prevented from playing Kudus

David Moyes hit out at the Premier League’s fixture schedulers after being prevented from picking Mohammed Kudus for West Ham’s goalless draw against Brighton. Kudus, who has arguably b…

He forgot the bits about having the refs watch two studs up challenges to the oppositions ankles and only give a booking for one and just a free kick for the other.

Double shame we didn’t get Palmer. He would have been great for us and Chelsea could be in the relegation zone without him

Wages.
He’s an arrogant character, will become a pantomime villain. Also has the worst haircut in the league!!!!

They are saying definite penalty but also ‘Sterling was really cute.’
Translation to English; he got away with making it look like a foul so all is good.
I always think about stuff like this when people say that ex players should be recruited as referees.

Agreed. Ex players/pundits are part of the problem with their 'he had every right to go down' bullshit.

I can see why a ‘big’ club has never come in for Cainey, flatters to deceive, looks like he’s been taking passing lessons from Dale Stephens!

It’s very annoying that Fulham are the best at converting big chances in the Premier League this season but not today against clucking Chelsea!

So you are telling me that you wouldn’t bloody love it if we had an arrogant pantomime villain? The thing about them is that they are annoyingly good, mostly

Silva should have had a yellow earlier. The foul where he left his foot in on the edge of their penalty area. Should be off.

Don’t know if it’s me but watching the game seems the pitch is really sticky or the players are just not that great at passing a ball

Harsh. His Mum puts loads of effort into that.

 

[Hugo Rune]

Frustrating. One poor Fulham tackle in the box responsible for giving Chelsea an undeserved win.

We need a competition about this, because there are some absolute shockers out there...

Horrible team beats slightly less horrible team...

Lets hope the Saudis get stuffed later and we will still be 7th...

Ederson injured through var. Great.

Ederson injured through var. Great.

WTF are assistant referees for any more? That was a clear offside but the flag stayed down until the goalie got hurt.

 

[Official Old Man]

Ederson injured through var. Great.

2nd City player isn't it? Lino lets play carry on despite offside and player gets injured and subbed. Isn't it time this stupid rule of keeping the flag down was scrapped, especially when the offside is blatant.
