GW12 - Deadline Saturday 11th November 11 AM

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Hello! Last GW before the international break, so it’s all go. Last chance for VAR to annoy everyone for a while.

Saturday 11 November

Wolves 12:30 Spurs Nice and gentle start…
TNT Sports
Arsenal 15:00 Burnley You’d think Arsenal would win. Saka might be back.
Crystal Palace 15:00 Everton Ditto with Palace!
Man Utd 15:00 Luton I give up predicting Utd results.
Bournemouth 17:30 Newcastle Tooooon!
Sky Sports

Sunday 12 November

Aston Villa 14:00 Fulham Watkins is on form this week.
Brighton 14:00 Sheffield Utd Brighton are riding on a Europe high, and the Blades really aren’t.
Liverpool 14:00 Brentford Another Reds VAR controversy? Probability high
West Ham 14:00 Nott'm Forest I may skip this. It’s not cooking my bananas, or whatever the saying is.
Sky Sports
Chelsea 16:30 Man City The Big Game. Which will probably be bad tempered and annoying to watch.
Sky Sports

Go tend to your teams!

VAR getting a really bad press right now.
I think the "experts" (most of whom appear to be ex Untidy players who conveniently forget how Wolves were robbed earlier this season) need to read up on what VAR is all about. They should come to the crushing realisation that it only has final say over offside calls. Otherwise it hands the responsibility back to the on field officials in cases of video reviews. The latter then make a decision.
VAR does not send players off ;)
Cheers.

Just seen it. BS. Let city be and hit a smaller club instead, who overspent by a few quid. Hmm.

It's a bit more than a few quid. £372m loss in three seasons where there is a £105m cap over the same period.
FFP FC are still under investigation. But if Neverton get a 10 point penalty, then they should have titles stripped & be booted out of the premier league for their shenanigans. As should Chelski who seem to be still financially involved with Abramovic.
Cheers.

Oh I'd read they were £124m over a £105m limit. Ah well, still don't want to see them kicked out of any leagues, just let nature take its course.
