What the hell has happened to Man City? Todays game was a must not lose for them and they crumbled.

I wonder if Pep sees this as a challenge and commits further to the club. I can't find the quotes, didn't he say he would leave if the players stopped playing for him?

Pep has plenty of credit in the bank, many other managers do not.

...and real money in the transfer market as well having spent more than the other 19 prem teams combined in the recently closed transfer window.

Not a good day to be a Liverpool fan, definitely a good day to be a Plymouth fan.

No alcohol at 2034 World Cup in Saudi Arabia

The ambassador to the UK has confirmed fans will not be able to buy beer in the country, adding ‘plenty of fun can be had without alcohol’

Beer was not sold at stadiums at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar but supporters were able to buy alcohol from selected hotels and other outlets. That will not be the case in Saudi Arabia, however, where the sale of alcohol is prohibited and penalties for consumption include jail, flogging and deportation.

The ambassador, Prince Khalid bin Bandar bin Sultan Al Saud, was asked on LBC if, at the 2034 World Cup, fans would be able to buy alcohol anywhere during the tournament.

Desperation was OGS (Ole Gunnar Solskjaer) at Man Utd. The depths of their own doing. What the hell is this now?

As a supporter of both these teams it was interesting to watch, but Plymouth deservedly went through.:)

l wonder what iadom thinks of it all as he has supported them as man and boy.

I have said many time and in many places, until the Glazers leave things will never improve. They are still bleeding the club dry. Still as bad as United are they got a deserved draw at Anfield and put Arsenal out of the FA Cup with only ten men for most of the game.;)

l certainly agree with your sentiments on the Glazers but is Ratcliffe any better?.

Also laying off staff who have been devoted to the club and cutting many other things beside is also not a very good optic.

l feel sorry for Amorin as he has had to deal with one of the poorest squads since before Sir Alex.

What were your thoughts on Rashford Jim?

Re: Season 2024/2025
 
Ratcliffe doesn't seem to have had much success with his other football enterprises. The jury is still out at Banks Towers. Rashford is a strange one. He had definitely lost the plot, his onfield demeanor and lack of effort had become overwhelming. I sincerely hope he can get it back together at Villa.

You reckon rimjob can win a title? He did set Sporting up hard to beat which is ultimately what you want as a fan.

l am afraid Man Utd are light year's away from even challenging for the title in my view.

It took Liverpool long enough to win it again and Arsenal are trying to get to that promised land

Not sure about that, a large number of Burnley fans are not that enthusiastic about their current manager even with only 9 conceded all season so far. They are currently known as Burnley F0-0tball club.:rolleyes:
