Absolutely dire performance but the loss of another two defenders through injury is more of a worry.:(

At least your blue rivals are dropping points Jim.;)

It wasn't even half convincing either, Rashford's flopped before the keeper even got there. Never seen Kane's, waiting for replay. Edit: Just seen it, need to do away with this minimal contact bollocks, there can be contact, if it isn't enough to send you flying like that then you've still dived. He's even stuck his leg in to convince himself.

Arsenal getting schooled. Title race is blown open, United let off with the draw, Arsenal top 4 ambitions are as good as dead.

You know Spurs are comfortable when Sissoko is subbed on.

This Summer, Wonga and Sports Direct films present, The White Hart Heist. When Newcastle United pulled off a £30 million heist in replacing cash with a random Frenchman named Sissoko.

Thought I would check out Celta Vigo ahead of Thursdays game, but as they have been resting 6 or 7 players before all of the Europa Cup games I'm guessing I won't learn much.☹️

Poor York City, demoted 2 years in a row and now in the 6th tier of football (National League North). They're in good company, Halifax and Stockport have also fallen to this level, mostly because of money issues. Its sad, but these teams still have their loyal support, so when your local two bit team hosts them (usual attendance a few hundred), there is a sudden influx of a few thousand ! Helps the kitty if nothing else.

They knocked RM out of one cup this year and I had read they have been prioritising the Cup comps this last few months, looking at the team they have out tonight confirms it.

Doesn't seem all that long ago I went to Wembley to support Rochdale, they lost to Stockport in the division 2 play offs that day. ☹️

My local team, the real MUFC (Maidenhead United) :naughty: have gone in the other direction up to the National League. First time they've ever been up to those giddy heights. And all under the leadership of a manager in his 2nd spell with us, someone Daddy will remember well, the flat cap wearing Mr Alan Devonshire. The Devolution has started! :D

Yes it was a pretty poor spectacle but a priceless 3 points and one of the goals of the season into the bargain as well.:)

CR7 strikes again, surprised at how poor Athletico looked going forward.
