How do you know he didn’t have a capsule in his mouth like that bloke from Harlequins? I wouldn’t put it past Brighton to have pre-planned it

Again, would Gabriel or Jacquet have received a yellow for a similar challenge in the first 5 minutes … I would suggest not

It’s the inconsistency … in the first 20 minutes, whenever we passed the ball forward the player making the pass was cleaned out by a Brighton player so he couldn’t join with the attack, and Oliver completely ignored these incidents

The problem was that Ajer got unfairly booked in the first 5 minutes, Brighton then got away with countless off the ball challenges, and the sense of frustration was compounded by Oliver taking an eternity to blow up for the foul on Thiago, by...

That team of which you speak, has only lost 3 away games in the Premier League this calendar year, 2 of which were against the teams who finished 2nd and 3rd last season

Yes and it sleeted / snowed for most of the match IIRC

Fascinating fact (or not…) : I got married in April 1990 shortly after we lost a Division 3 match at the Cottage. We then didn’t lose another away game at Fulham for the first 32 years of my married life (11 matches unbeaten)

I don’t have a problem with the Madueke incident. Because it’s Arsenal and they get away with things, it has at least highlighted how the innocent-looking and “much-wronged” Iraola has encouraged his players to wind up the opposition at set...

On the evidence of yesterday, he is simply a ref incapable of telling the difference between a fair tackle and a bad tackle. And when players lose confidence in a referee, the dissent gets worse (such as Vitaly against Liverpool)

Perfectly legitimate “coming to” with a cheating Argie if you ask me … the threshold for making decisions in favour of Argentinian / Uruguayan players (and Jacquet) should be several times higher than it is for “normal” players

It’s not just Delap, when they take him off they bring on Chris Wood 🤣

How do you define “success” for a club like Brentford? We’re not going to consistently challenge for trophies compared with the likes of Liverpool / Arsenal / Man City / Chelsea etc, for me I’m more than happy for us to be competitive in the...

“And because we’re not good enough…” Take a long hard look at yourself, we are the 4th highest scorers in what is an extremely competitive league … in the real world, what do you want, what do you expect???

He got the assist. AGAIN

But would she have got into the position to take the chance?

For a 6ft 2in centre back, Jacquet is a proper soft lad. Not only was there the Yarmo incident, he went down like a sack of spuds twice in the second half under challenges from Thiago : the first one got Igor booked and the second one (Igor...

OMG that “influencer” who the BBC have adopted as their Brentford “observer” is asking the question “should Igor be benched for Hull?” He eventually concludes “no”, but that’s not a question that needs to be asked in the first place

Being pedantic here, we were ahead for 2 or 3 minutes until Yarmo got sent off so that’s hardly “complete control”, and Szoboszlai had gone off 20 minutes earlier…

The MotD commentator got that call completely wrong too

So this isn’t a problem for you this weekend, you’re just kicking off because there is literally nothing else to kick off about … like that person who went mad about the lack of Bromley on-line tickets, when you could just turn up and pay on the day

Leatherhead have the same issue v Yeovil

I get the impression that it’s the Twitter babies who didn’t go to the match but simply looked at the stats who think that - well-adjusted Villa fans seem to have thought that it was a good match with a fair result. Anyway I’ll save Edmundo …...

Mad staring eyes

Richarlison : another one who looks like a rat Garnacho : Argentinian and has birdsh*t on his head Bentancur : Spurs’ latest ill-disciplined South American

Barco for starters : 3 major crimes - he’s Argentinian, ginger and plays for Chelsea

With respect, I don’t see how medical emergencies and assaults on staff can be described as “shambles”

Why wasn’t Cash sent off for that off the ball challenge?
