Midweek football (3rd - 5th)

[Adramelch]

Interesting. I remember when we beat City with Owen's 97th minute goal, the media seemed to all agree that it was meant to be 30 seconds extra per goal.

I was wondering if that was the case. 30 seconds per goal is all I've ever heard cited as well, is that just nonsense?

The only similar thing I've heard is 30 seconds per substitution.

Some one touch giroudesque finish. Whats with Liverpool and Arsenal, both taking their foot off their opponents necks in the second half of European games.

Hate to link to the Daily Mail, but it's the first article I found.

Referees tend to follow guidelines, which are that for every goal or substitution you should allow 30 seconds

Graham Poll reckons 30 seconds per goal is right.

30 seconds per sub. I don't think there's ever been time off for goals.

EDIT: above contradicts that but in 20 years watching football I've always thought no time off for goals (which is why refs hurry the celebrators back to their own half).

Glorious.

The shapes the ref pulled giving the second penalty. What a wanker.

I was going to post the same. The highlight of the clip.

The Wolves manager is a legend, I've thought so all season. Got a proper mood swing up his sleeve.

The new mourinho including all the throwbacks to Mendes.

Cavaleiro needs to be fined for that second penalty challenge. No idea what he was thinking. Ive never lost my voice during a game ive watched on TV before until last night
