Well done.

That's a stonewall red.
Players attempting to clear the ball should not be deemed an aggressive tackle.
It’s a booking, he’s late, but it’s not a 3 game ban.
Displaying it as if it’s a studs first lunge is ridiculous.
He went in studs up knee height, of course it's a red.
Not a red
No he didn’t. He went in side foot first to clear the ball and didn’t get there first.
This would happen almost every time someone kicks a football more than 30 yards if you plonked a player beside them.
It’s contact. It’s a foul. It’s a yellow.
I’m not denying his studs caught his knee. That’s not the challenge he’s making though, is it. If you don’t understand that, you don’t understand motion.
It's reckless and dangerous, he hits him knee height with his studs, it's an absolutely blatant red.
It’s clumsy and late.
Respectfully disagree, but whatever.
England are in deep trouble in the summer if that boy starts.
Jesus christ, you've got to be absolutely brainless to get to do that on a yellow.
Is Grealish injured? Villa are awful.
You've got to be more brainless to care
The Athletic is now available for £1 per month. Get involved.

But surely that element of it is basically the headline thing from whenever he first saw these proposals?it is understood he felt uneasy regarding the lack of competition in a new tournament in which 15 clubs including United would be guaranteed entry, and spent the next two days considering whether he could support it.
Plebs like him wouldn't have been in the loop, this was about moving the share prices.
Ed 100% would have known the full deal. He's arse covering.
Lolz
Ryan Giggs charged with assault on two women. He’s a bit of a creepy cunt, isn’t he?
He hasn't exactly endeared himself to people post-playing career, but surely enough's enough at this point and we'll never hear from him again?
This probably rules him out of the United job.
Fingers and toes crossed.
Paul Scholes must be relieved that he's no longer the biggest post-playing twat of the crew.
Rumours are that he's been sacked from the Wales job which you'd hope is true.
Hope? He's done.
Gary Speed > Chris Coleman > Ryan Giggs is a distinct moral and talent decline each time.
Does Craig Bellamy have his badges?
Gary Speed didn't even work his notice, so I'm not sure how fondly the Welsh FA regard him.
Quite a lot of Wales feels like it's still in the 1950's (when topping yourself was still a crime) so that must count against him too.
Jose Mourinho, Wales Manager.
That would actually be a really good fit if it wasn't for Bale.
"When I need Gareth I'll call him up."
Having Martyn Tyler call them 'the shameful six' sort of makes me want said six teams to collectively to tell Sky/The Premier League to stick it and watch the world burn.
It's all a bit 'We made you and we can destroy you'.
This match is the best advert for a super league they could do. Fucking atrocious.
Not when it involves one of the SUPER teams.
They'll need some goalkeeping reinforcements if they're to avoid the ignominy of finishing 20th in the SL.
Funny that they sold the best keeper in the league this season for a pittance.
I say thanks every day.
I don't remember there being a recent season where so many teams are vying for 3rd and 4th place.
Exciting.
West Ham might genuinely be in with a shot if they get a result tomorrow. Chelsea's run in is brutal and everyone else below them is just a bit shit.
The unstoppable force of poetic justice is now with them and Lester too.
This bit of the BBC Gossip page took me aback somewhat this morning:
Not sure I had any recollection of him having gone there.Everton's Norwegian striker Josh King is in talks with Turkish side Galatasaray and the 29-year-old seems set to leave the club this summer.
It also too me about 3 days the other day to remember Ajax were in Liverpool's Champions League group this season, which I'm not sure says more about me, the Champions League group stage or the general plight of football in the last year.
Think it was Jimmy who said new football gets forgotten pretty quickly and the old stuff you can recite to the closest detail. Very true. Off the top of my head I'm not sure what our third fixture back was, but you ask me to talk you through the Channel 5 hosted 97/98 UEFA cup run and it's no problem.
