Football

Also just had talk sport in with Martin Keown and Simon Jordan. Fuck it's so horrible to listen to. Each of them trying to be the rightest person ever regarding footballing issues.

only Man Utd and Man City are really going to challenge that total and Arsenal are 8/9 points ahead of them both.

You're not wrong. Which is why things could be looking even rosier for Arsenal in a few fixture's time. Sunday's game is massive. Can't wait.

Had to do some googling but it was 07/08 when we last were at the top at Christmas

Anyone watching the Liverpool game coverage?

BBC broadcasting porn moans in the studio and can’t seem to stop them.

Someone has a Bluetooth paring setup with those speakers.

It was definitely a prank. Went on for 20 mins, repeating the same 5 seconds.

Reckon someone hid a speaker somewhere in the studio.

… probably made more sense than Shearer blathering on ….
.. oh , and Diego Costa plays for Wolves … well,I never … !

Another 90mins in which me and Alan Shearer watched different matches.

Liverpool turned up and did a professional job? No. If Wolves had an in-form striker, Liverpool would be out. They were shite.

An "interesting" conclusion from the FA
https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11095/12789094/fa-concludes-john-yems-is-not-a-conscious-racist-despite-outlining-a-string-of-offensive-racial-remarks

Can you imagine saying just one of these things at work and still being in the building an hour later?

But the FA panel did, however conclude that Yems:

Described Muslim members of the squad as "terrorists"
Deliberately mispronounced the second half of Arnold Schwarzenegger's name to emphasise the N-word
Used a racial stereotype to a black player of African origin by asking if he liked jerk chicken > Told Muslim players "your people blow up stuff with vests"
Said that an Iraqi youth international at the club "would probably blow up the stadium"
Repeatedly made comments about another player "carrying a bomb in his
bag"
Called one player a "curry muncher" and asked if the player was unhappy that they did not server "curry pizza"
Made a remark to one player about "how dark his skin is'" on his return to Crawley after representing Grenada

What even is a 'curry pizza' anyway?

What a colossal cunt

The FA continues it policy
"Our continued aim is to eradicate racism in football by ensuring no barriers exist to anyone enjoying our national game – whatever their ethnic background."

Unless its just "banter"

It’s a staple here in Sweden.
The place nearest me has as its special ‘banana, curry, and prawn.’

What even is a 'curry pizza' anyway?

Curry pizza sounds amazing. Also the rest sounds very much like the kind of stuff a racist would say.

I would crush a curry pizza right now.

When I was at Uni in Sheffield in the 90's my local pizza/curry house (Barber Road in Walkley) would do a chicken tandoori pizza.

Chicken has no place on a pizza, but tandoori chicken certainly did.

Yems is a cunt though.

For all the curry pizza lovers, get to East West in Tufnell Park.

I mean , I hate Leeds as much as the next man … but , wow , that’s a corking goal … 30 seconds into a cup replay …. really well taken …. and I think they just said he’s 19 .. ! Wow ..

And the absolute thunderer Yems says he’s not racist and deserves an apology
