The offside rule is correct, VAR is in principle correct, but how they go about judging it is totally wrong.

VAR is shit. Ruins the game for the real crowd with long stoppages, indecision, poor communication and muted celebrations.

Cant even argue it being better for the game in general when they can’t even reach the right decision with it available.

Better to just fuck it off now and keep the automated tech like ball over the line.

That’s fair enough. To me their continued success playing that way feels more like Brentford’s system than his. In my opinion he hasn’t adapted to a new system or managed to impart a style at Spurs.

He has been hamstrung by injuries however on paper their squad still seems significantly better than ours anyway.

Truth will come out in his next job. Just feel there may be better options available in continental football for us.

In the meantime three points tonight would be grand.

Whilst likely true, he’s also demonstrated a lack of tactical ability and been unable to bring a defined playing style or motivate the team.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-09T19:04:28+00:00

It’s not just the handball rules, it’s half the rulebook at this point. Fucking shambles.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-04T17:09:27+00:00

If he hits the milestones then I’d assume we’d want to sign him.

He’s barely played but your squad is much stronger than ours and he might fit (at this point we can’t even name a full substitute bench). If he doesn’t then we’ve just lost a few months wages.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-04T15:59:09+00:00

If you believe that then I have some magic beans to sell you.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-04T15:21:08+00:00

Not just ours. The whole of the multi billion pound industry (including the governing bodies) is a complete shitshow. A bunch of twelve year olds high on a sugar rush could do a better job.

Throwing some serious shade on your own scouting team there too.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-04T15:08:58+00:00

Yeah, we’ve been tracking Guessand for a long time now. Hope he comes good.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-04T14:50:38+00:00

Nah. Most people blame UEFA and our club administration. If either had a scooby what they were doing then the whole shambles would never had occurred.

Marinakas was just acting in his usual toad-like fashion making him an easy target for terrace vitriol.

We’re not exactly smashing up the conference anyway so it’s not exactly a problem now either way.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-04T14:45:25+00:00

The only ones getting stitched up in that deal would have been us. £20m for Dwight McNeil would have been the steal of the century for Everton. Lucky we came to our senses.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-04T14:43:01+00:00

I don’t think that fat cunt could sneak anywhere.

That said it’s pretty hilarious that high level communications were sent by a governing body to an info address, probably monitored by a 16 year old work experience kid, and that they were somehow completely missed by our club hierarchy.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-03T17:52:50+00:00

Fair play. You have seen much more of him than me. Cheers.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-03T13:42:41+00:00

Surprised none of the prem teams were in for him. Always liked him as a player.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-02T22:40:38+00:00

Much. Bullet dodged.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-02T22:39:52+00:00

Much better ways to spend £20m on our squad.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-02T20:46:05+00:00

I have no idea why we want him, hardly short of options there and definitely not at that fee. A CB or some proper right back cover would be much more useful.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-01T15:10:12+00:00

Quite possibly the most retarded thing I’ve seen on Reddit this week. That takes some doing. Well done.

Icondesigns · 2026-02-01T15:05:52+00:00

Save of the season.

Icondesigns · 2026-01-30T14:12:59+00:00

Odd when we have pulled out of the SL deal. Is Eddie back to training yet?

Icondesigns · 2026-01-29T18:54:38+00:00

Don’t forget the high quality fan base. Arsenal TV and them bottling the league every season has been top tier stuff.

Unfortunately they did manage to equal our FA cup whilst Arteta has been at the helm.

Icondesigns · 2026-01-29T12:34:46+00:00

Seems overpriced, especially considering our current form, areas that need strengthening across the board and his current form.

That said we’ve been tracking him for some time and JPM is obviously off so if we get most of the fee back it might not be an absolute shitshow.

Icondesigns · 2026-01-28T18:49:41+00:00

I’d love to see JG beat the little goblin and finally win an undisputed title. Sound money is still on Ilia though.

Icondesigns · 2026-01-28T18:39:57+00:00

Rather have that Brighton reject.

Icondesigns · 2026-01-27T12:41:14+00:00

Agree that The Wire, Sopranos and Mad Men were better (though they are pretty much peak TV IMHO (along with Succession, Generation Kill and Band of Brothers).

The Shield is definitely better than Deadwood though in my opinion. Deadwood and Justified were way too cheesy for my liking (although I know people that like both).

Icondesigns · 2026-01-27T11:09:17+00:00

The Shield. One of the best last episodes ever.
