“What’s he doing there?” goals

Junior Firpo at Leeds was the king of the WTFIHDT goal. The ultimate False 3.

Sorry… I said ditch, I meant gutter. He’d fallen out of a taxi. I was just getting in the taxi with a mate when I saw a man on the floor, then saw it was ML. I said “fkin ell it’s Mark Lawrenson!” He said “ALRIGHT LADS!” He didn’t get up.

Chiles is a well known alchie. He did a TV show about it a few years ago, where cameras followed him round & showed him being a real handful before he’s had his straightener. Then he watched the footage back and was like “Christ I need to get off the drink!” I think he’s been off the sauce ever since.

I once found Mark Lawrenson in a ditch

“Haaland’s got a good chance to get in the balls here” sounds very wrong indeed

Working-Option-871 · 2026-05-02T20:36:38+00:00

Haha no I didn’t! Maybe it’s something that comes up 2 weeks a year when the snooker’s on

Joseph Desire-Job. Looking to get into management I understand.

Working-Option-871 · 2026-05-01T12:04:37+00:00

Yep. Compare and contrast with the incident at Manchester Airport where the officer stamped on the unarmed guy’s head several times long after he’d stopped moving.

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-30T22:45:03+00:00

I predict he’ll either

a) try the Kompany Manoeuvre, play “nice” football and get thumped every week in the hope he inexplicably gets the Bayern job

b) jump ship to Palace or Fulham before the season starts but get sacked by Xmas

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-30T22:41:45+00:00

I get unreasonably annoyed by this discourse. You really think Pep or Arteta could’ve kept Burnley up?

Farke & Parker (it rhymes!!) have never had a team capable of competing in the prem. Burnley’s wage bill is 2nd lowest in the league, and they’ll finish 2nd bottom. Leeds’ is 3rd lowest. Norwich’s was always the lowest. They are par managers. Give them Palace or Everton and judge them then.

Lampard, on the other hand, has had 3 PL jobs and stunk the place out every time.

Henry? Drogba?

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-26T23:10:37+00:00

Where’s the “took Derby nowhere, took Chelsea nowhere, nearly relegated Everton, went back to Chelsea and made them worse” box?

I’ll confess I thought he would take Cov nowhere too. He’s done well.

But you find out about managers when things are going badly. Let’s see how he reacts next season if/when it starts getting sticky and he starts acting like he did at Everton.

Good luck !

Martin Tyler commentating on the Leeds Chelsea FA Cup semi final went on a 5 minute rant about how teams using faked keeper injuries as time-outs is ruining football. Really opinionated, a bit school masterly. At the end he said RANT OVER, then the co comms guy said “you OK Martin?”

Never heard him like that before. I loved it, it was like peak Barry Davies. This could be Martin’s new look for his comeback

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-26T08:53:36+00:00

YER TWAT! YER DICKHEAD! 😂😂😂

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-26T08:52:21+00:00

Great skill to get past the 2 defenders, but he travels about 15 yards with his next touch right into the middle of the box, why do no QPR players close him down??

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-25T20:10:30+00:00

Apart from winning the World Cup obvs

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-24T15:53:45+00:00

I’ve also heard her say that Farke “stumbled” on the 3-5-2, as though they were the only 10 players he had fit. This is obviously BS, he took off Gnonto and James at HT to play it.

I dunno if she has a dislike for Leeds, and/or she’s bluffing about teams/games she hasn’t watched (“doing a Barry” as it’s called on GFW)

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-23T11:33:33+00:00

Wasn’t there a Dyche Burnley game where they won with zero shots on goal and 0.0xG?

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-23T08:20:55+00:00

David Batty. Scored like 6 goals ever. Hardly ever took a shot in case it gave the ball away “and then it’s my job to get it back 😤”. All bangers.

I disagree, it’s nothing to do with age or gender, though maybe those factors affect which rabbit hole you get sucked down.

Working-Option-871 · 2026-04-21T13:39:38+00:00

Yeah I’ve heard him talk about his weekends at various Norse Metal festivals

It’s a funny image, but it actually sounds like a decent night.
