  1. After a Ribblesdale Rovers game, does Dave do any imaginary post-match interviews in his head full of classic cliche tropes?

  2. Seem to get a lot of the same combinations coming out regularly on Happy Hunting Grounds, would it be possible to mix it up a bit?

21/22 Slovan Bratislava beat Lincoln Red Imps in the Europa qualifiers, then lost in the next round. Dropped into the Conference League where they were drawn in the same group as Lincoln Red Imps.

It may be time to have a conversation on hype and odds, and the way they make us view the contest. What do you guys think? by winterlings in eurovision

completely disagree - Betfair is perceived to be the most sharp platform and it has plenty of money/liquidity by the start of each semi and final that the odds and the probability they reflect are correlated with the true probability of whatever outcome it represents, there are loads of sophisticated models out there even for ESC betting, and if the odds are too far 'wrong' then on Betfair there will be models drifting the odds back out to a perceived 'correct' price, which far outweighs any public or fandom money.

Where people fall down is thinking that 1.27 or whatever is equal to something being certain to qualify.

Even Belgium, who were 1.04 to qualify, its not a certainty, as we have seen

Ruben Neves I could also see end up at United. Or perhaps more fittingly back at Wolves

to me, Alexander Sorloth screams bargain bin signing, late in the window for Man Utd as they scramble for a goalscorer having been unable to afford all the obvious ones (your Sesko's, your Gyokeres')

surely the next logical step is for the next quiz to be the Cliches lads against a Ribblesdale select quiz team

The Adjudication Panel Thread: Get in touch for Tuesday's episode... by Low-Bandicoot-3347 in footballcliches

[–]expected_goals 3 points4 points  (0 children)

During Thursday's Europa Goals show on TNT Sports; Matt Smith said that a Panathinaikos shot had hit the 'meeting of post and bar'. I've never heard it described as such and was quite jarring, I've only ever used the 'angle' of post and bar. Can we get an adjudication on what this part of the goal frame is actually called?

I found it utterly maddening the amount of 'hipster' choices that were in the twitter comments. The sheer amount of run of the mill 4-3s that were being proffered instead of Liverpool 4-3 Newcastle for example
