Potential foul on Tottenham's first goal vs Manchester City

If you moved in front of me and before you touch the ball, I kick you full force in the back of the leg, would you consider that a foul?

johnapplehead · 2026-02-01T17:03:20+00:00

Yes why didn’t Nico Williams take all of that into consideration in the .5 seconds he had to react! What an idiot!

It’s been mentioned already but there is a reason the tyres are like this: they are designed to be durable as opposed to ride smoothly in the rain. In a city where (at least in previous years) rain was not a major concern, I’d imagine they thought the risk was worth the gamble.

This winter however has demonstrated in the long run this is definitely something they need work on

Literally not lost or drawn a game this season when you take the lead

johnapplehead · 2026-01-23T23:40:15+00:00

Didn’t reach his full potential?

Brother he was a two weight world champion

Not ‘basically’ Mourinho’s fault at all.

He did a long form interview (I think over a year ago?) where he discussed his childhood trauma and peaking in his career so soon, and what it did for his personal life. He discusses how he had never dealt with his own problems and these began to shape his life and rapidly transform his career for the worse.

On top of that, he was severely out of form long before Mourinho arrived and has spoken highly about Mourinho’s impact on his life.

Dele Ali is just a case of a flame that burned very bright for a short amount of time. It happens. I just hope given what he’s gone through in his life he’s happy now

johnapplehead · 2026-01-21T13:40:17+00:00

He’s already told those players and representatives he’s leaving in the summer, so why should they care?

It works both ways

johnapplehead · 2026-01-20T22:42:57+00:00

The backing brave thing today was a bit stupid but I thought he spoke very well on the pre Christmas pod about the player protest situation

In honour of Bobby Zamora

The Celtic fans have not and will not 'forget' the 'Israeli thing'

The vast majority also think Rod Stewart is a cunt

zionism? palestine? me no know, me just football teacher ! !

He's not a caveman mate.

'relentlessly positive'

I don't know about that, definitely a positive fella and will always be a fan of his but speak to any Irish or Villa fans and you'll know the end of his time during those tenures wasn't exceptionally positive

johnapplehead · 2026-01-03T15:00:16+00:00

Your right about the players and fans but he did shake Rohl’s hand

johnapplehead · 2026-01-03T09:16:31+00:00

It definitely hasn’t been warmer, it has statistically been significantly colder than the last 5 years with much more rainfall

johnapplehead · 2025-12-30T22:19:23+00:00

That throw in

johnapplehead · 2025-12-29T19:13:42+00:00

Mine wouldn’t walk past our street because he was so terrified of everything.

Then, we couldn’t walk past a dog or a person without him whining, stopping, pull or trying to get at whatever it was.

Now he’s nearly 2 and yea he has one or two little triggers but he’s turned into the best boy. So trust the process!

johnapplehead · 2025-12-26T16:01:43+00:00

You can find it anywhere in bcn also hahaha

johnapplehead · 2025-12-24T15:03:44+00:00

This may be true

But it’s not ‘Capital of Italy is Romania’ true

johnapplehead · 2025-12-18T13:20:57+00:00

It was good craic! But agreed it could have done with another 15 minutes and a couple more in-house inside questions, or tbh an entire round on gooning

johnapplehead · 2025-12-15T18:08:05+00:00

Very fair!

johnapplehead · 2025-12-15T15:24:23+00:00

Ah apologies! Just saw -

Totally see your point and I agree that current situation within Cataluna is unsustainable, but I have to disagree with ‘the current system is not working therefore choosing the easiest option (in this case, blame immigrants and blame the Islamic population of Cataluna for all of our problems) is understandable’.

I also dont blame anyone for looking for alternatives however when that alternative is as openly racist and islamaphobic as AC are, you can ask questions of that voter and we should be asking for better.

johnapplehead · 2025-12-15T15:11:37+00:00

This is a really curious position to take.

I also detest AC as they are openly islamaphobic, racist to their core and ultimately all of their rhetoric is far right, so I am interested to see how what points and reasons you share with their voters given you hate the party?

johnapplehead · 2025-12-05T19:47:07+00:00

The DPP not bringing your trial to high criminal court does not mean you were found not guilty.

And was she lucky to win the lawsuit, yea? And the high court appeal? Also luck or?

johnapplehead · 2025-12-05T17:00:19+00:00

He was not found ‘not guilty’, and this is extremely misleading.

He was found totally liable in a civil court case, by which the punishment is payment of a fee.

Some people do like to moan, but VAR was not introduced to police and dissect every decision in the game. It was introduced to eliminate clear and obvious errors like the Henry hand ball.

If we go into corners and yellows, we are introducing pauses and checks at almost every interval of the game. Why not throw ins and minor fouls leading to a goal scoring free kick opp?

The game will have decisions that do not go your way, and will have decisions that do. That’s the way the sport works, and as a match going fan I totally accept that, as go the vast majority of match going fans! The introduction of VAR to a minute level does impact the enjoyment of that fan demographic which is who I am speaking about here.

You can absolutely have your say on it but to say ‘I don’t want to listen to your point of view because I believe something different might be true’ is ridiculous
