Re: What are you Watching Today Part 2

Also enjoyed White Lotus s3 a lot, although not as much as s1 and s2 - which are equally good.

Sam Rockwell's monologue mid-season was extraordinary.

Re: Dan Kemp

I didn’t much rate Kemp with the Os but saw him 6 or 7 times for Swindon and he was brilliant. He was recalled from that loan in January but still won the Swindon PotS

I had not spotted that. Got to admire his range.

Re: George Moncur gone

I watched him play for Ebbsfleet today. Nice touch, didn’t stand out. Scored an excellent free kick. Subbed after 70 mins.

After scoring he ran around showing his belly to the opposition (Aldershot) fans, an odd one as they had a midfielder at least one shirt size larger than Moncur.

Re: Crowd last night

I went last night but didn’t have access to a Man City ticket.

Was the away attendance given as 551? It looked half that at most.

I emailed a similar question to the club on Sunday but haven't received a reply. Its pretty difficult allocating tickets on some devices.

Would love an explanation of how Beckles was offside with an Oldham player on the touchline wide of goal.

And the Oldham goal undoubtedly doesn’t touch their forward.

Doubtful. Reduced prices for less attractive matches are standard practice.

Re: Womens team under new ownership?

It's a fact that 75% of Women's Super League fans are "new fans" i.e. don't attend the respective men's team's matches. Which is fine, and will probably increase. With Chelsea, Arsenal, Tottenham, Crystal Palace and West Ham all in the 12 team WSL I rather feel the London market is already...

The opposition to a regulator comes from the oligarch and billionaire owner...

It was the worst VAR penalty decision I've seen. Kicks ball, connects with defender on follow through, throws himself to the floor.
