Carlton Cole made to grovel because he said “a holocaust” on 5 live Surely this word existed before The Holocaust. Probably get piled on but does that require an apology.

If he used it referring to something that happened in football then yes. Over the top hyperbole.

But football is full of hyperbole. Surely it is the context. If he had said “The Holocaust” I would completely agree

What a gracious man, good luck to him. He's best off trying to manage an actual football team not a PLC with a portfolio of investments described as players.

That job has proper aged him!

Newcastle tonight, and a number of PL games tomorrow kicking off at 7.30. This used to be a regular ko time a few years back, but I'm pretty sure that 7.45 has become the 'usual' ko time (I know some are at 8pm) Anybody know the reason for the change?

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

That’s when Amazon are showing the games, the kick off times are staggered to watch the first/second half, 7:30 and 8:15

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

The earlier should start a bit earlier for us armchair fans so we can watch a couple.

Newcastle look to be going 1 way .. down

Probably - but it'll only be for one season, assuming it happens.

Probably softens the blow when you know you're going to absolutely crush the league next season.

The irony of the "richest club in the world" receiving parachute payments too

Why oh why oh why are Everton leaving Goodison?

Watford v Chelsea, still suspended

 

[Nick]

Awful although the good thing is the number of medical staff nearby to help

Sounds like the Chelsea medical team went into the stand, the Watford medical team were dealing with an injured player

Another cardiac arrest, had far too many this season already.

I don't mean to be insensitive but I don't really understand why they stop a game for a fans medical issue....they don't stop the movie or close the shops if someone gets ill in a different public setting do they? It's a very modern phenomenon isn't it? ....or am I way off the mark here?

Well it seems to distress the players knowing it's going on during play

OK...something I hadn't considered....

I do actually get what you mean, but having stood outside a theatre in the freezing cold until 10pm (left my coat and car keys inside - fatal error!) while they dealt with someone who'd had a heart attack in the row in front of me, I can safely say they do stop such things if someone gets ill in a public setting!

Everton are a fucking shambles. Fans leaving already FFS. I've got Liverpool less than 2.5 in my accumulator, I think I can kiss that goodbye!

Their fans leaving on 20 minutes makes the match day threads here look like Ed Davey at one of his yoga classes

Andros Townsend taking a dive. It staggers me, all the video assistance the officials gets and he complains that he didn’t get the FK.

Southampton game delayed now because of a medical emergency in the crowd.

I think it’s better to do this. It really doesn’t surprise me

It was, they delayed the second half kicking off.
