Looks like they want to win the booking Count.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Deliberate yellow card. They want to finish second. They are smarter than us.

You mean like Coventry v Morecambe?

 

[wingy]

Getting no players around or in the box, that is when we do get there.

 

[wingy]

7 of theirs forward on that last move .

 

[Paul Anthony]

Certainly doesn't feel like watching a World Cup game.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Belgium 2 up in the yellow card stakes.

 

[Deleted member 4439]

They really do seem to be after cards? So uneccesary otherwise? Maybe the plan is try to win but no lost glory being on equal points so may as well tske a prize?

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Of course they are doing it on purpose. They want to finish second.

They are smarter than us. We will get Brazil in the quarters and lose and everyone will then finally realise that we should have done the same thing as Belgium as we watch them beat Switzerland and tie up a semi-final match.

Engerland, and we still only have shots of the Belgium fans!

I usually don't mind cautious, but that was snoozfestivally dull.

I don't like Vardy playing. It changes our gameplay and we are forever trying to hit it long.

Think Rose has done well, mind. Rashford looking busy too.

So you're saying we should go out there in a world cup game and throw the match?

Most interesting thing so far has been Ian Wright's shirt.

Yep. Rose best player so far. Should start the next game over Young.

Be interesting to see if we DO score whether Belgium will then go all out for an equaliser or not.

Not throw it but not desperate to win

We lack a decent link to vardy, both of them keep going wide to get balls.

Losing 5-2 on yellows

Losing 5-2 on yellows

What happens if there is a straight red? How does that change things? Does it count as the equivilent of two yellows, or does it go number of red cards, then number of yellow?

Am guessing it's the latter, which makes me think someone could try to deliberately get sent off very late on.

A straight red is a 4.

Someone get on the Sunderland forum and see how they feel about this

Still got Vardy decking courtois with right hook in 90th minute to receive straight red

It's the only way he's likely to have an impact on the game.

 

[clint van damme]

despite not wanting to win they've had the best chances.

 

[wingy]

It's a phsychologists Nightmare, get the bookings to help take second, check.
Don't score a goal, check,but only just.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Won't need any bokings now...

 

[Otis]

Poor defending there.

So, Belgium don't want to win? Is that correct?

 

[Deleted member 4439]

Well they look happy enough to win

 

[lifeskyblue]

Beautiful goal. Been the better side in all honesty.
