If you haven't thoroughly enjoyed that this silly old game might not be for you.
I gave mine up when we moved to Oz in 2004. That was hard.
We got all Prem games on Fox, so I'd be up in the wee hours watching us, and it was awful. You can't get the emotional release you get at the ground, because you'd wake the entire family up! So you have all that adrenaline build up, but absolutely no way you can let it out, unless you jump in the car, drive down the road, then scream your lungs out!
It's taken me a couple of beers to get there.
I thought I was being so Mediterranean with a genteel sipping of a cheap but very quaffable tinto during the game.
Boy, was I wrong.
Buenas noches
Including ourselves
A good way to separate the wheat from the chaff on here anyway.
Great! I’ll take that down.
So did Man U.... Their keeper had a few point blank saves and one of their CBs nearly scored a sweet OG.
We we did attack in the first half they looked useless and before our 2nd half gifts they were ready to fold badly.

They did well to be fair yes. Both good blocks on his shot. When I saw the cutbacks in real time though I was expecting both to find a corner, he hit both down the middle basically. Each time one defender stood their ground but if either are close to the corner it’s in.
I still think there is a happy medium between this Aussie Ardiles ridiculousness and grinding out 1-0's that could happen with the right man at the helm...and even if we do somehow win this Cup, I don't believe Ange is that man.
We play the system/philosophy (I fucking despise that term in football) above the players' individual strengths under Ange IMO and I think we're a poorer side for it.
In recent times, the best for this was Redknapp by a mile for me...Angeball is draining my passion and my patience tbh.

Can I put yours on it instead.

I can offer you an overpriced studio flat that I don’t even own.
"The Carabao Cup semi-final ties will take place over two legs across the week commencing January 6 and the week beginning February 3."
Some or most of the injured players listed should be fit for the semifinals, especially the 2nd leg.
I already have. You can ask
Deuterz
if you can put his on if he's not gonna though.
Hopefully some new players through the door in Jan
