Today’s Games 2023-2024

[AndyWolves]

I said a few weeks back they are a club kept up by two keepers and had very little quality elsewhere.

This article shows why they havent gone after Henderson, they are screwed if true as without a good keeper they will drop
With Luton without a doubt.

Nottingham Forest owe MILLIONS to players and agents

EXCLUSIVE BY MIKE KEEGAN: It can also be disclosed that a number of agents, also owed millions, are now considering legal action, which could potentially see winding up petitions against the club.

Given the source a pinch of salt required....for now anyway

 

[A3wolf]

Anyone watching Sheff Weds Southampton? Interesting seeing Ward Prowse, Alcaraz and Walker Peters start who I thought would all have moved.

Iorfa playing CB too!

 

[Willywolf]

Still don’t like Hi Ho Sheffield Wednesday…

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Great goal by Tella

 

[Willywolf]

Good goal saints.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Southampton 1 up, not a bad goal.

 

[Willywolf]

Looks like two poor teams to me though. Glad we survived last season.

 

[SuperGran]

Championship is going to be tough this season

 

[Wonder Boyo]

Southampton 1 up, not a bad goal.

Excellent goal. Was a bit of pinball in the Southampton penalty area a bit before but otherwise the Saints have been in control. They've managed to keep some good players and should do well in this league if they keep them when the window shuts.

Surprised you're watching this Frank. Thought you'd be watching The Hundred on the other side?

 

[WolvesAndCows]

Saints will be right up there if they can keep these players.

 

[JamesWolves]

Russell Martin is a very good manager

I had to tear myself away from it…

One way traffic here. Are Southampton good, or Wednesday poor.

Bit of both I think. These two teams were two divisions apart last season and it's showing at the moment. Games can change quickly though.

 

[TheConcourse]

Do they sell lube in Sheffield?

 

[A3wolf]

Also Southampton with Che Adams on the bench.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Two players shown yellow for kicking the ball away. Good, it is time this was clamped down on.

Hopefully is maintained particularly with the big name players and teams .

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Six minutes added on.

 

[WWFC4EVA]

I'll be amazed if this finishes 11 v 11 at the rate the yellow cards are being handed out!

 

[Wonder Boyo]

They just explained that stadium clocks will show the extra time ticking by this season rather than just stopping at 45 mins and 90 mins.

 

[Ewok vs Wolf]

The added on time seemed a bit excessive there

Looks like the refs are clamping down on things. Gustentee Wolves will be the first team to see a red card for something like kicking the ball away at Old Trafford

Rule changes for new football season

Some good news. Rule changes for this season look promising, particularly the one around time wasting and added on time. These new rules, which will be applied across the Premier League and the EFL, are being widely reported in the press today ahead of the start of the EFL season tonight. It's...

[Watfordfc]

The added on time seemed a bit excessive there

I guess they will hope the time wasting stops and less time has to be added on event like in the World Cup but there didn’t seem to be much in that half as Southampton were so dominate so agree did seem OTT.

And you will get teams , managers etc saying why wasn’t there more in their game compared to another .

I mean what is going to decide if there is 8 or 10 minutes as an example ?

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Sheffield Wednesday level, totally against the run of play.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

How long will it be until a defender gets smashed by a striker and needs treatment, has to go off and stay off for 30 seconds, during which time the striker scores?

 

[NavyWolf]

Che Adams

 

[The Clock]

Adams scores , predictably

 

[WalsallWolf]

Instant impact with an unspectacular but clever centre forward play to be in that position to finish

I'd have him at the Wolves, no problem at all.

 

[SuperGran]

Be a great option off the bench tbh

 

[Brizzlewolf]

Good finish.....steered it into the far corner

 

[Nige100]

Judging by time added on in both halves there will be a lot of people missing the end of games or trains home this season.

 

[Watfordfc]

Good finish.....steered it into the far corner

Che Adams will probably do well in this league.

89th minute will be like the 79th now

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

Must admit I didn't really notice anything, but it makes me laugh that they find 9 minutes to add (ie 20%). But then blow up bang on 9.00 min. Wonder when they'll start putting a second board up at the end of the initial added time?!

 

[Baboon]

Saints looked like Man City with the way they kept the ball during the added nine minutes. Should do well this season if their squad remains strong by the date the window closes. Has to be said that Wednesday didn't offer too much though.

In the men's World Cup and now the women's World Cup, added time has gone mental. Adding on 10 plus minutes and then players time wasting within added time so games are playing past 15 minutes of extra time. Soon there will be boards up for added time in added time (and then maybe again for the added time after the added time of added time). Where will it all end?!

Stopping the clock for all qualifying stoppages seems the simplest thing to do, but hey ho!

 

[Watfordfc]

The trouble will be when someone scores a vital goal in the 101st minute .

The other team will go mad

The game of football is supposed to be played across 90 minutes. Theoretically there's no such thing as added time, only the allotted playing time.
If they stopped the clock for stoppages, all goals would be scored within the 90 minute game time.
That makes way too much sense for the FA and PL though.

 

[SingYourHeartsOut]

There's the strange convention that they don't blow up when there's an attack, which will confuse the situation when they (correctly) show the added time on the stadium clock.

As it's a minimum amount of added time, there shouldn't be any confusion if it runs on.
