Today’s Games 2023-2024

[JadeWolf]

Yes, Arsenal v Liverpool should be a good tie, even if it's Goliath v Goliath, but no telling what sort of teams they'll put out.

Absolutely, Arsenal v Liverpool sounds great but if it’s Arsenal reserves v Liverpool reserves, not so much.

 

[Chisels_n_ommers]

Both Everton and Palace with strong line ups.

It figures - there's been approx a weeks break to this fixture and winter break ahead with reduced fixtures in Jan.

Apart from giving one or two fringe players a go (for morale or for Afcon/Asia cup absences) there's no reason why we and any other prem club should not go strong in these third round cup games this season, given the fixture list.

What were Sunderland thinking?

Sunderland owner 'disgusted' by Newcastle slogans

Sunderland owner Kyril Louis-Dreyfus says he was "disgusted" after a bar at the Stadium of Light was redecorated with Newcastle slogans.

Almost Moxeyish.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

30 minutes in and Crystal Palace v Everton isn’t exactly edge of the seats football.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

That first half won’t live long in the memory.

 

[Chisels_n_ommers]

That first half won’t live long in the memory.

Which first half?

 

[lets all have a disco]

The magic of the cup....

 

[Jack Russell]

30 minutes in and Crystal Palace v Everton isn’t exactly edge of the seats football.

Quite so Frank. Let's hope the second half is better. I can't imagine that either side wants a replay.

 

[RosehillWolf]

That first half won’t live long in the memory.

I’m thinking this is what our game will be like tomorrow. No one really gives a **** as priority is staying up

 

[RosehillWolf]

Christ this game is ****

 

[Mr Dougan's Elbow]

The game has been poor and the idiot drumming utterly infuriating. Have turned it off

 

[Mancwolf56]

Christ this game is ****

Not even that good

 

[A wanderer from Bristol]

Christ this game is ****

Two very poor teams on this showing

 

[Royal wolf]

Awful decision

 

[S G Wolves]

I don't think that was a red.

 

[Henry Palfrey]

Red card? Really?

 

[Hsvwolf]

How is that a red card ….. VAR madness

 

[manchesterwolf17]

Salisbury on VAR is it. What a shock

Pathetic beyond words. Clyne knew as well that if he writhed about that they'd examine it. If he gets straight up they don't even look at the tackle.

 

[WWFC4EVA]

Never a red!!!
Game's ****ed!!!

 

[Chisels_n_ommers]

Games gone

 

[Netherton Wolf]

Think he had that red for what it could of done rather than what it did, his studs were high

 

[Glow69]

Wtf is that var music that comes on with the voice when it's getting checked

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

What imbecile is on VAR

 

[Southdownswolf]

Problem is that his foot was high, and he got the player before the ball. I think every ref will give that as red once they've seen it back.

 

[JadeWolf]

Terrible play acting again to get an opponent sent off.

 

[Wulve5]

Games gone .

 

[Royal wolf]

Terrible play acting again to get an opponent sent off.

Literally scraped his shin pad

 

[Perton Wolf]

Ridiculous decision, nowhere near enough force in the challenge to warrant a red card.

 

[Erick1011]

Honestly, not that I thought they would've scraped a result but DCL will now miss:

vs Aston Villa (H)
vs Fulham (A)
vs Tottenham (H)

 

[A wanderer from Bristol]

Crazy decision. I mean, you are allowed to lift your foot off the floor when you are sliding and trying to stretch for the ball as DCL was doing. He barely touched the other player, and there was no force or recklessness as far as i could see.

Hard to fathom

 

[A wanderer from Bristol]

Honestly, not that I they would've scraped a result but DCL will now miss:

vs Aston Villa (H)
vs Fulham (A)
vs Tottenham (H)

Could be a big problem for Everton

 

[manchesterwolf17]

Just as you see with players flying down in the box when there's a bit of contact. That's another perfect capture of how VAR encourages cheating because there's no downside to it. Often you'll get the decision/benefit you want as they're terrified of missing something, and if you don't so what? You don't lose anything.

Clyne was completely fine. But he knew if he writhed around that VAR would try and find the mistake in it. It's pathetic.

 

[Watfordfc]

Trust VAR to create some controversy!

Wouldn’t be surprised if Everton appealed and won .

 

[Monketron]

While his foot was high I didn't think there was much force behind that tackle. Little harsh.

 

[S G Wolves]

Honestly, not that I they would've scraped a result but DCL will now miss:

vs Aston Villa (H)
vs Fulham (A)
vs Tottenham (H)

Unless the card is rightly rescinded.

 

[RosehillWolf]

I was hoping they were going to take time off. Not add 9 on ffs

 

[A wanderer from Bristol]

Injury to McNeil could spell even bigger trouble for Everton. Looks serious. Hope he's ok

 

[Southdownswolf]

I was hoping they were going to take time off. Not add 9 on ffs

Don't worry, there's going to be another 90 minutes to watch in a couple of weeks time

 

[JadeWolf]

Would ITV even dare putting the replay live on telly too!?

 

[manchesterwolf17]

If that was the first football match you ever watched, you'd turn to something else. Beyond **** that
