      I mean, it’s not a lucky break, Raya gets the ball if he isn’t fouled, it’s just the refs doing something right for once

        I mean “lucky” in the sense that how many times have ridiculously unfair decisions gone against us? Yeah, is absurd what can be considered ‘lucky’ is this. But it’s where we are.

      genuinely this is the thing that pisses me off the most about the sport and has made me want to stop watching it entirely, we get fouled more than most teams and have historically gotten fucked by refs to a statistically significant degree and have had to deal with the likes of Stoke and Manchester’s bastard teams yet we’re the ones called cheats

        We’re Schrodinger’s Club. We’re both whiny diving ‘Southern pansies’, and at the same time we’re dirty thugs who are always doing red card worthy offenses.

        Obviously those paradoxical descriptions make no sense. And you’d expect anyone with two braincells to rub together to realize that. But too many fans (especially of clubs like Stoke) are thick as pig shit. And the rest realize it but just like antagonizing us with that chant.

    Quietly, it’s been feeling like Benny Blanco is getting back to his old self. It’s good to see.

    I know it’s their thing and it doesn’t really matter but surely the refs should’ve let the bubbles clear off before they started playing the game lol
