United got 2 free kicks for Gyokeres standing in front of the keeper when he went to play quickly - Iβve never seen that given as a free kick before.
Is this part of the new rule about the keeper having 8 seconds to release it, and wonβt this slow the game down rather than speed it up as intended?

I won tickets to a womenβs World Cup final screening with free food and drink, and watched a World Cup game with Ray Parlour, with free food and drink (and got a free shirt) out of my Arsenal rewards. I reckon Iβve had my moneyβs worth, but all only really available to local fans.

They are the first adults in Wales to have never known a smoke-filled bar or club. To have lived their whole lives unaccustomed to the smell of cigarettes lingering on clothes after a night out.
It is 18 years since the ban on smoking in public places was introduced in Wales to reduce the effect of second-hand smoke.
Not wholly convinced by this but maybe Iβm just not appreciating how early Welsh children start going to the pub. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I donβt think the system really suits Martinelli, and his best performances often seem to come in spite of how we play. I think heβs been written off by parts of them fan base, but when we needed a bit of a spark tonight, he gave us it.

But when price is the stick, as it always is when thereβs pressure on supply, only the poor pay it.
No point asking a polling question that says βwould you cut back your meat intake by 50%β if in the real world cutting down production by 50% leads to price hikes that mean you canβt afford any.

They can drink outside the ground up to kick off and they can drink right after full time. The debate is whether or not fans should be allowed to have one pint in the 15 minute half time break (ten minutes queueing!).
How does one pint in 2 hours impact public disorder? Why doesn't it with rugby?

I will listen to that. I'm sceptical they're going to be moaning about how tired they are of Arteta, or suggesting he's some sort of cheerleader for raising morale as opposed to one of the best managers in football, but I will listen - as I do every week - and see.

I think all you can ask of a manager, when there are half a dozen teams spending hundreds of millions of pounds every year to compete for one title, is that we are competitive, consistent and that if the margins go your way you are in a position to win the league. Thatβs where we are.

They won more games than the invincibles last year btw.
But also, football is hard because other teams donβt want to lose either.

We donβt/shouldnβt rely on winning to nil, but other teams have to rely on that because they know that if we score they wonβt score 2. Thatβs why no one attacks us and we struggle to break down teams with 11 behind the ball. If youβd rather go back to basketball games with Emery youβre on your own.

His tactics are the reason we donβt get battered, ever. When we lose itβs always because tiny margins havenβt gone our way. Some more clinical attackers and more creative midfielders will fix that. We are very well set up tactically to compete for trophies.

Heβs done a lot for club morale is quite an understatement - finishing 2nd three seasons in a row is an accomplishment weβve only managed twice before in our history.
Gunnersaurus has done a lot for club morale, Arteta has taken us from europa league to champions league, and from 8th to 2nd.

I think itβs mad to be tired of the coach who renders champions league knockout games dead rubbers by winning 7-1 away from home in the first leg - have you forgotten where we were?
Arteta could pick his next job if he left now. Man City, Real Madrid, PSG, Barcelona, theyβd all be interested.

If it was 1-1 in the first leg I'd like to think it would be difficult to get a ticket, but at least the Butler-Ayedeji family can all be there for his first goal.

Not so bad when we're competitive and people are snapping your hand off for tickets to all but Carabao Cup or European dead rubbers, but if we have a bad spell and demand falls you don't have much leeway there at all.
