That performance last night - particularly Pickford's - really helped my fantasy footy score for the week.

62pts isn't close to my best weekly score yet, but it's much better than it was looking like it was gonna be, over the weekend πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

Especially considering THAT start to the game, that is an absolutely bloody fantastic result.

Pickford immense, obviously - but they all stepped up and got the job done. Brilliant.

So they can push and pull Myko all over the place, can they? That's allowed? πŸ€”

Just keep playing the same as we did in the first half, rather than just sitting back and trying to defend the lead, please and thank you πŸ™

Start the game quite well.

Then one player goes off injured.

Then another gets sent off for THAT.

Was stupid, don't get me wrong. But a red?

How exactly is that a red card???

Most egregious of all - The Waterboy, in the top 50?

The top 50 comedy movies? OF ALL TIME???

Not sure it would make my top 50 Adam Sandler films πŸ˜†

So, having not managed to get tickets to the actual Oasis tour, tonight I went to see an Oasis tribute act (Definitely Mightbe) instead.

You know what? They were actually really good, had a great night πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈπŸ€˜πŸŽΈ

He absolutely does deserve more credit.

Pretty sure this isn't it.

So, having made the very brave decision that I was actually prepared to set foot in The Bad Place, just this once, to see Foo Fighters, this morning I completely failed to get tickets... 😒

The Running Man appears to be getting mixed reviews then - so far, I've seen one very positive ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ review (Empire), one pretty damn negative ⭐️⭐️ review (Independent) and two kinda middling reviews... πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

The only thing that will make me feel better about this is a swift announcement of Green Day dates at the Hill Dickinson.

So the Foos are playing in Liverpool next year, which is nice.

Shame they picked the wrong stadium though.

Not quite my worst fantasy footy weekend yet (that was 2 weeks ago), but only beat it by 2pts...

Yet my best week yet was sandwiched in between πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

Both Haaland and Semenyo losing me fantasy footy points for missing a penalty in one day, is it? πŸ˜’

After my best week of fantasy footy yet last week, this week has been absolutely bloody shocking so far.

Pretty much reliant on Haaland demolishing the reds for this week's score not to be embarrassingly bad πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

They were disallowed by the linesman rather than VAR, weren't they? I know VAR didn't change the decision (and any checks they did were over much more quickly than most VAR checks I've seen), but disallowing the goals was an "on field decision".

Mad how differently people see the same game. I thought he was excellent.

Disallowing 3 Everton goals is a ref on Everton's side?

Jeez I'd hate to see a ref who's on the other side πŸ˜†πŸ˜†πŸ˜†

Good win, decent performance.

Ball in the net 5 times πŸ˜±πŸ˜†

Would've been nice if more than 2 of them had counted, but even so.

Never really looked like conceding (finally some clean sheet points for the fantasy footy πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ).

Preferably more than once πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ
