It's rare these days I watch much other than stoke, but it feels watching this that football between the two best teams in the country in 2023 looks more like a la liga game than something like an arsenal v man utd clash from 20 years ago. It's incredibly technical rather than the physical/mental warfare that the top level used to be. I don't think it's a complement.
Edit: huge goal for bumholes

Result could have been different if Pep had played Haarland.

I think Pep has destroyed our game. All of this keep-ball nonsense. It's all right if you've got top players, but it's spread itself across all of our football, to the extent that most of the games are boring. There's no incentive to attack. Keep the ball for 90 minutes, & go home with a point!

What a game of football I've watched tonight, Radcliffe 4 Macclesfield Town 3 top of the table clash. The quality was excellent and better than a lot of Championship games I've seen. Genuinely every time I watch Radcliffe I comment on how slick their passing is compared to us, we seem to struggle to find a player in red and white more often than not.
Macc 3 up after 20 mins, Radcliffe 4-3 up after 60 odd minutes. Not sure what the crowd was but I imagine around 1,500.
Non-league football is ace..............
EDIT 1,705 in attendance.

Wish I had some time to go to these games

Good win for the Potterettes last night at Derby. Up to 3rd but lots of clubs have games in hand: www.stokecityfc.com/Matches/women?view=tableI assume Newcastle will walk the league, fully professional and loads of filthy lucre to chuck at the team. Pity as we have started quite well (but then we are semi-pro and I guess others are fully amateur). Our next match is home to league leaders Burnley, on 22 October at 14:00. Will be a useful gauge of our progress as Burnley are doing well.

The goal Scotland had disallowed was perfectly fine. Couldn’t have a big country not qualifying while Norway and Scotland do. Terrible decision

Originally VAR disallowed it for a foul then later changed their mind and said it was offside- can't see how it was either

I, for one, will be calling for Scotland's expulsion from Euros 24 and 28. It's only fair.

Are we saying that if a player marks the goalkeeper for a corner, or free kick, that is a foul?

Are we saying that if a player marks the goalkeeper for a corner, or free kick, that is a foul? Obviously I'm biased but it's fundamentally worse because Var over ruled the ref and after reviewing the footage signals for a foul (not offside) Ten minutes later Var is over ruled and the goal is instead over ruled for offside according to uefa.

This is about 100 x more of an injustice than the one Klopp has been banging on about, at least they didn't change their mind about why they disallowed it when they realised they had all made the wrong decisions!
