I really enjoyed watching that game today. Too many obvious things to mention. I've got a suggestion that I think most football fans would agree with that should be adopted in football. City player goes down today with an 'injury'* but is not fouled, in the refs opinion. It's not a serious 'injury' after the ball is kicked out, as he doesn't require treatment. Meanwhile the team with the ball are in effect punished as they feel obliged to put the ball out of play. They get the ball back but have to start from the back.


In rugby if someone is injured the player can be attended to by the medical staff while play continues. Surely if this were adopted in football we would have less of the feigning of injury that we have now. It seems players do it so the ball is put out of play, as a tactic. Hard to prove of course.


*The point of the asterisk is to say that when it it obvious that a serious injury has occured then I would expect most decent human beings to put the ball out of play if only to highlight how serious it is and get attention to the player as quickly as possible.

Brilliant game nevertheless. We were seated behind the correct goal in order to get a prime view of all 5 goals. FABULOUS! Quite a few yellow cards TOO, tutt tutt!


As for Anderson, WHAT a breath of fresh air.

As well as telly highlights, I see several newspapers are not permitted entry to grounds because of a dispute between the football governing bodies and the media groups. So journalists are being prevented from reporting on what's in front of them while 60000 fans can tweet/text to their hearts content. Greedy, ridiculous nonsense

Note from Admin:


There seems to have been a bug in the system that merged two discussions together, "Single Guys in ED" and "Football Focus", as Football focus was the largest (by about 250 pages!) this has become the main thread.


Sorry about that.

Any Single guys in ED?

      Going to be really inconvenient for folk to go that way as has been stated.. why not just move to Camberwell which I would assume is abit nearer and better travelling wise or have vets in both places from Lordship Lane Branch.. Must have been massive flood if going to take two months to dry out, electrical tests to make sure all good… From upstairs? Or where?

      Thank you !  We Will find a way to get him to New X because We owe his life to the vets he sees at Lordship Lane branch and they know him (and us) and we prefer the continuity of care because he's an elderly rescue cat who gets extremely anxious even though he's been needing monthly bloods he just never gets used to going and it can be a lengthy process just getting the sample. Can you tell I'm as anxious about the whole thing as he is??😥
