  • It’s really time to realise that Neville and Carragher are not “experts” but simply two popular “football commentators” who know exactly how limited their analysis are. Thousands could do their job. What they have is a rich background in playing the game (meh) and that’s why they are there. They are also highly replaceable and they know it and are shit scared of being found past it, boring, or god forbid, cancelled. So they suck the party line hook, like and sinker. What would they do if they got sacked, honestly? They can’t coach. Go on talk sport? They know this is it and they got it made, they’d rather go out to Qatar (oops) and kiss the ring than make a statement and lose their jobs.

    I don’t mean this to shit on them, if you enjoy them that’s fine. But realise, hundreds of footballers retire every year and there are few jobs to be had. These two got the best ones out there but could be replaced with little annoyance in a minute if needed. They know it and are not about to put their jobs that they’ve worked hard to get on the line for anyone or anything.













  • Used to like it but I just can’t take their absolute adoration of referees and every single shit decision they inadvertently will defend. They actually blamed arsenal for getting Mason fired and after Newcastle the vitriol they had against Arteta… I just deleted it. Which is too bad because apart the referee nonsense they are a decent podcast but they talk about it as if the check was in the mail every single week.




  • Yeah well what you „would rather” doesn’t make a good decision. So we now have refs who don’t make decisions because of VAR and VAR that doesn’t want to overturn decisions because of “clear and obvious” (ie friends). The whole sequence of events at Newcastle in that one play is enough to disband VAR all and together, that’s how bad it is.

    At what point did we come to “it’s subjective not a clear and obvious error” of Gabriel being pushed to simply looking at it on a replay and seeing Gabriel being pushed? Tear it all down.
