Horrible result for Sun & Moon, and all people who want bad things for Jose :facepalm:

 

Throw in an Arsenal win at Leeds, and a truly hideous effort from England in the Ashes. Bullrun Bingham to fluke past Ronnie this evening?

 

Then a fully rested but virus-recovering, not battle-ready Spurs host everso-slightly in form Liverpool to round things up tomorrow. Surely someone can spread some more Covid, to spare me more anguish? :eyeroll:

Will O'Sullivan take revenge for the cricket catastrophe? :popcorn:

He showed some ticker this afternoon to be 4-4, when it could have been 8-0 to Robertson.

 

I can`t say that I was as keen on the Spurs game as the commentators. I guess you view it differently when it`s your own team missing glorious chances, playing with gaping holes in midfield, not getting sent off etc.

Didn't Spurs get shafted around the 70th minute mark? Push in the back in the box, Salah's handball...

I think Kane not getting sent off and Spurs missing those gilt-edged chances on the break balances out any shafting :eyeroll:

You must have different rules in PL, because in Ekstraklasa after that handball, Salah would have heard the referee's whistle...if he would dare to do it against the best player in the world, that is.

The goal came from the next phase of play, and whilst it did initially hit Salah`s arm, I think the ruling is that Spurs are allowed to try and stop the cross and then the header, rather than leaving a big gap by all running away.

No VAR in darts, however. "The Bronzed Adonis" takes care of business. :chickendance:

A very Grey Adonis these days. And VAR`s not needed in Snooker, as Ronnie finds form for half an hour which proved plenty of time to TCOB :notworthy:

Definitely not. Even if England were granted a reprieve - via a biblical rainstorm from benevolent-feeling weather gods (the only way out would be something out of their hands) - the team would fall over and drown in a puddle on the way out of the ground. They are a right dogs breakfast at the moment. They remind me of Spurs under Nuno, when you watch and think, "Holy Buckets, what are you doing?" :facepalm:
