The Rolling Football Thread: Season 2025/26

"Football is a game of mistakes. Whoever makes the fewest mistakes wins."

Thoughts and prayers for work. Pleased I’m WFH!

I'll join you on the forecourt! Maybe we can burn our bras or something similar to garner more attention (sure our son's wouldn't be in the least bit embarrassed 😂)

My sons would disown me but I think that would be a small price to pay ha ha!

I saw Southgate!
I have to say I predicted Spurs would lose 1-0 Given that would be the usual response to being able to go second and within 2 points of top so was pleased with a draw!

the leagues are fascinating this year no easy matches and the Madrid derby

the matches this afternoon could frankly go anyway and I wouldn’t be surprised! Or maybe a 4-4 draw for Newcastle Arsenal would be but that’s it

Well it was on the BBC gossip page, they are still trying to sell Branthwaite to Man U and Liverpool

Southgate seems more likely than Potter to me

Yes Doctor Tottenham was my first thought when Wolves scored.

Gillingham will be without Gareth Ainsworth for a few weeks as he will be going in for heart surgery. Routine according to reports but he will be missed.

Count me in too!

At this rate, we'll be ripping up our bedsheets and marching round the ground ... Mumsnet's Red and White Army 👍

Well, here we go;

You've got to be fucking kidding me!

Hell hath no fury…!

😂

That 1st half was even worse from Liverpool fan Jarred Gillett than I was expecting.

to be fair VAR overturned it

that said is Darren England so not sure it makes it better

IF Arsenal can overturn this for a win I think it is a huge step in actually winning this year - have the right mentality to use the first half as a means of creating us vs the world - the Man Utd of old

Get in!

And now we have a title race defined by injury time!

and maybe a Champions League spot for spurs!

Good wins over evil.

Yeah whilst I think the right team won I don’t think football is a battle of good vs evil!

It is when you have Voldemort playing in your team.

tbh i didn't watch much of the match but was surprised Joelinton didn't immediately get a 2nd card when he was rude to the ref.

Of course he didn't. He has free reign when he is playing against us.

I thought the same-he is such a twat but not going to let anything ruin my joy at beating newcastle and VAR!!!!

Nice to see Palace do so well this weekend.

Although as a Man U fan I tend to keep my head down these days. Much has to be reset for us, but Amorim is clearly incompetent. Give the kitchen staff Ratcliffe sacked a go I say. Probably not any worse and a bit cheaper.

Good over evil, come on, it's a game of footie 😂

Arsenal fans are a weird bunch

Fuckin mentalists 🙄
