Mariner stuff not worthy of a whole thread

[pjennings]

Absolutely great read. I particularly liked the 'M is for Matt Simon' and the 'Nick Montgomery shirt (my wife has been asking me all season why he always wore it)

That's nice, but does he know what it means to be a cold hearted f**king killer doing business?

Later this month

Looks like l assumed wrongly they'd be out by this week. Fixtures were out 28th July last year so thought maybe it'd be same this year. Would like to be able to start organising some trips. I guess maybe as last season started 7th October and this season is due to start 20th October, we should be hearing something in the next couple weeks or so.

Just on this - the council gave CCM $10k and asked them to organise it. $10K barely covers requirements such as portable toilets and all the bits and pieces.
How good's having to organise your own birthday party and pay for most of it!

I know the club won't say anything about it but council shouldn't be claiming too much credit for this

I haven't listened to this yet. Might get a chance tomorrow.

Not Mariners, but I see the English Football League are going to be adding on additional time like in the last Men's World Cup. Would be good if the A league does the same.
Although not having multi balls is absolutely comical. Waiting ages for the opposing fans to chuck the ball back out of the crowd.
A few other changes too. Offside, what is a deliberate play by a defender.

One of the things that most drives me nuts in football is the way refs let defenders get away with holding or shirt pulling at dead balls. If that's supposed to be a red card, how often will it be enforced?

Only when the Mariners do it is my guess.

The Wanderers grub was the worst offender of all last season.

Mrs Allreet has a photo of Mile J being held down by TWO French defenders at a corner in th edying moments of the 2-1 loss in Russia.

Where the f**k was VAR (having already been used to wrongly give France a penalty when Risdon clearly got a toe to the ball before Griesmann flopped over)?
