    You can all thank me.
    Why?
    I am the Fantasy Football curse.
    Every single player I transfer in goes to shit.
    Every single player I transfer out turns into Pele.
    I put CHO in after the Spurs game. He did fuck all. I took him out after Tuesday. 2 goals. Wooty bastard woot.

    This Ryan Reynolds stuff is getting embarrassing for TNT now. For fuck sake.

    It’s like we are playing with no centre backs.

    Outside of the general shitness of the performance, that's one of the best goals I've seen us score in, like, ever. Outrageous skill.

    That’s a delightful goal though.. one of those that makes it all look so easy you wonder why every game doesn’t have 20 goals.

    With an og and an assist you could make an good case for one of ours playing for them.

    I’m just amazed some on here thought Morato was ok not so long back. You’ll struggle to find a worse CB in the PL. and he’s not even Championship standard. He nearly won it for them there.

    Stuff it. Stick Murillo on for Morato for extra time.

    Meanwhile I've just apologised to Mrs Rave for putting her through this, even though I had warned her we were playing tonight.
    We could've been watching Would I Lie To You. And the new series of Father Brown. And Patience on demand.

    It's about time someone on here started talking like a football fan rather than an accountant.

    Gold star for Rave.

    As absolutely delightful as CHOs goal was, and taking nothing away from a fantastic finish am I wrong in finding Savona’s cross pretty good, too? Weighted well, drops right over the defender. Or is that more on the defense?

    I'd told Mrs BW and Little Miss BW that we could watch Traitors together on catch-up. They're now sitting here watching stuff with phones and headphones while I watch the side I've supported for nearly 40 years look mostly shit.

    There just aren’t many players as good as CHO.

    I'm going for a Taiwo redemption arc. Next goal 11-2.

    Redemption arcs can curve downwards as well as upwards. Terms and conditions apply.

    Corner. Free header. Wide. Phew.
    Our go forward appears to have ceased somewhat since Taiwo came on...

    No children are suffering at my end. Only 2 cats. And my liver.
