Second yellow, the other was for the handbags with Joey earlier.

Ritchie's hair is straight out of a 90s rom com. Good contribution from Joey there.

At least the studio acknowledged the obvious shirt grabbing when Almiron went down.

If he was wearing all red we'd have a penalty and the defender would have a yellow card.

I mean sure, Almiron went to ground easily but the defender whobwas behind him, had a hand full of his shirt, why does it not even warrant a look?

Must have thought the job was done when he got in the box earlier.

Aye, looks like the players actually want to retain the ball rather than get it forward as soon as possible. Perhaps it's because they've seen what Joelinton offers when they get the ball forward.

What the heck was that from Joelinton?.... he ran a good line, first touch was good... then the... shot? Oh dear.

ASM super dangerous there.

Joey has picked up where he left off.

Steve Bruce's Entertainers (no tm) are back, on the edge of my seat here.

Would it actually be worse for beIN and the Premier League, FIFA etc if KSA are prevented from completing the purchase? Surely that would encourage rather than curb piracy there? If they were to own the club they would at least have their own interest and solid motivation for establishing a legitimate anti-piracy stance, even against their sworn enemies?

Edwards is the CT of hack journalism. The Saudi response to the WTO finding are quite humorous, and tantamount to "We win against those violent savages". "A World Trade Organization (WTO) dispute panel released its report Tuesday ruling against Qatar, and finding that Saudi Arabia’s national security defence was justified under WTO rules. The WTO panel acknowledged that Saudi Arabia “seeks to protect Saudi citizens and the Saudi population, Saudi government institutions, and the territory of Saudi Arabia from the threats of terrorism and extremism” raised by Qatar in the region. The panel also found that Saudi Arabia's comprehensive actions were “taken in time of… other emergency in international relations,” based on extensive evidence presented to the WTO tribunal by Saudi Arabia regarding Qatar's violations of regional agreements and commitments to renounce support for violence and unrest in the region. Saudi Arabia also confirmed to the panel that it provides strong protection of intellectual property rights, including criminal procedures and penalties in cases where credible evidence is available to the Government to support the initiation of proceedings. In addition to accepting Saudi Arabia’s national security defence, the panel rejected Qatar’s remaining claims that Saudi law violated WTO rules, and rejected claims that the Saudi government supported the alleged copyright piracy. Out of six claims by Qatar, the panel’s single finding regarding criminal proceedings was rendered moot in the course of the WTO dispute. Saudi Arabia has a strong record of protecting intellectual property and is committed to applying its national law and procedures in full conformity with WTO rules. The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia will spare no effort to overcome the threats of terrorism and extremism, and Saudi Arabia is pleased that the Panel recognized its sovereign rights in this regard."

Qatar.... home of the most definitely not dodgy or corrupt or shady in any way 2022 World Cup.

And what's this? Breaking news just in, we can confirm that someone may know something.

Let's be frank, Noelie cannot afford for these fuckers to be shitting about wasting time. #OverthelineforNoelie

I understand, but don't wholly agree. Sometimes it's the things that aren't really important that inspire us, bring us joy, and make us who we are. Whilst times like these can drive home the essential visceral realities of being a living organism, they can also show us what we enjoy and hold most dear to ourselves and our identities as sentient beings. Oh wait, wrong thread, this was a response to CTs sky art in the funny pictures thread.

Last Dance was great, I was big into basketball through the 90s so the nostalgia was strong....

Just where will this thrilling discussion take us next....

I had similar thoughts, then realised it could be tradies and the like who don't want to handle/remove the masks prematurely when they will need to put one back on again shortly. Looks fucking ridiculous though.

TBH this reeks of intentionally leaking the news before breaking it officially in order to soften the blow for the haters. As it's largely just self righteous wind bags championing the outrage it will likely work wonders and they'll simply march onwards to their next outrageous cause.

Just has to venmo the funds to Mike and job's done.

Not to pile on, but seriously, at least take a straight photo. Could this be the week that you get the hang of this technology lark? No, it could not.

Day 2? How did you avoid lockdown for so long?

Only needs to go one way because they're never going up.
