McDonald's appealed it and have the EU Trademark. Fuck you Burger King (who now, unrelatedly, have their own lawsuit against their 'whopper' )

Luke Thomas on loan to Sheff Utd.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-66604827 Vile. Utterly vile. It's hard to read, let alone comprehend the actions of these 'men'.

No wonder Man Utd are desperate for a replacement.

Losing track of how many players they're signing now

I don't disagree. But that doesn't really change what we're talking about

It's not ridiculous to get an extra ban for abusing refs when he, as captain, will know the rules are much tighter. You're comparing it to something that happened last year or whenever it was. And that's irrelevant because they're two totally different situations. Referees are clamping down on abuse of officials because it was getting out of hand. Ridiculously so. The right decision was made. Should other similar decisions have been made? Yes perhaps. But inaction doesn't justify action. Van Dijk should know better. And you know that. I agree rules should be covered consistently especially when it comes to abuse of officials. There's no doubt about that.

No, it isn't.

It isn't ridiculous.

Nuno Tavares loan to Forest

He's probably okay in this division, nowhere near strong enough for PL. He just doesn't suit our system and I guess Maresca doesn't think he'll get much game-time. He's a proper traditional left-back and that's what you get. I think he'll get bullied in some games (be it for us or you) and will do well in others.

Apparently Jamaal Lascelles was attacked in a brawl in Newcastle

Game 23 - 20th Game 24 - 18th

GAME 23 - CHELSEA vs AFC WIMBLEDON - WEDNESDAY 30th AUGUST, 19.45 (BST) GAME 24 - PSV vs RANGERS - WEDNESDAY 30th AUGUST, 20.00 (BST) ***any predictions made after kick-off will not count*** @DeadLinesman @Mel81x @Lucas @6666 @Dr. Gonzo @Michael @Redcanuck @Devil @Pugwash @Reluctant Striker @CaaC (John) @Beelzebub @Devil-Dick Willie @JoshBRFC @Viva la FCB @Pyfish @Bluewolf @Tommy @Rucksackfranzose @OrangeKhrush

Two away wins this time round. Solitary goal in Game 21 in the 72nd minute, but this brought about no winners. Game 22 had three winners, with a first goal in 25th minute: 2 points 1 point and a further point for @nudge and her 23rd minute pick. Table after Game 22 @nudge up one place to 4th, @Tommy up two spots to 10th, and @Redcanuck is off the bottom and into 14th place with their first points of the season.

@Dan saw it coming to be fair... @Pyfish it's all on you mate for this week...

We're about to sign a right-winger from Galatasaray called Yunus Akgun. Watched him vs Molde in the week and he was very good, set up Icardi for a brilliant goal. Finally some better balance on that side as currently relying on two young youth products.

ONE FUCKING GOAL.

I'm stunned the courts found in her favour. Given the evidence was quite clear, as well. They seemed to rely on vets' saying that the impact wouldn't have harmed the horse. But general welfare of the animal has to be brought into question, surely!?

I think it's only selected times where they'll play back conversations on some MNF nights from previous games. Not seen any news that they'll do a live feed. I think at the very least they could do what they did for Women's World Cup, and have the on-field ref explain the decision even on a basic level.

Get their recordings and conversations during a VAR check published live so we and the stadium can hear them. They'll soon change their tune about what they say. Disappointed in Dean doing that. It's just profoundly unprofessional at the end of the day and raises more unnecessary questions. How many other refs are following suit? How many teams have been denied because of this pally nature being put forward before the integrity of following the rules?

Wasn't this before Webb took over?

Very sad to hear. Haven't watched wrestling in a long time but he was part of the group when I did used to watch and he was very entertaining. So young too RIP.
