Fantastic matchday.

One came in, but needed angry Norwich players for some bookings in the top one.

Very sad indeed. Apparently she took her own life

Going relatively ambitious again

Every team needs a player that just makes things tick. Odegaard is that player for Arsenal.

Game 37 - 17th Game 38 - 25th

GAME 37 - ARSENAL vs TOTTENHAM - SUNDAY 24th SEPTEMBER, 14.00 (BST) GAME 38 - RANGERS vs MOTHERWELL - SUNDAY 24th SEPTEMBER, 15.00 (BST) ***any predictions made after kick-off will not count*** @Mel81x @Lucas @6666 @Dr. Gonzo @Michael @Redcanuck @Devil @Reluctant Striker @CaaC (John) @Beelzebub @Devil-Dick Willie @JoshBRFC @Viva la FCB @Pyfish @Bluewolf @Tommy @Rucksackfranzose @OrangeKhrush

7 goals across the two games, but they all came in one game! Hull vs Leeds in Game 35 was goalless, therefore no winners. While the first of the seven goals in Bayern vs Man Utd came in the 28th minute... 3 points! Table after Game 36: Being the only scorer for this set of games, @Michael took full advantage with his first exact score and goes up to 5th, joining two others on 8 points.

Get me in to @Lucas. Sorry, I meant Leeds.

What an absolute cunt.

That has no relevance to this game but thanks

It's funny you mention issues about understanding things because as far as I can see you went straight to the defence of Brand and seemed to want to totally dismiss what these women are saying. And therefore it becomes totally ironic that you mention 'audi alteram partem' as you don't actually want to seem to process or listen to what the women are saying, hiding behind judicial process instead of giving them any kind of benefit of the doubt that they may be telling the truth. I understand about being acquitted, but sometimes not about there being no evidence, it could be that the evidence isn't strong enough to prosecute. I just get the impression from you that you come to the defence of him because he has similar views on media, specifically 'western media' that you don't like. I understand Brand will have the right to defending the allegations. I haven't questioned otherwise. It does seem wildly suspicious to me the timeline of events. Apparently he knew about these allegations in 2017. But did enough to quieten them down. Then he turns into this anti-media persona and his character takes him into a conspiracy theorist. Now all of a sudden it's a witch-hunt against him because of those pesky media bodies and journalists. Cry me a fucking a river. What a slap in the face for those women who potentially suffered. Oh they're only going for Brand because the media don't like him or vice versa, nothing to do with the fact he could be a domestic abuser and/or rapist. Give over.

Don't know about anyone else but I prefer the order for the username (on the big result updates!). Didn't expect to still be top but looks like quite a few of us lost on the games pre-international weekend.

Yeah, calm the fuck down @CaaC (John)

So you think everyone is now out to get Brand because he didn't like the way he was treated by a media organisation? 'Rape is not tolerated in western society'. Sorry, but rape should not be tolerated in any society! That doesn't need any trial determination. Did the women lie about Mendy, or could it just not be proved that rape occurred? There's a world of difference between the two.

Very tough on him, as well as Brentford because he's good for them in their shape and style of play.

What does politics have to do with it? Sexual assault/rape isn't and shouldn't be politicised. 'The mainstream don't want that'. As if they've gone out and found two women to randomly fabricate something that can be deeply tragic and harrowing to experience. You're happy to believe one man (you're politically aligned with) who admitted struggles with substance misuse and sex, but not happy to believe or give credence to two women who may have suffered at the hands of Brand? In fact, what else would you like them to provide you with? Is rape not enough?

Carrying you fuckers right here

Will stick with Hull please (they drew with Cov)

I can't make sense of this, sorry.

Do you believe the victims who have made the reports? Or do you automatically think Brand is innocent?

I think there was an insinuation that because Brand was part of rife drug use culture then it would excuse the offences. Otherwise why mention it...

Drugs make rape and sexual assault okay? Seems like you're making excuses for abusers.

I thought he was pushing hard but Norris was defending well. There was talk that Russell should have surrendered 3rd for Hamilton who could have pushed Norris harder but that's just inconceivable for Russell to do, at least voluntarily. To be honest, it was great to have some entertainment at the front of the track for once towards the end!
