Trevor Hockey's Beard 571 Posted May 21, 2023 Does anyone else feel that the Wolves versus Everton game was allowed to carry on until Everton scored - they'd still be playing now if necessary? The Premier League is a product - I find it hard to believe that results are not manipulated. 7 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 10,253 Posted May 21, 2023 Hahahahahahah. I thought Leeds would inevitably push forwards season after season because their fans and owners are full of ambition unlike little norwich.. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,776 Posted May 21, 2023 Won't matter because wish we were Leeds had already moved seamlessly to wish we were Forest. Much like the conveyor belt on the generation game... "Didn't they do well?" 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A Load of Squit 5,844 Posted May 21, 2023 Heard a Leeds fan on the radio this morning saying he'd never eat a 99 again. I suppose he should be thankful that Mina hadn't scored in the 69th minute. 11 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 2,022 Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) Not that I necessarily expect us to be competing near the top next season...that open goal has been well and truly missed this season...but Southampton Leeds and Leicester were probably as good as we could have hoped to have come down....provided all of the better players at Leicester are picked of in the summer (and Maddison sell on activated) Southampton , a young side who could go either way , a lot will depend on whether they keep Tella next season, Leeds are basically still the championship team they were a couple of seasons ago Edited May 21, 2023 by GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Samwam27 587 Posted May 21, 2023 I didnt think you could get stoppage time in injury time. Wasnt it the same with Sheff Wed v Posh. Referee said 6 added mins after 90 and yet they score in 98min. Should it be allowed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Added time is a minimum time - if the winning team sends out for burger and chips and an on-pitch full-body Thai massage the referee is perfectly entitled to add the time. The difficulty comes if the referee remembers to set his watch this week, but not next. Maybe got something to do with if it's him getting the massage perhaps?

Yes, the time shown on the board held up by the 4th official is the minimum time left to play, not the actual time left. Ref perfectly entitled to add a few minutes on for time wasting, a stoppage time goal, substitutions etc.... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Capt. Pants 4,685 Posted May 22, 2023 Leeds comfortably look the 2nd worst if not the worst team in the league. No quality whatsoever. Would be quite amusing if they scrape a narrow win against a woeful Spurs team only to see a late equaliser for Everton against Bournemouth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
king canary 8,261 Posted May 22, 2023 At some point the game has to modernise and move to a stopped clock situation. Suddenly timewasting is a thing of the past. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is more pronounced in added time, often because time wasting is also more pronounced. I think if a player hits the deck and causes a 2 minute stoppage in the 53rd minute you probably won't get the full time added back on but if they do it in the 91st you're more likely to see it all added. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
