This is a shitty team of fucking cheats, propped up at the top of the league by the best officials money can buy. So many instances, in a single game, where you can point to VAR and ask what the fuck they were thinking. Where you can look at a ref that tried to decide whether he should put his thumb on the scale today, and decided instead to put his whole fat, stupid fucking arse on it.New Age Stoke, with the blessings of the PGMOL. They'll be mid-table if they were officiated properly, but fat chance of that happening with this crew of incompetent halfwits running our game.As I said in the match thread, I'm genuinely wondering if there's any point watching the PL for now. Because it's being rigged more than a Royal Rumble, with a lot of the same tactics. And I'm increasingly feeling like a mug for continuing to watch it.At least there are some positives to take from that. Hato will be a more than adequate stand in while Cucu recovers. Sarr looks like the real deal. And Lavia returns to the pitch with all his old silkiness.But the main thing I'll be taking away from this game is a taste in my mouth that will be tough to shift. Courtesy of the cheats in red playing this game, and the cheats that might as well have been in red officiating it.Football lost today.
