    I think you may need to look at the footage if you think zaha didnt make much of it. He was still rolling when taylor got his card out.

    As i said earlier in the thread, zaha didnt dive much by his standards on sunday.

    Coincidentally he had been booked early on but i am sure that had nothing to do with it

    What's the fuss - he made 9 changes and they seem to be winning.

    I find it absolutely hilarious that them lot over at the Holmsdale End are literally saying capoue intentionally went out at the start of the game to take Zaha out and was probably under orders to do so from Gracia.

    These people are professionals and respect their fellow professionals on the pitch. Capoue has, as far as I'm aware, a pretty decent disciplinary record and despite how much the fans probably wanted him to go out and take the diving little fekker out, doesn't have the same feelings of dislike for the twaat and would in no way intentionally go out to main him.

    Furthermore, it wasn't even as bad as they are making out, taking dodgy camera angles to try and force their odd agenda and that this is the sole reason they lost the match despite it still being even numbers on both sides for the full 90.

    Sad little saps.

    From above though it sounds like it is just the few keyboard warriors and that the majority of the fans on the day were pretty sensible.

    Have to say the ones I've met in person have always been pretty decent chaps.

    Seems like Woy now operates in full ‘things were better in the old days, where are my glasses’ mode.

    Their singling out of Capoue is pure racism.

    If it was a white player singing out a black player or a black player singling out a white player, or two white players, or a Lebanese and an Inuit, we would never have even heard it mentioned.

    Ergo anyone talking about this incident from now on is a card carrying klansman.

    He scored the best hat trick I've seen.
    Left foot,right foot and a header I think?
    Slightly better then Barry's two pens and a deflection effort.

    As far as I can see only Everton, Sheffield Wednesday and Aston Villa managed that in 1932. Are you sure about the year?

    A little earlier. Including Chris Balderstone the England cricketer in their squad.

    Per wiki;
    "It was Balderstone's penalty against Pat Jennings and Tottenham Hotspur that had Carlisle briefly topping England's Football League after the first 3 games of the 1974–75 season."

    I’m currently on holiday in Northumberland and Mrs Keighley and I visited the town of Kelso today.

    There was no sign of our absent whisky-swilling former Palarse triallist chum.
