groovyalbert's latest activity

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) and Imran (@Annihilate Now!) are here to discuss three 1-1 draws.
The first got us knocked out of the FA Cup, the next puts us in a good position in our Round of 16 Europa League game, and the latest was an actual decent performance against Arsenal at Old Trafford.
All hopes for the season now rest on the Europa League - does Amorim have the squad to win it?

groovyalbert replied to the thread English cricket thread.Unfortunate but time to move on. He'll be turning 36 during the next Ashes and his body is clearly shot to pieces at this point. Unfortunate but it is what it is. Bigger issue, England's bowling options right now must be at their lowest point...

groovyalbert replied to the thread That Alvarez penalty.A lot of this talk is detracting from the very pertinent observation that Oblak's attempt to save Rudiger's penalty was laughable. Deserved to lose for that alone. That was one of the most action-packed shootouts I've seen - from Vini coming...

groovyalbert replied to the thread VAR, Refs and Linesmen | General Discussion.Then I don't see how the videos can definitely prove that the referee's on-field decision to allow the penalty to stand was incorrect.

groovyalbert replied to the thread That Alvarez penalty.Rubbish decision - not enough evidence in the videos we've seen to confirm the referee's on-field decision to allow the penalty was incorrect. Horrible rule to not allow a retake.

groovyalbert replied to the thread VAR, Refs and Linesmen | General Discussion.Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought VAR was there to inform the referee to change their mind if it can definitively prove that the on-field decision is the wrong one? I'm still struggling to see how any replay of the Alvarez penalty...

groovyalbert replied to the thread Mason Mount's Many Misfortunes (please don't make another waste of money post).There isn't a club on this planet who'll be interested in him after his last 2 seasons here. Honestly, my pay-to-play Sunday XIs would think twice.

groovyalbert replied to the thread New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built - design visualisation released.I mean, I get not liking it for it's unique design but that's a nonsense comment and seems petty/deliberately obtuse. I'm sure they wouldn't have released that had things been going better on the pitch.

groovyalbert replied to the thread New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built - design visualisation released.Well said. Our history has always been steeped in embracing change and being the pioneers of English football. Our most successful periods have in large been down to the managers/owners of the time being willing to embrace new ways of doing...

groovyalbert replied to the thread New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built - design visualisation released.On the design, I think people are being a bit too precious. I actually like it's ambition and break from tradition. Let's be honest, if it had been too similar to OT then people would have questioned why we're rebuilding, and had we redeveloped...

groovyalbert replied to the thread New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built.Any word on where we'll play whilst it's being constructed? Ground share or build next to existing stadium?

groovyalbert replied to the thread New Stadium | 100k Stadium to be built.I imagine a big chunk of the extra seats added will be sold as corporate packages. It will be interesting to see the breakdown of how many of the added ~25,000 actually make it to regular punters.
