Attempting to word this very carefully: It appears that Arsenal may have to face the music over a player they have been more than happy to pick.

For over 2 years.

I’m sure the Guardian have worded it very carefully.

Arsenal continued playing their player, with knowledge of the allegations is as sick as it gets, and adds to my hatred of that club.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

we don't even know it's him? And didn't those allegations happen in Ibiza and the law was changed so he's untouchable?

Is the FA CUP becoming obsolete?

Sheffield United are playing Cardiff and the ground is basically empty.

Why not charge a nominal ticket fee and get some sort of atmosphere?

Cardiff won 1-0

So why not give tickets away, or charge a quid. 

Agree about the Thursday night thing. 

At least Everton had 38,000 show up. Maybe just the PL games on Thursdays?

This villa, Hammers game, there’s been more physio’s on the pitch, than actual football.

Like watching an episode of Holby City.

Dortmund v Leverkusen is a cracker. 1-3 at HT.

Dean Windass, 55 has been living with stage 2 dementia, poor man so young for this to happen.

Only seen dribs and drabs of it, but the decision to give a corner that Villa’s first goal came from, good lord…

It was close to the West Ham player

How he missed the smack to the face of the WestHam defender is a mystery.

[Nebraska Red]

Absolutely disgraceful performance by the referee.

AS bad as VAR is, it does cover up some of the glaring defensive of the officials.
