I think the days of where it was thought total abstinence was best (not that it was ever adhered to) is long gone.

Unfortunately the UK law won't allow him to get fined at the level of Reus.

Hasnt reus been caught something like 5x driving without a license?
Not sure which country it is, i want to say Finland, where fines for drunk driving or speeding are based on income level, i wish all countries would do that

It is Finland, and that would be fascinating to see in North America since, I presume, drinking and driving is more frequent.

We talked about it in the other thread about the Bundesliga should be looking for reasons to hurt Bayern to create drama. Well Wolves score a handball goal and it's not ruled out, and Man City have a what looks like a clear penalty denied. That's good, let us have some drama lol.

must be so disheartening when you've thrown in everything you've got all game, everything hurts and you just want to hang on ... and your opponent can throw in Jesus, Sane and Mahrez from the bench, despite de Bruyne missing. Sickening.

Seems a strange thing to say about a team who's taken 2 points out of 9, but Wolves should feel pretty good about themselves. Better against Everton, unlucky against Leicester and went toe to toe against City and did well. If they keep playing like this, they'll be a fun team to watch and hopefully make a push for top 8.

Richarlison sent off today. Pretty soft, but probably correct.

It's correct simply because it's such a stupid, pointless thing to do. Everton gonna top the red card table with ease at this point.

That was an enjoyable game to watch. Wolves have some real skill and that save by Patricio was the best I have seen in a long time.

now that's a red card, cause Begovic would have given up another one.

It wasnt overly pretty but I'll take the win.
Hughton has Brighton really well organized, if they can maintain their fitness and energy levels they're going to cause a lot of problems for teams this season.

Newcastle defends the whole game, goes down 0-1. Then attacks and gets the equalizer.
Goes back to defending and loses 1-2.

That refereeing... oy vey. Dubious penalty, the tying goal that should have been a red card the other way, random foul calls that weren't fouls. Nevertheless, happy to see bus parkers lose.
Can't complain about the start of the season so far - Chelsea perfect and Wolves looking good, though it would have been nice to see them on 7 points. It's nice to have that visually pleasing style added to the league, as a spectator, rather than the boring garbage served up by all the other also-rans.
