Only five extra minutes?

Postby Goataldo » Tue Jan 19, 2010 11:54 pm

Am I a biased conspiracy theorist, or was that a tad excessive?

Seriously though, I'd love to know, and how long actuallly got played?

Would someone mind going through the entire game with a stopwatch, and timing the stoppages so we know how many were supposed to be added.

Please.

It didn't help when the ball was held up in the crowd on 2 or 3 occasions. Even if it's just for 10 seconds the ref might add extra on for the annoyance.

The referee always adds a second on to the time when sir cunt stops chewing to berate said referee. Therfore scum are actually owed 32 seconds which shall be added on to the allotted extra extra time which shall be enforced by FIFA if the scores are level or at a deficit to Glazercorp sorry scum after 90 minutes at the budweiser arena sorry swamp.

What are the odds that if we are winning or drawing at the Swamp, there will be a minimum of 7 mins regardless of what happens in the game ?
Wonder if I could put a bet on ?
