It’s still a choice. Granted it’s easier for some people to change than others but that doesn’t stop it being a choice.

It’s been quite a tough Xmas schedule so I would probably rest the whole first eleven.

They just have to allow for the margin of error, it’s not rocket science. In effect you just draw a line the width of the margin of error for both the attacker and defender and is there is any overlap then he is onside. So it favours the attacker - they might be very slightly offside but as it is impossible to be sure they get away with it.

It’s good to see the Tories carry on a good Labour policy, especially considering they voted against the minimum wage when Labour introduced it, say it would cost 2 million jobs. Hopefully it will keep rising.

You are talking complete ****** as usual grandad, the reason VAR was brought in was because so many decisions were regularly incorrect, sometimes spectacularly.

Why would you want to change something that for once has us top of a league? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/50944416

To be fair, he's just stating a fact.

You are illustrating my point perfectly. According to you geniuses, leaving the EU is supposed to make us richer by boosting industry and making food cheaper - a new golden age brought on by Brexit - ergo we didn't vote to be poorer.

I suspect that's true for old people but the vast majority of working people it wouldn't be. If it is a disaster and factories start closing because of Brexit that's going to be hard line to sell to someone struggling to put food on the table for their family. We're supposed to be richer after Brexit so we can spend more on the NHS, that's what Boris's bus told us.

That’s nonsense, the law just needs to state that the benefit of doubt goes to the attacker.

That wouldn’t make any difference, there would still be someone offside/onside by a fraction of a boot, it would just move the lines.

Exactly. VAR is a bit annoying but with the amount of blatantly wrong decisions we’ve been on the end of at bigger clubs over the years I’m surprised any Saints fan wants to go back to how it was. It needs to be streamlined but it’s better overall IMO, if only for cutting down on the amount of diving.

VAR isn’t perfect but neither is having a Watford player punch the ball into our goal or having a perfectly good goal disallowed in a cup final. They just need to tweak it.

If it’s a disaster people will soon change their minds, the EU have made it perfectly clear we would be welcomed back in. It obviously all depends how it turns out but no-one voted to be poorer.

To be fair it doesn’t mean they were not right, it all depends how Brexit turns out. If it’s a disaster then they will soon be re-elected.

Obviously it depends on the movement of the players but the Frame can be frozen at the position that gives most benefit of doubt to the striker, if wether the contact is slightly earlier or later makes a difference.

To be fair it doesn’t have to be that precise. If you are giving the benefit of doubt to the attacker then you freeze it when there has obviously been contact with the ball (probably a split second after the ball has been struck).

**** knows why Pep took de Bruyne off. Not even Liverpool can mess this one up now.

I enjoyed Gavin and Stacey back in the original series but this Xmas one was a bit ****, they should have just left it alone - it’s had it’s day. Fawlty Towers, Fools and Horse, and more recently the inbetweeners and fleabag make me laugh. I guess the kids nowadays find other stuff funny, doesn’t mean it’s worse.

I’m not suggesting we do away with iPhones and range rovers, or attempt to stop poverty altogether. I just reckon we should be able to scrape together enough tax revenue so that kids don’t have to sleep on piles of clothes on hospital floors etc.

That’s just Tory bull**** IMO. Decent public services mean paying a bit more tax - when asked to do so some say OK, others scream “Venezuela”.

I don’t think it’s weird, I just despise the greed and selfishness and see conservatism as a movement for both. I find it depressing to live in a society that values having the latest iPhone or Range Rover over caring for the most unfortunate and vulnerable. That’s just my opinion.

How does what I think effect the outcome of an election? Weirdo

LOL, that’s a first, coming from a Tory. It’s you ****s who cry like a bunch of babies at the thought of paying a bit more tax to stop people dying on trollies in hospital corridors.

You still don’t had to be a “Lefty” to hate everything the Tories stand for.
