That is subjective.

Like I said. Show me a shot looking along the line. This is a common preconception amongst people who don’t know what they are looking at. It is quite common for there to be a gap between the line and the ball when seen from certain angles. It’s one of the first things that you are taught on a refereeing course. So I ask again. What’s wrong with that?

Very exciting but got kicked around a lot last night. He deserved better protection from the referee. I suspect we shall have to get used to this sort of ale house physicality.

No it should not necessarily. What it should be is “Hoist with my own petard” if you are going to stay true to Shakespeare but since Mr. Miserableoldgit is using his own words he is free to write whatever he wants. Hamlet, Act 3, Scene 4

And what’s wrong with that? It’s quite possible that part of the ball is over part of the line and anyway, VAR has never been used or intended for the ball in or out of play. It’s football. Just get on with the game.

Lots of useful interceptions/repossessions too.

It wasn’t for coaching. It was for waving an imaginary card.

Remember, a pedant never sleeps.

Is that one of Harry Potter’s? I’m with you all the way.

It’s supposed to be both sides that compromise.

But we weren’t playing Burnley 🙄

And that is a serious concern. At least we can enjoy this season.

His reaction was more extreme than than. Plus we don’t know if he said anything.

We’ve also had injustices caused by VAR. On balance I think we’re a lot better off without it.

No it doesn’t. It has to be stopped, along with the mass confrontations. We are losing referees at the grass roots level and the attitude of the players is one factor. Youngsters see these overhyped stars get away with it and think that it’s acceptable.

That was the number of short passes. The total was 991 which is a new Championship record.

991

What a strange feeling.

9 mins. I win. Closest 😋

Ah, Anonymous Aribo to seal the victory.

Sweepstake for the amount of extra time? I’ll go go 11 minutes.

Well bugger me backwards with a bargepole. We’ve scored, and a forward too!

We’re trying our best.

The goalscorer?

Anybody can fluke a goal, any time. One goal is never enough.
