This is weird, Empty stadiums apart from those lording over us and their mates 

Announcers reading lineups to nobody!

[Tom 10979]

On one channel with fake crowd noise and one without it, think I prefer it without 

[Scotland1 656]

Feels like I’m watching a pre season game at a summer camp but it’s better than Netflix! Unless it’s tiger king ?

Now the scheduled water break 

[Ewood Ace 4941]

How is that not a goal, clearly over the line.

100%.

Goalline technology breakdown. 

Has someone forgot to turn it on.

[Cherry Blue 656]

Absolutely a goal. Keeper had ball in his hand but from side he took it into side net inside the goal. 

Where is VAR?

[AllRoverAsia 6209]

SNAFU

Goal line tech not switched on? Officials too brainwashed to question it.

LOL.

England continues to be the laughing stock of the world.

Why did the linesman not see that ball over the line

He would have but scared to question the IT, maybe not allowed to.

[Tom 10979]

They haven’t showed the usual graphic, clearly someone forgot to turn it on today

Surely it is still part of their job to get the correct decision. I hope it is not that the premier league don’t want Sheff Utd to win.

As they say VAR could (or should) have stepped in. If Villa survived this season that error could be worth £millions.

Bizarre, isn’t it? They said at HT that they could have used VAR to overturn it....

They should have acknowledged the error at half time and given them the goal. Too late now.

Just flicked on the Villa game. Proper weird without a crowd sound.

I feel like I make the crowd sounds in my head when something happens. Odd.

I've got it via a US channel with crowd sound which sounds like static inteference. The channel did acknowledge this at half time and said that the PL had promised to improve it in future, still in testing stage.

Almost the first BCD goal due to tippy tappy in defence. It will happen soon enough.

Didn’t realise that. I’ve been watching with the crowd noise on and, to be fair, it’s quite good. One shot went just past the post and the ‘ooohs’ were spot on. They even had chants of ‘United, United’ when Sheff got a corner. I’m also messing around on my iPad, looking up now and again and it has the feel (with the sound) of a normal game. 
 

I’ve just switched channels to the non crowd version and it feels like a training match. Credit where it’s due in my opinion.

So the officials are now getting paid for not doing their jobs

Just heard the the goal line tech was working but that it's view of the ball was blocked. Odd as there was no one swinging on the crossbar at the time. I suppose a side on view may have been interfered with.

I agree the match officials should have done more.
