  1. I dont disagree but we've got one thing killing the game, let's not introduce another.

  2. Absolutely farcical .... just accept that many decisions in football are subjective and a matter of opinion, and people's opinions will always differ. Let the referee decide, and just get on with it. Some decisions will go your team's way, some won't. Keep the goal-line technology .... a nice and simple objective matter of fact ( technology can cope with that)

  3. Not as loud as those bloody EA sports ads when you forget to turn the volume down at the end of the first half !

  4. I feel a song coming on, "Video Killed the Football Star". The International Football Association Board (IFAB), which rules on the game's laws, meets on Saturday to decide whether to approve the technology permanently following its trial period. If it does, then FIFA is committed to using the system at the World Cup but UEFA has said it won't be deployed in next season's Champions League. I believe VAR is here to stay because TV loves it and they pay for football. It will be refined over time with live video and audio on VAR decision making available to spectators in the ground and much more importantly to the TV watching millions. Like T20 cricket expect dancing girls and firework displays when a goal is finally awarded although before or after the advert is the big question. A cartoon of a player having a hissy-fit if disallowed? Anyway I learnt something last night as I did not know it was a bookable offence to 'stutter' in the run up to taking a penalty. What next, why not outlaw body swerves and feints, step overs or indeed any form of creative play such as 'dribbling' with the ball that deliberately dupes/fools the opposition. I dislike those who run our game more with each passing day. This micro analysis of decisions will spread to other parts of play and ruin it. I am falling out of love with football even more and it's a damm shame after all this time. Video Killed the Football Star.

  5. Too many shades of grey in football. Rugby use it for trys. Trys are not open to interpretation the ball is either grounded or not. If they are not sure they don't give it. It's worked for 140 years leave it alone

  6. Yet. Sign a couple of decent defenders in the summer and Sir Charles could yet step forward to play alongside a combative midfielder. He needs to practice coming to the Riverside touchline on 75 minutes before taking 5 minutes to trudge towards the JW stand, waving to all quarters of the stadium, as he was subbed. Great player, great memories Biz.
