I'd forgot about that one, I haven't heard it in a while probably since he was shifted of the wing! I actually really like that song we should use it more.

We've not really got that many songs for individual players which is a shame. Bennett and Raya could do with their own song. Dack and Graham could do with better ones!

If an offence involves contact it is penalised by a direct free kick or penalty kick. There isn't a different set of rules for fouls inside and outside the box

Direct free kick A direct free kick is awarded if a player commits any of the following offences against an opponent in a manner considered by the referee to be careless, reckless or using excessive force: charges jumps at kicks or attempts to kick pushes strikes or attempts to strike (including head-butt) tackles or challenges trips or attempts to trip If an offence involves contact it is penalised by a direct free kick or penalty kick. Careless is when a player shows a lack of attention or consideration when making a challenge or acts without precaution. No disciplinary sanction is needed Reckless is when a player acts with disregard to the danger to, or consequences for, an opponent and must be cautioned Using excessive force is when a player exceeds the necessary use of force and endangers the safety of an opponent and must be sent off A direct free kick is awarded if a player commits any of the following offences: handles the ball deliberately (except for the goalkeeper within their penalty area) holds an opponent impedes an opponent with contact spits at an opponent Thats the law - what part of that would you say equals a penalty?

Just because two players make contact in the penalty area doesn't make it a foul and a penalty

Just because there was contact in the penalty area doesn't mean its a 'definite' penalty. I didn't think it was a foul, he's already falling over having lost possession. and he sticks his foot out to try to regain balance. It was 'definitely' not a clear and obvious error.

Conways crossing ability hasn't been there for a couple of seasons now.

Personally I hate it. Even if it worked properly and it clearly doesn't yet. It takes the joy out of scoring a goal and fundamentally changes how we watch a game, it might be okay if your watching at home but in the stadium it must be awful. I'm all for helping out referees but this isn't the way for me. Things i'd try:- - Pay referees more money - Try to create a larger pool of Referees (allowing you to promote an relegate them) - Try to encourage less criticism of referees by managers - Actually sort out how players interact with the Referee on the field, punish abuse and crowding harshly and it will go away. Where I think Technology can be used to help is for Red cards with dangerous tackles if this can be limited to (30 seconds) and with offsides, there must be the technology available to tell whether a player is offside or not that can work within 10 seconds as sometimes its borderline impossible for the officials. It would then be upto the official to decide whether that player is interfering with play. For it to work it would have to be a message in the linesmans ear with a correction not this stop and refer stuff.

Raya Nyambe Lenihan Mulgrew Bell Smallwood Bennett Chapman Dack Armstrong Graham Subs: Leutwiler, Williams, Travis, Whittingham, Payne, Antonsson, Samuel. Could switch Amrstrong for antonsson, got options there though. Next game i'd have something similar to what finished the Oldham game

For anyone watching the under 23's regularly who's ready to step up to the first team ? If anyone? From what i've seen and heard previously its Travis but I've not really seen enough myself to comment.

Id Go Raya Nyambe, Downing, Mulgrew, Williams Travis, Smallwood, Evans, Antonsson Dack Samuel If Conway is able to get 60-70 mins in then i'd start him ahead of Travis. Subs: Leuitwiler, Ward, Caddis, Whittingham, Conway, Graham, Nuttall
