116 to win Last 5 USA wickets falling for 0 runs in 6 balls.

Sounds terrible. The most eye watering injury I ever witnessed was when I was playing in an under 13s (I think) tournament and somebody’s ball bag got split open by an opponents studs.

All he did, and understandably so, is scream and scream.

Gary Mabbutt broke his leg right in front of me - he didn’t move an inch.

I’m always amused by watching a player ‘work out’ how to get back to ‘full fitness’ It usually goes something along the lines of… Go down like a sack of spuds Realise ref isn’t buying it. Stay down a bit longer Get up and ‘test’ the injury. Limp badly for a couple of strides. Limp less severely for a couple more Start sprinting like Usain Bolt.

That looked offside to me to so I wonder if the flick through was from a Romanian head - I don’t think they showed a replay of that sort of the move. With regard to VAR offsides, these should be treated the same as any other VAR decision - ie was it a clear and obvious error by the official. There is absolutely no way the Lukaku one (and that isn’t the only example) can be seen as a clear and official error - it’s not (as you say) even obvious it’s an error at all.

Panic over @J*B 😁

Hopefully his geography is better than Savage’s 😁

Is Ronaldo winning yet?

Wouldn’t the Jack Walker stand opening explain at least some of that increase?

I think, and I’m sure someone will tell me I’m wrong, the Law Society numbers only include regulated individuals (ie not admin etc). Like you say, still very small, I was curious as to where the conflicting number came from.

I can confirm that’s correct - I deny this means I’m cleverer than you 😀

I absolutely see your point re your first paragraph - I guess the main reason I’d revert to the old rules is to take the subjectivity out of the decision. The reason I’d remove the subjectivity is because I have no confidence in the officials using the common sense you refer to in your second paragraph (or certainly not on a consistent basis).

Thank you 👍 I wonder whether it doesn’t matter (clearly it should) whether he could have got to the ball, maybe just ‘denying him the opportunity to try’ is sufficient for the offence. I’d change the rule back to if you’re in an offside position you’re committing an offence - none of this interfering with play/phase of play nonsense (maybe I’m now officially old fashioned 😁😁)

Or Mr Magoo.

From their accounts… To June 2022 - profit (after tax) £1.3 million To June 2023 - profit (after tax) £1.6 million.

They’ve probably done that on purpose 🧐

So the FA take over 2 and a half months to charge us but we get 2 days to provide a response. Seems fair.

Entirely because of who he (and they) play for.

You seem to be missing a lot - perhaps you’ll end up as our new striker 😁

Where are those figures from as their last set of accounts has their total staff number as 228?

Cooper is Welsh McKenna is English but represented NI at under 21s Martin is English but played for Scotland So does that count as 3, 4, or 5…

Covered by this part of the law?: a player moving from, or standing in, an offside position is in the way of an opponent and interferes with the movement of the opponent towards the ball this is an offside offence if it impacts on the ability of the opponent to play or challenge for the ball

Only the test match team The white ball coach is from Australia Double whammy eh 😁🤔
