It's clear to me that the injury to Tats was the turning point this season, and if it hadn't happened we would probably have made the playoffs. There's only so far you can go with square pegs in round holes. Anyway, this little clip of him coming back smiling is one of the best moments of a...

On a good day

Adelaide on a couple of goals for the Under 16s?

And I'll have a Cappuccino

Well the current rules and procedures are bonkers, and like you and everyone else I think changes to VAR are needed. But my pictures in the Toenail Poll thread speak for themselves. The momentary offside was technically correct, which has helped me to live with what happened rather than...

Nah, just far away

He wasn't I'm afraid Pete. Have you seen my screenshots in the 'Poll' thread?

Ayari being a bit of a flop might have influenced his thinking. But even a couple of underwhelming loans might have allowed Robins to give a few people a rest here and there.

I couldn't say for sure, but in all honesty it does look more than that. Maybe 4 or 6 inches rather than 2 inches in old money. The margin of error should be more. I think the simplest explanation is that the VAR guys (with access to far more precise tech than me) got it right according to...

Maybe I can help. I am sure that Haji was marginally (and very briefly) offside. The screenshots below are taken from the YouTube video from the reverse angle - . On a PC (not a mobile) you can use shmmeee’s nice tip to pause the video at 17:38, then press full stop to advance frame by frame...

As someone who supports VAR in principle, I find this 5 minute conversation completely bonkers and unacceptable. They are playing around with centimeters when the lines drawn for offside should be a foot wide, with any overlap meaning onside. Give them 20 seconds max to announce a decision, if...

Or Raddy Avramovic

tbf you can see Collins gesturing to Thomas to clear it sideways. Did he do more than just gesture though, because if that's what he wanted he should have been screaming it too. Never did understand the people who thought Collins was miles better than Wilson. I would describe both of them as OK...

You and me both!
