    What is the point of VAR if it looks at that and decides no foul.

    Re the armband, the FA’s excuse is not to put players in that position. Why not let Kane and the players decide? I get the risk and inevitable frustration if he were to pick up a second booking. But in my view it’s worth the risk, even if just for the first game to make a statement. And if he...

    Qatar keeper has to be the worst to play at a WC by some distance.

    That is an absolutely obvious kickback. Not even subtle. Even Dion can’t find a reason that was disallowed. Seems the officials took the bribe then.

    Mike Ashley Takeover …Ready and Waiting

    Like I said yesterday, not being able to use my phone for essentially the last week couldn’t have come at a worse time. Finally caught up with the relevant threads and a few messages. What a rollercoaster! Ideal world I personally wouldn’t want MA, but he’s here now, so welcome. And Office...

    What a shit time to be so ill I’ve not been able to check SBT (or anything) for a good few days. I’ve got God knows how many pages on the Wasps Admin to read and now this whole new thread! I haven’t read back other than a few posts and I see some cynicism, but surely it’s a good thing. Ideally...

    True, let’s hope he adapts that today or we just get COH running at him. Either way I hope we exploit it. Also love how most responses have questioned if he’ll even be fit - another good point!

    I know JCS became Maldini after he left, but hopefully we’ve just watched the game v Luton last year and told Vik to bully him in the exact same way Luton’s bang average striker did. 2-0, Gyokeres, Hamer.

    Own up. Who left before Vic’s goal

    Last Tuesday two blokes left their seats for a beer after 23 minutes and didn’t return until ~65 minutes. Head says great - it’s ticket sales to the club. Heart say what is the point? How is that in anyway supporting the team and players. Re the OP; I’ve never understood people leaving early.

    Yea I’ll be watching it. Not sure why you think I wouldn’t be.

    The MR our narrative will be pushed again if we lose a few games after the WC break. Or, if we continue to do well, it’ll be pushed again next season. How many seasons has it been raised now? It’ll always be lingering until it happens.

    Would absolutely love it if this happened. I enjoy watching England at tournaments and despite Southgates likely negative tactics, we have a good chance of progressing. However, would be happy to sacrifice all that if a world stance was taken at such a high profile event to show how backwards...

    That really is top class, from the first touch, turn, direct running and then composed finish. Without doubt the best striker we’ve had in a long long time.

    Appreciate we’ve scored since the changes but we’ve also lost our dominance.

    Hope I’m wrong but those subs are mental. Two creative players off for a hard working box to box and a poacher? Just Allen for Palmer would have been ok, but now a change in shape and loss of creativity isn’t ideal.

    We’re playing good football. It’s going to be frustrating at times, but we have good footballers who want to play the ball and move. I’m fine with it, as ultimately it will come off and we need that intricate play to break them down.

    Disappointing first half but we aren’t playing badly. Wigan are doing a great job of shutting down space around their box so our movement needs to be a step up to break them down. We’re dominating the ball but sort of going through the motions, we need to raise the tempo and pace on and off the...

    He didn’t as you say, but that isn’t a yellow. He seems to pick up an unfair amount of bookings - he really isn’t that sort of player.
