Yeah, that's what I mean. It was given as a goal. No VAR, that would have stood. Refs are only human at the end of the day. Can you imagine the backlash to that yesterday if there was no VAR and the goal was an equalising goal that resulted in Arsenal winning the Premier? This is exactly how...

My dad said he knew him. Knew Vince Hill too.

I thought that showed VAR working as it should for once. Clear mistake by the ref. No VAR and that WOULD have gone down as a goal. We have to accept that refs are human and do make mistakes from time to time. And sometimes officials are unsighted and can miss things too, simply because they...

This is when VAR can work Obvious error by the ref. Check only took seconds. Just use it for stuff like that and surely no-one can complain.

Foden is some player isn't he. I wonder if Southgate will consider him for a more central role. 27 games from midfield is astounding

I'm surprised and wonder why the league don't go the full hog on their own apparent disdain for the rules and give the teams an extra 2 points, rather than take any off.

They don't half faff about a lot don't they. All the way up to the penalty area and then back again. Very irritating to watch.

Saw Al Murray on Sunday. He was very good still. Expected it to be a bit old hat and in many ways it was, but it still worked. At his best chatting to the audience, as with si many comics.

Yup, love it too. Great stuff. 😍

I decided to watch Red Eye. Utterly ridiculous and daft as a brush. Quite entertaining though.

Whatever it is, it needs a complete reform and rethink. I think scrapping it entirely would be the wrong move. If someone elbows a player in the face, off the ball and the refs don't see it, surely it's a good thing for an eye in the sky to relay that to the ref, that there's been a serious...

As inept as Norwich were, I have to say I was very impressed with Leeds last night.

Where are they streaming? I will give them a look.

It is bad now for sure. If will be tenfold though if they now scrap VAR. Everything all back on the ref. That's not a pro VAR stance, it's just the reality, sadly.

If I remember rightly, I was so excited I got to Wembley at 10.30, believing there would be a real buzz going on, but I think we were just about the only people there. It was absolutely deserted and we just sat about for hours.🤷

1. Obviously Scrapping it I feel would be a disaster now. The increased pressure on refs would be completely off the scale.

Unfortunately it's not Wingy. It will be how the clubs feel, not the fans and it will be a decision based on money. One wrong decision can have huge financial consequences. Really hope that if it's to be kept, it can be used properly. Should be goal line technology plus the likes of serious...

I am watching it too. Problem for me is, it's very derivative and so soon after Constellation, it's a bit like an extension of that. Also, even though I do think he is a very good actor, I think Joel Edgerton is completely miscast in this. Just can't sympathise with or associate with, or root...

Same. Only trouble is I was in my 20's at the time.

The least he could have done was go go in armed with a spray can of sky blue paint.
