    Match Thread Blackburn Rovers - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 27th Apr

    Yeah, I sort of get it, but very interesting to note that Peterborough played away at Cheltenham on Tuesday and Cheltenham are in the bottom 4 and in real danger of going down. Peterborough's place in the top 6 is cemented, so there was nothing riding on the game for them. Peterborough made 7...

    VAR needs an overhaul

    It's nuts. I believe in the concept of VAR and do feel that it could be for the greater good, but watching that clip, they have created a monster. Absolutely ridiculous the petty levels they have brought it down to and worse of all, they have done so using a low level technology at hand that...

    Trump is my favourite comedian of the year already

    Would have been funny if he had then said "leaves the stage" before then walking off.

    Championship thread 23/24

    I have always been an atheist until now, but now I suddenly believe in God. It's a sign. The almighty has sent Leicester up so he can punish them in the Premier League.

    Championship thread 23/24

    I did keep saying (along with a few others) you just can't predict games at this stage of the season. No-one would have predicted for Leeds to get absolutely thumped 4 nil at QPR tonight. Teams at the top can falter and those at the bottom, suddenly start playing like a team at the other end...

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    That's bonkers isn't it. The slow mo video always looks so much worse doesn't it. How else is the defender supposed to win the ball? Try and tackle, but not propel his leg forward at all? That's one mess of a video clip.

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    What a mess. Surely it wasn't the intention to use VAR in this manner. That's like someone trying to teach linear algebra. Painful. And absolutely nuts.

    Incredibly scary stuff, but also at times, very funny, though worryingly funny.😂

    Sometimes what he says makes sense, but a lot of the time it's nonsensical gibberish. And not just normal, nonsensical gibberish, but bigly nonsensical gibberish.

    Definitely something not right with Rashford. He's a shadow of his former self right now.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Hull City Match Thread - Wednesday 24th Apr

    Okay. Obviously entitled to your opinion.👍 I feel that we have now, after the Hull game. Which is obviously a very obvious conclusion to come to. We have to face facts that we have zero chance of now making the top 6. I have no idea what sort of team Robins will put out tomorrow.

    Match Thread Coventry City - Hull City Match Thread - Wednesday 24th Apr

    Yes, because it will have been the last game of the season. Robins said on Wednesday before the game that he found it very difficult for him to put a team out against Hull Do you think that wasn't true?

    So hard to tell, as it is for anyone with mental health issues. I haven't picked up on anything or heard anyone else mention it.

    No, he isn't, but like I say, he's pretty brutally honest and doesn't make excuses very often at all. He says it as it is. Can't remember which game it was, but very recently he DID say he set us up wrong. Was it Ipswich? He's a very straight talking guy and says it how it is. So if he says...

    Match Thread Coventry City - Hull City Match Thread - Wednesday 24th Apr

    Evo, if you have watched Robins as manager for the last 7 years, you know he often plays things close to his chest Quite often when players are injured, the first we know about it is when we see the next team sheet and the player or players are missing If Robins says they are fatigued, they...

    Referee

    Or just use it for clear things the officials have missed, like "the player came from his own half" and foul play such as shirt pulling, elbowing, punching etc. The goal line technology seems to work okay doesn't it? Basically, stop using it for everything.

    It has to be Blackburn. Those are the rules. We're not allowed to play anyone else If we could choose, we'd all go for Rotherham obviously.

    Yeah, I knew, but my missus didn't and she was shocked. Very brave of him to go through that all again on screen.

    What happened? I don't follow the draft unfortunately. Just see who's got who after and know practically zero about college football

    This fits in exactly with my stance. I think that's outside, but if it goes to VAR, I would be saying too close to call and no obvious error and go back to the on-field decision.
