    Stop the clock

    That's different though isn't it. This will kill time wasting. It won't kill teams trying to stop the momentum of their opposition. 55 mins is outrageous though and stopping the clock would clearly, definitely help in that regard.

    Women's Euros 2022

    Yup, it's an unfair comparison. Only last year we beat Latvia 20-0 and we play against so many very poor international teams, scores in double figures are not uncommon. White has had so many more much easier opportunities to score. She's a an excellent striker in the women's game, but there is...

    Stop the clock

    Yup. That needs sorting urgently. It's supposed to be in part, about clear and obvious errors and if it is not clear and obvious within 20 seconds, it's not clear is it.

    Millwall Away Trains

    There have actually been trains running on every strike day from Coventry. It's just been a much, much reduced service.

    Stop the clock

    It's still in its infancy. Once they sort it out, it will work just fine. Nothing wrong with the technology. It's the people operating the system and how they interpret it

    Stop the clock

    Yeah, but they are not playing an extra 35 mins are they. At the moment they are only playing for as little as 55 mins. Whichever way you look at it, we pay good money to go and watch football games and deserve much better.

    I do still prefer Breaking Bad, but it's a very close call. The characters are richer and fleshed out more on Better Call Saul.

    Stop the clock

    Yeah, I get that, but I don't think it would add on all that time, because once players see the trying to delay the game isnt working, there is no point in doing it. I think it should at least be trialled. See if it makes things better or not. Obviously would be best to trial it at a lower...

    Stop the clock

    I find it quite laughable that at the moment we have the equivalent of a Masonic handshake going on, with the crowd having absolutely no idea how much or little time is going to be added on. It's like this one big secret that no-one is privvy too. At the moment, all the time wasting is...

    Stop the clock

    Yes. Because if you are trying to waste time, faffing about with a goal kick, or a corner, or free kick or a corner, you are achieving absolutely nothing. What's the point trying to run the clock down when the clock has stopped?

    Stop the clock

    And just how many times have we as fans gone "5 mins added? That was way more than 5 mins wasted."

    Stop the clock

    Not sure you can though. As an example, if someone wants to feign injury when they are substituted, to waste time, they can hobble and limp off instead or walk off. When it comes to corners and throw ins, you can stop, wipe the ball, ask the ref where to take the throw in from/place the ball...

    Stop the clock

    I had to look at that several times and still had no idea what the whoosh was. Only just got it now, two hours later. 🙄

    Stop the clock

    So what about a 90 minute game only actually lasting 55 mins. That's beyond absolutely ridiculous too, surely Edited to acknowledge idiocy.

    Stop the clock

    55 mins is ridiculous. I am all for anything that stops timewasting and keeps the game fluid and the ball in play.

    I think we had the same boss.

    USSR invades Ukraine.

    It's a massive advantage for Ukraine on home soil and it also seems the Russian soldiers morale has not been great at all in general either. Raw recruits who were told they were on a training exercise etc.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I always remember working for this boss who had degrees coming out of his eyeballs. He was highly intelligent. But a complete idiot.
