After the fourth round tie between Liverpool and WBA yesterday, it's become a bit of a hot potato. All in all, I think it worked well yesterday and it ensured that several contentious decisions were eventually resolved correctly. Works for me.

I think VAR is a positive addition to the game. The trouble is, how to implement it. Firstly, I think it must stay under the control of the referee. Secondly, I will repeat a theme I've brought up on a number of occasions, and that is to have matches run to a game clock, not played in real...

I'm probably not a good person to complete your survey as I don't attend football matches. However, from watching football on TV a couple of things come to mind that I suggest you might look into. Firstly, you might review the Safety Of Sports Grounds Act 1975 and the amendments that have been...

Welcome to the site, Legsy. I hope you enjoy.

OK, having gotten that out of my system (I admit, he did irritate me which does me no credit, and I won't respond to any further goading) I'll get back on topic. Sorry for the distraction gents.

Nothing of the sort but I object strenuously to offensive comments such as a "Nothing sport" which was clearly intended to be insulting and dismissive. What was the point of that..? To big yourself up..? To put yourself over as superior in some way..? It's cretins like you that get...

Oxford is around 50 miles from Wembley. New Zealand is on the other side of the world. Only a difference of about 11'400 miles. Give or take. When Oxford United take 25'000 fans to Australia, New Zealand or South Africa for a two month tour at a cost of many thousands of pounds you'll...

8 British and Irish Lions fans on tour. (with some of the 25'000 others who went with them, just for a laugh).

I'm quite sure that, at first, you're quite right. He'll want to help his new signing to settle into the team, and to see how best he can use him in the United set-up. Sanchez will get a run in the team for sure, at least in the immediate future. I'm not sure though, that he'll be able to...

I'm not at all sure that Maurinho really knows what he wants from Sanchez but I'm sure he'll figure it out as he goes along. I have heard it suggested that he only wanted Sanchez so that City couldn't have him. Some are saying that he had to make a big name signing because, well, Manchester...

Yep, another master stroke from the FA, an organisation that demonstrates how enormous dinosaurs managed to survive for millions of years with brains the size of walnuts.

Meanwhile........ The poorly motivated, badly managed and utterly talentless Arsenal have just reached the first major final* of the season. What a load of rubbish, eh..? * And just to head off the inevitable retort that it's only the League Cup and not the Premier League title well, that...

Don't push yer luck. :bg:

Oh, you bad boy. <Laughing>. Silky baiting is the order of the day, is it..? Oh well, if it's his turn in the chair, then game on.

I went to the Vic to see a match there when Saracens used it as a home ground. It was dank, cold, and devoid of any charm. Fezheads I know are glad to be out of the place. I'm sure most Watford FC fans love the place but if this 1 in 5 STH's who are allegedly staying away is true, I...

Translate that to: Rubin Kazan is expected to become the Watford's next former manager.

To be fair, I did say that Newcastle had little choice but to play the way they did at Eastlands. If you read what I wrote, I think I was actually quite sympathetic towards them, but the general tenor that the thread was taking on was one of - in my opinion - unfair criticism of Manchester City...

Getting back to football for a moment....... It's become pretty clear that City are so vastly superior in all departments to teams like Newcastle right now that they... and other opponents... are left with little choice but to dig in with everybody behind the ball and try to dog it out in the...

James Haskell has gone and got himself a four week ban as a result of his red card for clumping Jamie Roberts in the match against Quins and will miss England's first two 6N games. The tariff for his offence starts at six weeks, but his ban was reduced to four because of the back row forward's...
