Whats wrong with following your home town?

Was your team in red?

I saw a bloke wet himself on a night bus.

If that’s the level this thread has got to.

And it was still not as embarrassing as that audio clip.

Was once on a national express where I was sitting next to a guy that had escaped from a mental hospital. In Birmingham the police boarded the coach to drag him off.

On the coach he was throwing bird seed down the isle to imaginary birds. He seemed just a bit of a nutter and I thought it was an over reaction. Turned out he had stabbed someone !!

I often wonder what happened to HowlingFanTodd

I have a vague suspicion that this thread has gone a little astray.

There’s more follow-through in this thread than there was in Jones’ tackle.

“The VAR will also have to confirm the outcome of its check with the assistant VAR before informing on-field officials of the final decision.”

Imagine, this wasn’t ALREADY a protocol. Fucking inept wankers the lot of them!

Also, verifying with on field referee the call.

It’s mind boggling that Webb hasn’t been sacked with this proof of his ineptitude.

Makes you wonder if there are protocols in place throughout Europe…

“The PGMOL also said it would reiterate that the speed of decision-making must not be at the expense of accuracy.”

Dont worry everyone. These guys are so on the ball. They’ve got this sorted.

The language should be precise and concise. No cross-talking, no “mates”, no thank you great process crap.

The military, emergency services, truckers, other sports, have all developed very precise language for talking over a radio/headpiece.

Instead of Hooper saying “well done boys, good job” -
He should have used the same 30secs to actually say…
“Was it a Fucking Goal… Or Not - ya Dickeads” :0)
