Not sure how you could work this in football but in ice hockey if you challenge and you're wrong your team gets a penalty - which means you're a player short for 2 minutes. End result is teams don't challenge just because they hope something will be found, they are 99% certain any challenge is...

Been a lot of talk about frame rates, which is 100% a problem because the maths simply doesn't support the level of accuracy they're applying. But there's also an issue of camera angles, they're essentially drawing lines based on guesswork as the camera is rarely dead in line. Posted this...

Any mention of when they're going to get season tickets on sale?

The latest generation of scanners (the type you walk through) can supposedly detect small amounts of drugs. Not sure if the ones they use at the O2 do that but they definitely detect other things and have replaced searching everyone. You literally just walk through them without stopping and they...

This is the key thing for me. I've been saying since they brought it in the maths doesn't add up. You simply can't get the level of accuracy they're using it for. Quite surprised this hasn't been picked up on more over the last few years as is something factual rather than claiming the...

Have to leave this one up to the management team to decide who physically and mentally are in a position to be starting tonight Going to be hard to get them up for this after the weekend, just hope people don't get on their backs if we're not 3-0 up in 30 minutes

its never going to change if when anyone suggests peoples pay shouldn't decrease in real terms the response is get a new job, train for something else, spend less money or something similar I think as a basic rule of thumb anyone who is in full time employment should be able to afford a half...

Just been watching some NHL ice hockey videos so shameless stealing a couple of things they do for season ticket holders, something maybe the club could consider Before the final game of the season there a random draw for season ticket holders and the winners get a match worn shirt from the...

https://sotn.newstatesman.com/2024/04/the-real-labour-poll-lead Found this quite interesting. The could be worse responses seem to give some weight to the idea that it's more a case of people not voting Conservative than having any great desire or incentive to vote Labour. Obviously they will...

I didn't use my mobile ticket as I'd printer one out 'just in case', were they tap in or did you have to scan the QR code? if its scanned no reason they can't be used next season. TM clearly has the functionality and the readers at the CBS work on barcodes now so you'd think it's easy to...

Few years ago when there was a bit of a push for an actual living wage before the government hijacked the term and used it for minimum wage Whitbread claimed that if it was brought in they would have no choice but to significantly increase prices. Group of economists ran the numbers and if every...

Rugby tackled him and the goal still stood

Robins isn't really one for sentiment but if Kelly and Godden are off and its a nothing game they should both play and get a decent send off. Both have been here a while, especially the way players move in the modern game, and have played their part in our move up the leagues.

the worst ones are on live games where they won't give their opinion until VAR has come through so they never say the officials got it wrong

Someone from the bands management company should get onto the club and get some 'official' shirts in the club shop ASAP. They'd fly out. Got a couple of old Enemy tour t-shirts, one is a sky blue shirt with Coventry on it and the other is Subbuteo players in sky blue.

They also said on the radio, stated as if it was an accepted fact that everyone knows, that the VAR system uses AI to enhance and sharpen the image. Is that correct because I've never heard that mentioned before and adds more to the potential for a margin of error.

Cricket has umpires call because there are decisions that are too close to decide with the limitations of the technology so they don't overrule the decision on the field.

Same in NHL ice hockey. To overrule a call on the ice the video review has to show conclusive evidence.

This is how they get you. My divorce was hassle free until my ex saw a lawyer on her familes advise 'to check things over' and the lawyer decided she was due way more. Got legal advice myself but it was essentially you're in the right but its going to cost you £15K plus to fight it and even then...
