    We should not let this go, the game is corrupt to the core

    Well the current rules and procedures are bonkers, and like you and everyone else I think changes to VAR are needed. But my pictures in the Toenail Poll thread speak for themselves. The momentary offside was technically correct, which has helped me to live with what happened rather than...

    He wasn't I'm afraid Pete. Have you seen my screenshots in the 'Poll' thread?

    The no loans strategy

    Ayari being a bit of a flop might have influenced his thinking. But even a couple of underwhelming loans might have allowed Robins to give a few people a rest here and there.

    Toenail Poll

    I couldn't say for sure, but in all honesty it does look more than that. Maybe 4 or 6 inches rather than 2 inches in old money. The margin of error should be more. I think the simplest explanation is that the VAR guys (with access to far more precise tech than me) got it right according to...

    Toenail Poll

    Maybe I can help. I am sure that Haji was marginally (and very briefly) offside. The screenshots below are taken from the YouTube video from the reverse angle - . On a PC (not a mobile) you can use shmmeee’s nice tip to pause the video at 17:38, then press full stop to advance frame by frame...

    VAR needs an overhaul

    As someone who supports VAR in principle, I find this 5 minute conversation completely bonkers and unacceptable. They are playing around with centimeters when the lines drawn for offside should be a foot wide, with any overlap meaning onside. Give them 20 seconds max to announce a decision, if...

    New number one needed

    tbf you can see Collins gesturing to Thomas to clear it sideways. Did he do more than just gesture though, because if that's what he wanted he should have been screaming it too. Never did understand the people who thought Collins was miles better than Wilson. I would describe both of them as OK...

    VAR needs an overhaul

    If they change the rule to the moment when the ball leaves the passing player’s foot, 9 times out of 10 it will disadvantage the attacking side. On this occasion the existing policy ruined our day though.

    VAR needs an overhaul

    There are temptations in forever moaning that we were robbed, but Haji definitely looks offside from this angle. A couple of frames later and he's miles ON, but at this moment a line through Haji's left foot would take you roughly to the linesman's foot on the far side of the pitch. If anyone...

    Peter Bankes needs investigating

    The opposite I think. You realise that if you move, Haji won't follow you?

    I've often wondered how the minds of conspiracy theorists worked, so thank you for providing this insight.

    We NEED to appeal that.

    It has happened plenty of times under the old methods when referees get into lengthy discussions with linesmen.
