    Clear red. Getting fed up with shit decisions.

    [Football] How to fix VAR ?

    The argument for consistency is at the heart of the matter. Whether it’s players kicking the ball away, stopping a quick free kick or shouting in the face of the ref. The context for both Dunk and Haaland was that they thought the referee had made a mistake and told them so in flowery...

    [Politics] Brexit

    And even if all the boat people are sent to Rwanda, immigration is still hundreds of thousands more per year than it was before Brexit. That wasn’t how taking back control was sold.

    [Football] NCS’s most talented footballer?

    I played for a local pub team in a Sunday league as a keeper. I scored a goal with a punt upfield when playing on a school pitch that was nowhere near the official pitch length.

    [Technology] In Ear Head Phones

    I use JBL Tune 110. Cheap as chips but fit my ears very well and sound great. For me - far better than other options costing 10 x as much.

    [Brighton] Open Mic Night

    From time to time there are Open Mic sessions at the WaterBear venue in Brighton https://www.instagram.com/waterbearvenue/ Or if you're in Austria this Thursday, there's a great Open Mic at Homebase in St Joahnn.

    [Albion] Dunk - straight red?

    Before the red Dunk was walking away, then offered as handshake - he wasn't arguing.

    [Albion] Dunk - straight red?

    If a referee uses VAR to give a penalty (not given in real time), we need to see the video they used to make that decision. If Dunk is sent off for saying something naughty, we should be told what he said and why this attracted a red card while what appears to be similar behaviour from other...

    [Misc] The Award-winning official "More Snow Tomorrow?" Thread [2024-25 Season]

    About 50 cm of fresh snow at village level in the Tirol yesterday and overnight. More forecast for the next week with cold temperatures and most resorts pumping our artifical snow. 10 pistes in Kitzbuhel and a handful in Leogang (in the Saalbach area) open this weekend with most resorts...

    [Politics] Brexit

    The EU got rid of the so-called Tampon Tax last year. When the 5% VAT rate was cut in the UK only 1% of that saving was passed to consumers. Another Brexit benefit. https://www.theguardian.com/society/2022/nov/10/uk-retailers-not-passing-on-tampon-tax-savings-to-women-report-says

    [Politics] Reshuffle news...

    Not fact. I support PR because it minimizes the chance of ANY team winning. And the less power politicians have, the less they can f*ck up.

    [Politics] Reshuffle news...

    It’s worse than that. Sunak stood in a vote to be PM, and lost. But he’s PM anyway. So even the bits of democracy we do have don’t work very well.

    [Albion] Penalty?

    Defender turned his back and stuck his elbow out. In today's climate that's a penalty.

    [Music] Music from the Netherlands

    Focus was a great prog rock band from the Netherlands in the 70s. A band by that name still exists run by Thijs van Leer, the original keyboard/flute player (and yodeller). My guitar hero as a teenager was the band's guitarist, Jan Akkerman.

    [Albion] Offside?

    I did ask for an image BEFORE the ball is kicked. Showing the wrong frame and trying to guess from there is wrong.

    [Albion] Offside?

    If that’s the best image VAR gets to work with we are f*cked

    [Albion] Offside?

    Can you please share the image that shows it was offside? Prefereably an image taken before the kick was taken, and not so heavily pixelated you can't differentiatied an arse from an elbow. Thanks.
