I guess I’ll get stick for asking but, why is “the higher the better”?

In many cases the death penalty would be a far easier punishment than a prison term. Why make it easy for an offender?

But how much light - is 1mm enough? Where has there to be clear light? Do arms count, armpit, big toe? - all the same arguments as there are now. Personally I like the idea of giving the attacker the slight advantage that changing the offside rule would give but the idea that it would make VAR...

I really don’t see how changing the offside rule like this would make any difference. All it would do is change the position of the blue and red lines! You’d still get the argument that the player is offside by just a millimetre, depends on which frame you look at etc.

Just because refs haven’t had the guts to refuse VAR advice doesn’t mean that they don’t have the right to do so. “If the evidence provided to the VAR by the broadcast footage does not accord with what the referee believes he has seen, then the VAR can recommend an overturn. The final...

We’re just in the process of redoing our wills and to make sure that what we leave eventually goes where we intend our solicitor has suggested we set up a will trust. I’m not convinced personally, seems to suggest the opposite to its name, a level of mis-trust rather than trust. Having read...

Isn’t that with regards to offside following a goal being scored?

Ultimately the VAR can’t overrule the on-field referee - VAR can only make recommendations on subjective decisions.

I presume that VAR doesn’t wait for a break in play before starting to review an incident. Where they feel that the play needs to be stopped, for example for a penalty, then they can inform the ref. A number of incidents are reviewed over the course of a game that don’t interrupt play at all.

I remember reading in threads about VAR, before it was introduced, that one reason not to introduce it was it would stop “arguments in the pub” about refereeing decisions. Well you can throw that one in the bin. :clap:

Is that where you live? - if so then I’m jealous

Indeed - also green belt - a far better environment than anywhere in Brighton.

Central London, Kingston/Hampton, Oxford, Arundel, Winchester etc.

Of course there are plenty of worse places to live and work but how many of those places try to sell themselves as a tourist attraction? When we have visitors Brighton is the last place we would suggest for a night out or a weekend stay.

That 10 billion doubtless represents far more than 8% of liquid funds available. It’s like saying that someone who gives 10,000 to charity is only giving 1% of their wealth away because they own a house worth a million.

Them’s the rules.

Roll on Spring

Feels like it at the moment

The bottom of our garden!

I’d rather Villa win - pitch invasion- 6 point deduction. Do not like Spurs :annoyed:
