Much as it annoyed me tonight, absolutely not. It is not (currently) in VAR's remit to check for potential fouls that aren't given in the buildup to goals / pens. And lets keep it that way. The less involvement it has the better.

Yes, yes he did. But he didn't go down, ergo - "no free kick". This is EXACTLY why players go down easily. If they don't, then the referees are totally blind to the foul. It REALLY f***ing annoyed me (the only pisser of a brilliant night).

As an aside, my son got us a voucher for that turkish restaurant in Boundary Road, so I drove along with the doris to make use of it today. Parked on a single yellow just south of Tesco at 4.35, thinking nothing more of it, as its a bank holiday. Had a pleasant meal, returned at about 6 to find...

Its so cathartic for me to get everything back to normal. I simply cannot abide clutter or mess, and whilst the house is never messy, the living room always feels overly cluttered when there's a tree in the corner, glowing snowmen guarding the TV, and a train in the fireplace. Too much going on...

What an absolute MISSION. It took half the day for us to disassemble the tree, pack all the glowing TAT away (after removing the batteries), scale a ladder to take down all the outside lights, move the tables, lamps and birdcage back into position, hoover up all the glitter and shit, polish the...

I quite like the fact that my thread about what a diabolical spectacle darts is, has turned into the go-to thread for the tournament :lolol: Enjoy chaps, each to their own x

IF true I truly hope Hull and Liam are good for him. The Championship table is RIDICULOUS - Hull are down in 16th, but only 6 points off the playoffs and had (another) stonking away win today at Wigan. They've been terrific on the road and with 20 games left have it all to play for. Rosenior...

Its stuff like this, and the massive queues to buy a fizzy drink made by some dinlo nomarks on YouTube that make me wonder whether the human race is going to make it.

A sincere HNY to all my virtual friends on here this evening, and I'll just take this small opportunity to say thank you to anyone who has taken the time to read and/ignore my inane ramblings, and even reply. This is still my go-to site and I genuinely relish clasping you all closely to my...

Excellent stuff. Most amusing for those who know their NSC history :lolol:

I had a change of plan. Went to the local in the afternoon for a few quiet pints and a read of the paper. Then sloped back to my sofa for the game. Now I've got a curry on the way, Alexa is on, and have started ploughing into the Baileys. Warm, dry, mildly pissed off about the result but not...

What Just Happened ?! by Marina Hyde. A selection of her Guardian columns from 2016 onwards following the referendum vote (plus other big stories over the last 6 years). Hugely entertaining writer, satire at its best.

Footloose

In fairness, I've heard the spice markets are amazing over there.

See 1:48 - he types his replies with his middle finger. And given some of the bilge he has to reply to, I don't blame the fella :lolol:

In my opinion only 2 men have completely transcended their respective sports to rise up to another level and become true global icons, in the days long before multimedia television and the www. Muhammad Ali, and Pele. I am looking forward to viewing the documentaries celebrating his genius and...

I started reading this thread, but I ran out of interest. I'm going back to the darts.

I also have a BHA-supporting mate who is into pretty much every sport that comes across his screen, including NFL (which I don't mind) F1 (meh) and cycling (yawn). He's also a massive cricket fan, which absolutely eats up time, and he's very knowledgable about them all. I honestly don't know how...

Hmmm...sorry. You'd not be getting an early payout on that one. I still maintain that if darts had the same rule as football (ie NO alcohol within sight of the dartboard), then I don't care who is playing - the Ally Pally would be emptier than a remote barn in Barrow hosting 'an evening with...
