I'm not sure what remains wrong. The rule clearly defines what "influence on play" means - its not open to interpretation. Whether its a daft rule or not, at least its clear and unambiguous.
VAR would've been interesting. Given the amount of debate even after the incidents have been micro-analysed though, I wonder if it would have made any difference. I think both penalties would have been given, and Lawro would still disagree with the first as he hasn't read the rule-book.
Nope - you're wrong. here's the definition of having an influence on play:
*** Apologies previous poster! did not see you had posted exactly the same thing! ****
Kane did not do any of those things to become active. (he still dived though).
I can't believe the motd pundits, but for different reasons. The first penalty was NOT offside (the pundits reckoned it was). There's no debate about that, the rules of the game are completely clear that if the opponent plays the ball, the attacking player is not offside. The fact that Kane was...
Agree with this. Solicitors will try and create conflict in all manner of things you'd never even thought of. The more conflict they can engineer, the bigger their bill basically. Unless things are really bad, you don't need them at all. Have a look at the various online fixed price services...
We also never score from any ourselves - and we should do, given the aerial power we have at our disposal. For some reason we've got the tactics all wrong with corners at both ends. Maybe we could recruit a short term set piece coach.
One thing I've noticed on this (and I know I've gone...
Rodrigues apparently said something to Bong - racist comment perhaps? The ref reported it to the 4th official and it may be the subject of further action. Ref making the managers aware of the allegation.
The only things I bother with in HD are the things where I feel it actually adds to the experience. This tends to be football, nature programs (Blue Planet etc) and things with nice scenery (Countryfile etc). Other than that I stick with the SD because of the ball-ache of having to change...
What happens if there's absolutely nothing contentious in the game on Monday. The players have probably been asked to dive around and cheat a bit to give it a good workout.
Its bizarre isn't it. They are usually empty as a result. I cant understand the economics of this. It reduces the efficiency of the motorway networks too with most people leaving the motorway to find fuel increasing the congestion at the junctions.
Yes - its wonderfully formulaic - the detective's sudden vision, based on some random thing said by somebody, the explanation of the crime and then the way they invariably confess or breakdown in tears, ending it all nice and tidily.
