I get that. But the offence is encroachment, not the circumstances in which it occurs. But if the keeper comes off his line before the kick but it goes in, there is no advantage gained If Assignon had entered the area before the kick taken and had got to the saved kick first and cleared it, then th...

I didn't even realise they checked encroachment on VAR, and if they did do they do it for every penalty. The offence is encroachment itself (cheating), not the effect it has. When the check was happening the screen said “Possible encroachment” and as it was saved, I think everyone assumed it was fo...

Definitely should have been given. The thing that really bugged me yesterday was VAR spending some minutes trying to prove that Muric had moved off his line before the pen was taken.....when was the last time you saw that checked? The premier league is a shitshow! The screen said something like Ass...

Keeps timing out and generally very slow again.

Fair few left their seats in the JMU after the 3rd when in just before half time. Thought it may have been them coming for early ht but when I went down at half time, it was pretty quiet on the concourse and was served straight away (still out of potato pies though) Did leave around the 80min mark -...

Mrs CM and daughter are due to see 'Take That'. It has been rescheduled for AO arena now.

There was an event that was due to be held in the Fanzone recently that had to be cancelled due to not having a licence for it.

It’ll be because of that

Mrs W was meant to be going with a friend next week for Take That but will now be going to AO Arena instead.

As burnmark says, you do wonder why another venue was needed

I’ll have look again. Maybe I’m thinking of a different match! There were 3 “touches” by WHU players before the ball went in Gakpo shot, hit Ogbonna on the 6yrd line, which Soucek blocks on the line and as it’s coming out, hit Areolaand goes in As grimsdale says, correctly attributed as Areola OG

Managing a Premier League squad must be like the wild west, egos, opinions, stories, leaks, drama, behaviour - it must all go on and must make a manager's job a nightmare. At times I also sympathise with the player’s perspective. Not just at PL level I’ve the same problem with my u14s :roll: :lol:

I’m not going to dignify some of the comments on here by quoting them, but I really do despair at the mentality of some people that seem to think it’s ok and “just bantz”

I didn’t recognise Charlie Austin.

Surprised Swindon allowed him to be a pundit at the game tbh considering they had a game today

Obviously didn’t do any harm as he scored 2 and was MOTM

Only think I could suggest is getting the 2 that are two seats apart on same row in NU8

I’m sure people would move down one so you can sit together

These are really annoying when they are given, the defender doesn't have to move out of the way and usher the striker through.

Does saying “Premier League players” mean they have played in a premier league game, or just that they are at a premier league club?

Zaroury has not played a full 90 minutes since 9 March, in fact, he has only played in three matches since then and just for a total of 90 minutes as a sub.
He has not played since his 14 minute appearance on 6 April, missing three games in total.

He’s been out with a groin injury

Coventry are 9 points behind with 2 games in hand. Win them and it's 3 behind with 2 games left.

I wouldn't call it nothing to play for.

My mistake. Hadn’t realised they had 2 in hand

Even better then

"Sammie" looks like he's kept them up single handedly. The unexpected win at Leeds probably does it, unfortunately, although they're not safe yet.

That's a goal if the rule is that 'over the line' means (a) 'where the fabric of the ball makes contact with the ground and is not touching the line' but not a goal if the rule says that (b)'any part of the sphere is overhanging the line at a 90 degree angle.
