Andrew 4183 Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Whats wrong with that? quicker decisions, better information for fans in the grounds. Sounds great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This should be welcomed in the same vein that goal ine technology was. I think that should have been expanded to cover all boundaries of the pitch. Do that and then dispense with VAR.

sammynb 2929 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Is it just me or are others unenthused by this year's world cup? Between 1974 and 2006 my country didn't even qualify, but every world cup from 1978 I've looked forward to and watched as much as possible. But this year, even with a terrible Australian team qualified, I'm struggling to give a fuck. Anyone else feel like this? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 13806 Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 Yep. It's certainly a summer event, it's so cheapened now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 12736 Posted July 7, 2022 Author Share Posted July 7, 2022 Aye, I’m struggling with it but I’m also more focused on the season starting and Newcastle atm. I suppose, if Ashley were still here, it’d be a welcome break from the complete misery of the season but if we’re doing well, it’s just an inconvenience. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arnold's tactic of hang out for a draw and win it on penalties won't work in the group stage, useless cunt he is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be blaming those that came in and promised we'd copy the Netherlands' blueprint from grassroots to the top. I would also blame those who came in and started the new national comp. Id also blame those who decided to charge a fortune for kids to participate. There is a lot wrong. You should enjoy this one because I don't think we'll be participating in too many more going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 38556 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 The Scene; A Sweet Factory in Fawdon. 3a.m. A tired, weary and mildly sweaty HMHM trudges in to the break room, takes off his Oompa Loompa suit, slumps down in a hard plastic chair, and wearily pulls out his phone to have a look on TT. Everyone is asleep… there’s fuck all happening. Suddenly, a notification goes off. Its RobinRobin, posting gifs from the other side of the world, when he should be concentrating on sorting out defence cases for Bogans. HMHM smiles a weary smile, and trudges back to the shop floor to make more sweets for the nations children, a warm glow of fellowship keeping him going. “ He’s a good cunt, that RobinRobin, later, lolz!” 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was about 20 years ago. He reckoned you couldn’t steal anything in terms of getting stuff off the premises but you could eat stuff in the production line. He claimed his record for a single shift was 25 Lion Bars 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The draymen always took a fair bit of satisfying which always baffled me, knowing their itinerary and length of their shift. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
