    Ok, help out a Southerner…I recognise the dark brown thing on the right as a pie, but what is the lumpy beige stuff on the left? And what has the woman in the 2nd photo got on her head? 😁

    The Footie Thread

    Has any changes to the way the game is refereed ever made any improvements? They all have good intentions but they all seem to make the game more complicated. (Genuine question as I think you said you were a qualified referee?)

    Of course it wasn’t, just like handball should never be looked at in slow motion, it always looks deliberate in slow-mo. A Quick Look by VAR at normal speed is all that’s needed, if it’s badly wrong then overrule if not then the on-field decision stands… a sort of “Umpire call” if you like.

    TV Series - What Are You Watching?

    Yeah only 4 episodes in and I love it already… Another series which is dying a death for us is Star Trek Discovery, I’m a fan but this is obviously written for a different kind of fan… Zoomers! 😁 It’s all gone a bit too “emotional” for me to carry on much longer!

    TV Series - What Are You Watching?

    See I like to savour stuff, finished Loudermilk tonight…taken about 2 months, gutted there are no more series! and the Gentleman at the weekend, I think taking it about 1 episode a week stopped it getting boring. Still got about half a season of Saul left and just started Gamorrah! Slow and...

    Same with all Thames Water sites, you must park facing the way out.

    Think the forum is crying out for a thumbs down button, it might cut out some of the pointless counter posts…👎
