Not just for you, I'd say the majority now.

Majority of people never, those were the ones who were screaming for VAR, now they've got it, they don't want it.

Sky and the media have caused this issue by over analysing, dissecting and forensically analysing anything and everything.

If this carries on, I don't know if I'll ever go back to watching football live.
I agree Sky do overdo the analysing.
But its the poor reffing That’s the main problem.
I was for VAR but it’s the way they use it Or don’t use it ( monitors)that’s the problem.
You can be the width of a shirt offside but they can’t see a headlock.
 
Am I missing something this season with the kit selection. Team in Red vs Team in Blue...nope that needs one of them to play in pastel green or pink or lemon or something else!

It's so the clubs can justify selling second and third kits to fans. They have to wear each one for a certain number of games. I mean, I don't know if there's a rule on that or whether they just feel they need to in order to sell them, but along those lines anyway.

Remember when Watford were in the league, they wore their away kit most weeks even though practically no one else wears yellow.
 
Everton made to look very average today, Southampton have played very well, picked Everton’s pockets too easily at times, is it ‘normal service has been resumed’?
 
I think it’s just about safe to comment now.....

Have been impressed by the boys today. Overplayed in the middle a little at time and would still drive Redmond to any ground in the country if a club came in for him, but very happy with a well controlled performance.

Extra pleasing with it being the anniversary of 0-9 (cheers For the reminder Sky)!

Your boys have been clinical up front, well drilled elsewhere. They are a good team, no question.
 
Another unexpected result really. I'm glad I'm not a betting man when it comes to football these days, everyone who does accumulators must be tearing them up every week. Everyone beating everyone in this league.
 
Just seen the digne red card..... And it's got me thinking.

After copious amounts of moans about VAR decisions being made badly, would it not make sense to have ex players in positions of decision making? The people they have in charge now clearly are not fit for purpose.

Yeah that was not a red card at all. He didn't even dive in he was just running and stood on him accidentally. Every bit of contact with a stud doesn't have to be a red. Agree with Jamie Redknapp, yellow at worst.

I think it could go either way tbh. He may not of meant to stamp on him as he did, but he had every intention to foul him. He had two goes at it. The old hands raised in the air as the legs connect is always a give away.

He might have been thinking it but he made no motion to foul him in that incident, he was just running to catch him up. He was very unlucky. Be honest, if that was a yellow would you have been screaming for a red? Probably not.
