    VAR

    Jesus, I’m not looking for a fight. I didn’t ignore anything. I didn’t address it because I 100% agree with you. If it’s a definitive binary decision (Hawkeye/snickometer/goal line tech) then there’s no argument. If it’s a subjective decision, then someone will argue with you. Subjective...

    VAR

    I wonder if fans would like a system in tennis or cricket where each club gets 3 VAR reviews per game? The referee would make all on field decisions, and if a manager is unhappy with a particular call he can send it to VAR for a review. That would limit VAR to only six interactions per match...

    VAR

    Personally, no. I want them to improve VAR, not scrap it. I realise that I’m in the minority with this.

    VAR

    Absolutely. It is the “subjective” aspect of VAR that needs nailing down. I’d rather that they keep working on it rather than completely scrapping it in its infancy.

    Flawed manager. Did well for us this season. Both can be true.

    VAR

    There is nothing wrong with the hardware/software with regards to VAR. As always, the problems lie with the baboons that operate it. Technology integrates into sport with ease if done correctly, look at Hawkeye in Tennis, look at DRS/snickometer in Cricket. Notice that we never discuss the goal...

    There are two time periods to consider here. The time period before the ruling, and the time period after the ruling. The two points credited backed to Forest was for the time period before the ruling. This was based on them being cooperative leading up to the ruling. Once the ruling was...

    6 + 2 Point Deductions

    It’s truly astonishing how many people can’t understand this concept. The two points was awarded for their initial cooperation, the right to appeal was always still available afterwards. Hell, you can get sentenced to 25yrs for murder, you still have a right to appeal the ruling.

    Dyche; A Great Achievement?

    Currently two points from top half of the table (obviously, without deductions). He’s done a great job under awful conditions.

    The first 5mins of this is Gary Neville talking about Everton and Goodison Park, some really nice words from him, it has to be said.

    The Premier League need to pull their heads out of the sand. If they are planning to change all the P&S rules in the coming 12mths or so, then this is an acceptance that the current outdated rules are not fit for purpose. To put this whole debacle behind us/them, they need to return all...

    The frustrating thing about this whole mess is, for us personally, it ceases to be an issue if the lads could just win a handful of games. That bothers me more than being docked points, just win some bloody games and put this abomination of a season behind us. 🤬

    2023/24 Sean Dyche

    Rio Ferdinand injured himself by hyperextending the tendons in his knees whilst playing on his PlayStation. He had his legs up on his coffee table for hours. Probably my favourite “freak injury” story.

    I assumed that this thread was started because Danny Murphy was very complementary about us this evening. I was very much mistaken.

    Jude Bellingham congratulating Lewis on his Instagram post is a lovely touch. Everton fans telling Jude to come and join Everton. 😂

    All we have to do is to out point Luton by two points over the next 24 games. They are not overcoming the vast goal differential we have over them, if anything, it’ll get worse. As long as we keep Sheff Utd and Burnley behind us, we’ll be okay. I still think we’ll get some points back as well...
