Done.
-
The last two paragraps sum up what I've been thinking since I was walking out of the ground.
-
Nobody wants to think that the game has gone, that there is corruption but I am not sure how much evidence we need .
Something is not right,it’s beyond incompetence.
-
Excellent article Dave - completely agree.
-
There have been too many over these last few seasons. We're walking proof there's a Sky 6.

Few seasons? Few weeks more like. There was a comment by the commentator at the end of the Newcastle game last week. “They’re not going away are they”. Very telling. I hate to join the conspiracy theorists but there is such a body of evidence building now it’s hard not to. Today was a total re refiing of that period of the game by a faceless official sat god knows where making a best guess.

Maybe there should be an official time limit on how far back you can go.

Great read Dave & smack on the money
-
Bang on. Let’s just guess about the ball, given the referee was standing quite close to the ball at the time!
-
Great read Dave and great to see you yesterday.
-
Has there ever been a goal disallowed by VAR, for a throw in at the other end of the pitch ? And then the game restarted at the other end of the pitch? When you combine it with the challenges on Cash and Kamara at Spurs in the first 5 minutes(brushed off as though nothing happened) and then Tielemans at Newcastle(didn't even give a foul) it makes you wonder

Nail on the head from Mr Woodhall!
-
Great read Dave and great to see you yesterday.
Thanks Daz and the pleasure was all mine.

On a minor note, concerning the pre-match build up around the ground, what struck me yesterday was how the little merchandise stalls outside the ground now all display half and half scarves as their number one item for sale.

The grab on Tielemans at Crystal Palace too.

The push on Rogers v Everton, the foul on Martinez at Arsenal.
There is a pattern.
