Our man Trezeguet is on the bench.

I was all for technology being used for obvious mistakes, Lampard goal for example, a player being a yard offside, a missed clear foul, type things as officials can miss things especially with the speed of the game. It's, imo, bullshit though that it's deciding games on a player being offside by a mm or the ball brushing someones hair.

If they bring in Snicko for Premier League VAR, I can see Unai ordering shaved heads all round

We're the new CB pairing.

I can't be rooting for Oorstralia, I only see Smith and Warner and the Fanatics.

[Dogtanian]

So close!

[Dogtanian]

It’s a goal! 

[Dogtanian]

Should have been 2-0!

[Clampy]

It’s a goal! 

Is that you doing the WM goal horn?

[Mellin]

Our man Trezeguet is on the bench.

Laaaaad.

It’s a goal! 

Is that you doing the WM goal horn?

Not heard that in years.

Why is Hassan Kachloul that old?

Only just heard them say on the beeb that it’s him.

Before the game I wondered why Andrew Ridgely was in the studio offering expert analysis on the World Cup.

[Dogtanian]

Brings back memories.

[andyh]

Wasn’t it also Radio WM that had the ‘goals - live on the air’ announcement ?

[Skipper_The_Eyechild]

According to the BBC, apparently they are contemplating bringing the England game forward to earlier on Sunday due to potential storms.

Hope it's 10pm here. The Starmer/Gammon/Police paradox will explode!
