Does it really count as "going viral" when in fact it's mostly people laughing at you?

It can't be long before there's a breakaway movement of countries that start their own organisation and world championships. I suspect that if this year's finals turn out as we fear then it'll be happening very soon.

Before it came in, people mostly wanted it. It took about two uses before everyone realised it was a nightmare. They've fiddled and fiddled with it but it just gets worse. I agree - it's fine to get rid, stop de-skilling the officials, and go back to a ref, two linos and leave it at that.

*don't firebomb Stockley Park, btw!

When they start using it for corners, yellow cards, throw-ins, etc I feel certain that one day there will be a massive pitch invasion after the frustration over a 3 minute wait for a corner to be awarded builds to boiling point.

If somebody firebombed Stockley Park I doubt many would cry.

Cheer up, Alex. You'll love the Champo! All those grounds you've never been to, all those teams playing their Cup Final because it's Spurs. The massive points deduction when you go bust and a couple of years in league 1. Taking more away fans than they have home fans! It's great. No, really... #lufc

The Colorado one is a weird, woo-woo type who does things like crystal healing, reiki, various "natural health" stuff that doesn't actually work and that rich American women pay an absolute fortune for. The Vegas one is just strange. Both are well-off and the type that think it won't affect them.

I haven't, but the two American women I know (one in Vegas, one in Colorado) really well are both absolute Trump nuts. It's so very strange.

This is true. The perfect example of across the Atlantic. That lunatic still has about 40% approval FFS.

Mine would be "goals scored by Leeds United at Wembley since 1996." I feel reasonably confident on that one.

Did you all fill in the recent FSA survey about VAR? A great chance to tell the authorities what fans really think.

Yeah, the lesser of the two options.

Let's cheer on Wham tonight - loads of tickets for that!

So we get an away draw to tonight's game, Wham v Brentford .

Could be a lot worse, could be a lot better.

Very shortly. I'm listening on 5 Live. It's the first time I've listened/watched the Cup draw in many, many years!

I was yelling "pass right" at the telly - so I'm claiming an assist.

It takes me around six and a half hours under normal traffic to get to Norwich. It's taken over eight before but I once did it in just over five and a half! Always worth the visit though! ๐Ÿ˜‰
