Re: Thomas Frank

I joked at the time that the Burnley players were asking the ref to see if VAR would give the penalty as it would at least give us a chance to try to stop them scoring.

It’s getting a bit of a circus now with Warnock. Done some cracking jobs but I think it’s time to bow out. He seems to be playing up to the ‘coming out of retirement’,’only works from February’ and ‘permission from the wife’ too much in interviews. That would have annoyed me if I was an Aberdeen fan.

Just taken another look and he could well be in an offside position but it's Adam Smith who plays the ball and not JBL so couldn't have been offside.
