VAR has killed the game.

Are you a Reform politician, by any chance?

Nope. And whilst I would say I’m not a fan of politics on what’s supposed to be a football related forum, I’d also say that there’s not a single political party I actually trust!

Stop bringing facts into this. Rumour and unfounded suppositions are the way ahead.

He’d be wasted in the Saudi League, but totally get why someone would do it for a couple of years and earn all that tax free cash.

Just waiting for someone to say Gordon’s done it deliberately to leave Newcastle even shorter of strikers this transfer window and so stopping Isak being sold…..

You shouldn't need VAR for she-ite tackles like that. Never mind a red card, he should be done for assault. Only one thing on his mind when he set off on that run - fellow professional's career at risk with that.

Over reaction of the night

Seriously? He’s scraped his studs down the back of Van Dijk’s calf.

1. Only red card I’ve actually seen this weekend.

2. Yes, the game has gone soft IMHO.

3.

Softest red card seen all weekend. The games gone soft.

B. I hope the Saudi’s stick to their guns and keep him whilst not playing him.

Our season won’t be defined by the games against the top 8 or so (where I expect Spuds to be). Our season will be defined by the results against the bottom half. Beat the those at the bottom and you won’t be there yourself.

Really growing into the game.

Foster looks to have lost a bit of weight. Looking really sharp

I’d rather he banged goals in, but I’ll take the sharpness for the moment!

If Foster starts then we have failed in the transfer market massively.

Nothing like a good bit of UTC outrage where it’s completely unneeded.

To be fair, Foster is terrible.

If your enjoyment of sport is solely about the quality on display, you’ll be forever disappointed with women’s football. They’ll never be as good as men. I can still enjoy a game of amateur football, kids football, women’s tennis, an F2 race or a Championship game, even though the levels are way be...

Used to happen Yates Wine Lodge half a century ago not a new thing

Surely not the one on the corner of St James’ and Manchester Rd? Can’t remember that when I was 16.

I’d add that there’s no table service in this very ropey sports bar in Trowbridge…!

What’s with this weird new trend of youngsters standing behind one another at the bar / pub, rather than queuing all in 1 mass? When did this become the norm??

Lack of pop up ads is amazing.

Threads about video doorbells (et al) less so!

Sounds like a classic b0ll0cks social media post done nowadays but yoofs with far too much time on their hands.

I'm sure we'll be more cautious than gung ho on Monday. It suits us to play that way. But with Foster unavailable we lack a threat in behind on the front 3. We do look a better team when we squeeze higher up the pitch. It doesn’t suit us though. Look at today. Tried to see out a win v 9 men, and ve...

Jesus that refs a claret haha! Not red cards imo

But they have both been yellow cards. Not the refs fault that they’d both already been booked!

Not at all. The only people losing the plot have been the Watford players.

Won the top prize in about 2008 or so, plus the occasional £10.

And still get an option on away tickets.

Permutations:

Win v SU
Need 1pt from 3 games

Draw v SU
Need 4pts from 3 games

Lose v SU
Need 7pts from 4 games

A great view of it!

Can anyone tell a moment when a short freekick or corner ever worked out?

Is it on the red button?

I was a little disappointed that the Beckham-esque shot didn’t go in! If only as it was a central defender shooting!

Trafford's was yet again stupid. Is that 8 now? He's risking a 2 game ban at a crucial time.

Exactly. And I didn’t realise he has 8 (or so) bookings. All he has to do is leather the ball upfield if we want to waste time.

I’m more concerned that some people think it’s normal to eat 3 packets of crisps in the 1 sitting. And we wonder why we’re a fat country!
