I logged in at 12pm and was amazed how many had already been sold. I was offered seats high up and I was close to ordering them and thought I'd check on aviewfrommyseat and found the view of the goal at the far end is obscured by the roof of the stand to the left. Just be cautious when buying. I en...

If you come off after 5th goal you can get on no probs, wait till final whistle and it's quicker to walk back.

The 5th goal and final whistle came at the same time... So that was a walk back after the 5th goal

Why didn't he send them off by the shortest route instead of allowing them to saunter along to the half way line? They never do. The only time that happens is when its the losing team making the sub. The 4th official just couldnt work that board and it gave them a excuse. You could see him saying h...

We had another home abandoned match in vaguely that era, caused by floodlight failure. Might have been a cup tie. (NOT the Scarborough cup tie abandoned after the full time whistle (frozen pitch) but replayed at Turf Moor because they hadn't been able to play extra time.) Ive never been as cold as ...

I was locked out of The Longside that day so had to stand on the Bee Hole. It was horrible.

I willingly stood on the Bee Hole that day. My friend had his young son with him, just before it was abandoned he joked he could be done for child cruelty we were all so wet

If I remember rightly, it was 1-2 when it was abandoned after 65 minutes or so and we won the rematch 4-3. Wasn't it the one where Tom cowan scored an overhead kick? That was abandoned for floodlight failure, caused by Norweb not by the club generator fortunately! The game where Cowan scored his ov...

Those weren't given away, they were atrocious decisions.

Similar to at least the one at Old Trafford then present day. Unfortunately theres no footnote on any result saying that and they were given away... I dont disagree with you by the way

clarets1978

Yep, spot on. If you think back to Dyche’s survival teams, there’s no way we give away two late penalties. Did we ever? There was no naivety about us and those potential points would be in the bag. You can’t just rely on beating ‘teams around you’ either. Once or twice you have to collect unexpecte...

He did apply the rules, the player doesn't have to leave the field if a card is given for a challenge that makes them need treatment.

Did the same for Anthony in the 2nd half as well so he applied it correctly and for both sides

Totally agree with the OP. I’m slightly bemused that some people think it wasn’t a stonewall penalty…. In the ground at the time, I absolutely thought that it wasnt but obviously watching it back it definitely was. Im guessing its the people who havent seen it again.

Totally agree with putting a time limit on VAR reviews, but in relation to all review types. For subjective decisions, a clear and obvious error should be determinable quickly, otherwise they should be deemed not clear and obvious and the original decision stands. You know what argument they'll com...

clarets1978

I agree with most of what you have said, but I'm not arguing against that. I'm just stating that the people who said the image shows Foster to be onside are incorrect. As for VAR ruling Foster's goal out, it didn't; the Assistant Ref ruled Foster's goal out. VAR had the final say though so effectiv...

Interesting for the first incident that Bothroyd thought Walker should have been given a red card for it while Gallagher said there was a foul and the game should have restarted with a Man U free kick and not a dropped ball. I don't think you are being cynical to be honest, but it's difficult to ar...

The two things difficult to question are goal line technology (their first goal) and offside (our disallowed goal). PGMO have confirmed they sent out the wrong image and I've not seen what they should have sent out given that SSN mysteriously had technical issues showing it. But it is a factual dec...

clarets1978

Foster was offside though… According to Dermot Gallagher on ref watch, They showed the wrong still for the offside and he agreed that the one we'd all seen he was onside. They then promised to show the correct one and all we got was a black screen because Sky were having "technical difficulties" an...

Not sure why you'd want to incur such huge costs for something that doesn't generate any money for the club..

In the FAB members defence, they clearly are not going to change the clubs mind on this issue whatever they say. They would have to be deluded to think otherwise.

The club said the FAB reacted ‘positively’ to the changes. If this was not the case and they have been publicly misrepresented, any normal person would resign in protest.
