It seems that now you don’t celebrate when the ball hits the back of the net,you have to wait till the big screen tells you. What a load of shite.

Watching the Leeds v Forest game instead, Forest are getting stretched all over the pitch, Leeds very impressive. Unfortunately.

Young Harrison on the wing who was linked with us looks busy but his crossing/end product is really lacking currently.

You are either offside or you are not. You can't have just a bit offside, it is either offside or not. Be interesting to see if they review this penalty save. They did, and they have now set the standard for encroachment. (By the explanation given before the season, if the encroaching player clears the rebound it should be re-taken, so a correct decision). Norwich must be feeling a bit better about themselves now.

Premier League has turned into La Liga Two sides that generally win at a canter, one who who hangs on in there and the rest cannon fodder.

Premier League has turned into La Liga Two sides that generally win at a canter, one who who hangs on in there and the rest cannon fodder. It is already looking like that. You normally expect the top teams to start slowly and give their opponents a chance for an early upset, because of the number of players they have had away at the Copa America / African Nations etc, but the 2 games so far have been like more than gentle training exercises. Hopefully Notts County v Barnet later will be a bit more competitive otherwise I can see me watching as little live televised football this season as I did last.

Norwich must be feeling a bit better about themselves now. That has to be the most ridiculous rule ever. If a player encroaches within 10 yards of any free kick or penalty then kick should be retaken if an advantage is gained by the encroachment.

The encroaching player gained an advantage and the kick was retaken.

You kind of did, but also it sounds like there is only infringement if the encroaching player clears the rebound. Misunderstanding.

It's not 100% accurate as with most things so how they use such close decisions and call them one way or the other is just not right. Just messing the game up you can't celebrate now until VAR says. Shite way to go there must have been 5 stoppages in the game over 5 mins it's crap.

Remember England’s women being denied a goal in wc semis because her left big toe was offside. The only thing VAR may be any good for is identifying cheating in any form.

The VAR experiment will be interesting I could be a long term fan Sure it will have issues initially and we will all have to adapt to get used to them But if it cuts out diving, grabbing at corners and poor decisions it will get a thumbs up from me

All fall into the cheating category. But perhaps limit the VAR for ref decision making to 2 per half by each team captain. VAR can be called at any time by the ref if he is unsure. This stop start by VAR assistant referee is further killing the game.
