I've always wondered why football doesn't adopt the rugby method. There is probably some good reason that I don't know about. I can't think of a good reason why they don't adopt it. It could absolutely rid the game of time wasting and cancel the advantage that the dark arts cheats benefit from.. It’s all about control “they” want to keep it (timekeeping) vague and random so “they” can dictate an outcome (of how long to add or when to implement time wasting sanctions) based on “their” interpretation on the day - used to infuriate me when x mins we’re added but the stadium clock stopped at 90 - simple independent clock stopping policy (for all dead ball situations IMHO but would settle for a subset) would ensure we, the paying public, get closer to 90 mins of actual game time rather than the 50-60 we see week in and out.

I know you're right of course - just feels like it's become almost a default run in to.the end.of the season and its somewhat tedious - indeed they ought to be a great side with the money that's been spent- that said I find the style of play mechanical and boring with only a flash of excitement and true flair coming to the fore - it is true that I've fallen out of love with the game in recent years and pine for another Leicester to happen - think it.may never happen again truth be.known There’s enough money in the premier league for at least 6 teams to win it. The teams with the best management are winning it. It’s no fluke I’d like to believe this is the case but can’t see beyond the Manchesters with Liverpool (who I think will struggle post- Klopp when a few of the remaining stars will also exit) and maybe perennial bottlers Arsenal - Chelsea are in a recovery that may take half a decade or more and Spurs haven’t replaced Kane …. Would love to see Villa continue to compete under Emre ……….or Brighton perhaps - but it will be as you were no doubt and the Leicester thing a once in a lifetime event….

Citeh win another title almost by default again - boring and annoying in equal measure - Villa can hopefully push on but think the Shit will be more a formidable proposition under Ratcliffe next season…….Klopp and Arteta serial bottlers - that said, Citeh due some major FFP sanctions surely……. You win the title by finishing top, not default Not been at their usual best but still a great side I know you're right of course - just feels like it's become almost a default run in to.the end.of the season and its somewhat tedious - indeed they ought to be a great side with the money that's been spent- that said I find the style of play mechanical and boring with only a flash of excitement and true flair coming to the fore - it is true that I've fallen out of love with the game in recent years and pine for another Leicester to happen - think it.may never happen again truth be.known

…..looking at houses in Trentham……..?? Liam Cundle or Luke Cundle.... Sirhail has confused me. ….sorry, was a pun on Trundle who was a Swansea player who was often touted for a move to Stoke and was regularly seen “looking for houses in Trentham”…. You can no doubt tell how bored (and old) I am…….!

In Walters we trust, probably he could step up and manage the team I’d vote for that …..with TP as DoF ….. get the band back together again…….

70 minutes of a mega important game and not a shot on goal SS OUT …sadly I think this is something we must consider……. Clearly struggling to motivate and tactically naive. And not learning from his mistakes…..

It's irrelevant, the replays clearly show that the keeper had one hand on the ball when he drops it on Ennis head It shows two hands on the ball It does but NOT at the moment the ball comes into contact with Ennis’ back where he lets go with one hand - goal should have stood…..

I may be wrong but I’m pretty sure that the 2 hands on the ball thing is only an issue if an opposition player intentionally knocks it out of his hands. There’s no difference to my mind in what the keeper did here (giving away the ball himself when not under a challenge) and it just slipping out of his 2 hands. Goal all the way for me. It's irrelevant, the replays clearly show that the keeper had one hand on the ball when he drops it on Ennis head Correct - just seen replays on Sky and yes he has 2 hands on the ball BUT releases one hand and then allows the ball to hit the ascending back of Ennis who pokes it home - a clear goal. And what about the clear foul on Ennis as he was pulled back - a penalty surely?

Oh look another replay in slow motion clearly shows both hands on ball when it hit him. Jesus wept guys! Take the blinkers off. Don’t get me wrong I think the ref took the cowards way out but rules states it’s not a goal and I will leave it at that. Jesus wept STFU…..
