One thing I must add is that when I watch a game as a "neutral" I don't mind VAR much and may even applaud the "technically correct" decision. But that's because I'm not invested emotionally in it. And football caters mostly for TV viewers now ....and i'd bet that many millions of those fans...
Bin it purely because I have lost some of the joy of celebrating a goal. I preferred being annoyed about a "wrong" decision after the event.
I expect AI will go on to ruin the human game of football further.
This is a bit niche I know 😄 but a family member is looking for participants in research, to complete her doctoral thesis. If you know anyone who may be interested can you please forward the details below to them, many thanks.

I love football because of the glory, the drama and the panto villains, so..... I shall definitely be watching this one! Cheering madly for City without any irony (normally can't stand them). I hope Grealish plays as I used to dislike him but now changed my mind, so come on Jacko play a...
Yes I remember that day and the film. When we had a "fire safety" video at work that showed it pretty much in full some 30 years later, I had to walk out because of the emotions.
Shockingly sad day.
You'd think people who do this kind of work would appreciate and love nature but in my, admittedly limited experience of them, they often seem to just like...... being destructive.
Hang on a minute isn't this different seasons? The 4-4 Orient was my last game at the Goldstone before I went off backpacking. York was season before when were relegated? Goes off to check Google v memory....
edit - sorry, brain fog. I gotcha.
I don't remember that much about the first game (obviously as it didn't last long!). I was a good boy and stayed in the North and watched as I was worried that getting nicked would affect my job. Was there a clip of a fan on the pitch that was on a tv clip that said an emotional "I LOVE the...
The "deals" with the USA and India are complex and confusing to laymen so I imagine "you see what you want to see", as usual really when it comes to politics.
The Hunt with Mads Mikkelsen, I used to work in an environment where staff were vulnerable to false accusations (thankfully not children).
Eden Lake, made me over think this type of situation for a while.
Glad the club have done this while he's still alive.
Deserves a Knighthood, in reality.
Only time I've been in his presence he was losing his shit with the ticket office staff at Hove station, so it wasn't the moment for me to say Cheers Mate 😀
An Albion God.
Changes, changes, changes how is my pee brain going to keep up? V strange that a technology is brought into the game and then continual adjustments made as we bumble, make it up as we go along. Clueless leadership.
According to Zoe, your stomach microbiome love chili pepper so I do try to always have some hot sauce in the fridge. I'm cheap n cheerful so current favourite is a Lidl peri peri ripoff that I love adding in quantity to my beans on toast.
Seem to remember he wasn't a big keeper but certainly a "springy" one. One of the team from my first season 87/88, I can probably still name that whole squad. Fantastic memories.
