I went for a piss when Michael Johnson scored against Derby. There were another 3 blokes in there. Mid stream we all heard the roar and burst out laughing. Typical City.

Post Pearce era no?

Yes. That was the first goal we’d scored at home all year though. Svens first home game, beat the rags next game.

So the fucking rat faced little woman thinks his team deserve to be in the top four.How is that newsworthy?Talk about inane,irrelevant content to pander to the unwashed!?I think that the greasy gobshite deserves his head taking off his shoulders for the way he treats the game,but just can’t find the airtime somehow!At least I have this platform though..

You couldn’t. I saw it the other day, it’s like 3 blokes from the pub who talk shite, never been to a game & regurgitate bollox they’ve seen in the tabloids.

BEIN are just talking Qatari shill bollocks. As far as I’m aware, it‘s down to the on-field officials to make a call on the ins and outs on the side of the pitch.

To my knowledge, I’ve never seen VAR overturn a ball out of play for a throw. Anybody seen otherwise?

Var can check if a ball is out of play, but it's obviously really difficult as the cameras aren't set up for it.

The guy who comments of VAR reviews for ESPN is interesting - says they confirmed it wasn't even considered as Madrid regained possession after. Also says Wenger wrong when he said there was a chip in the ball - UEFA apparently don't have one. And also confirms that BEIN made up the graphic without having any tech that could do it accurately.

The presenter is a comedian called Ian Stone. Arsenal fan. He used to do the rounds on the comedy panel shows on TV.

They have two guests each week, who tend to support lower league teams more often than not.

It’s pretty shit but I don’t find it too offensive normally. The bloke the other guy is on about was a Blackburn fan, who was trotting out the lines about how boring he found watching City.
