Cheers,it will be other things that stop me. The lack of lifts and step free access everywhere here is mind boggling. Apart from the trouble attending the game the mither has continued. Today i had to actually stay on a train past the main station because the train i was on was arriving on a platform with a broken lift. Earlier the same happend on a tram.shocking really.to make matters worse i arrived at the airport at noon check in only to find like a dick i have booked our return for the 22nd of MARCH. Eurowings had seats on todays flights but wanted 500 euros a seat. I expected a fee for my error but not to the tune of 1500 euros. I asked how many seats they had,by now its an hour to take off, i said surly youd rather sell for 100 euro each than they fly empty. Nope "would rather it be the total fee or nothing".So sorry mate I didn't know

I found on like a flybe flight tonight at 9pm,450 quid for all of us. Thank goodness,well except wheelchairs have to be submitted 48 hours before the flight. The flybe girl was so helpful but couldn't confirm untill check in opens around 7 pm as its ground staff that handles this sort of thing.
Just been told we are sorted and can fly :)
Ive been on some bloody trips but this one has been a mission.
Will be home by 10 and up for Wembley tomorrow morning at 7 am for train.
At least it will be step free lol.

" VAR decisions at Schalke v Manchester City explained
Thursday 21 February 2019
https://www.uefa.com/insideuefa/about-uefa/news/newsid=2593061.html
VAR protocol correctly applied for two penalty decisions during yesterday’s UEFA Champions League round of 16 match with emphasis put on “accuracy over speed.”
Two VAR reviews led to penalty kicks being awarded during yesterday’s UEFA Champions League match between FC Schalke 04 and Manchester City FC (2-3).
Both instances occurred during a period of approximately 10 minutes in which a technical issue experienced by the VAR technical supplier impacted the ability to deliver replay images to the pitchside referee review area.
When such a malfunction of the system occurs, the IFAB protocol allows for the VAR to describe to the referee what can be seen on the TV replay(s) but not tell him the decision that should be taken. The referee then makes a final decision based on his own perception and the information received orally from the VAR.
In regards to the first decision, the inability to access the incident replays at the pitchside review area led to a delay in reaching the correct decision to award a penalty kick for a handball offence, while the VAR orally described the situation to the referee to allow him to make a final decision, and for the referee to then provide an explanation to the two team captains to clarify the circumstances regarding the pitchside review area and the decision-making process
The second decision was also correctly made on the basis of the Laws of the Game (Law 11 – Offside) which stipulates: “if a player in an offside position is moving towards the ball with the intention of playing the ball and is fouled before playing or attempting to play the ball, or challenging an opponent for the ball, the foul is penalised as it has occurred before the offside offence”.
The images in the picture above - taken at the exact same moment from two different angles - clearly show that a foul is committed inside the box before the Schalke player could even attempt to play the ball and hence such offence must be punished with the awarding of a penalty kick.
Commenting on these two decisions, UEFA’s Chief Refereeing Officer Roberto Rosetti said: “I am pleased that even without the possibility for the referee to review the incidents with his own eyes, the excellent cooperation of the team of officials led to correct decisions being made.
“It must also be underlined that – and as is described in the VAR protocol - accuracy is always in principle more important than speed when reaching a decision. Clearly, last night’s technical issues had a big impact on the time taken to reach decisions, but we are fully aware that reducing the time factor is key to the success of VAR and we are doing our utmost to make reviews as quick and efficient as possible.
“However, what we ultimately want is correct decisions in such match-changing situations and this is what we got yesterday.”
UEFA will also be addressing the matter of the technical failure with its VAR technical supplier to ensure that such issue does not happen again in the future."
They where never going to say any different but their own rules are 100% clear and that is only the on field ref can over rule his own decision and that only after reviewing footage of it.
Fucking whitewash but never expected any different.
I'm not sure if it's been posted - only just got back this eve - but here's the official UEFA explanation, which should keep the thread going....
