    I agree but we all know that’s not going to happen unfortunately. So as all tight calls get passed to the video ref to double check, might as well make the criteria as subjective as possible without the need of several angles to decide who’s fingernail is the longest.

    Technology should be available for lasers to beam across the pitch, that only zap you if you’re actually offside (might need some type of chip inserting under players skin, but shouldn’t be too obtrusive)
    Onside - it’s a goal
    Offside - electric shock burns the offending player, and lights flash like a goal in ice hockey.

    No imagination, the FA.

    Could combine your laser Idea with the pre match pyro.

    Would be a genuine deterrent to getting caught offside,

    And next weeks katsu bbq roast comes pre cooked and from sustainable supply.

    Genius!

    Nice casual racism there assuming cannibalism would be Japanese cuisine…

    Your choice of dressing mate.

    I'd go for a gammon roast myself.

    Or a brisket.

    Guess it's a lucky dip depending on the fixture?

    They rotate the menu don't they?

    Deflection now. You chose to use Katsu. Of all the things you could have picked, you chose Katsu. Don’t try and claim it’s not intentional.

    Hahah. So what's my preconceived subconscious anti Japanese bias?

    I haven't watched or shown interest in this since David Coleman was around. This choosing a short list is also nonsense IMO, it should just be opened to everyone.

    I would be interested to know what Rory McIlroy said to them why he didn't attend.

    The shortlist prevents the BBC from having to big up someone that doesn’t fit their ‘exclusive’ I mean ‘inclusive’ agenda.

    KJT would have been a worthy winner.

    An electrode on each testicle would stop those persistently caught offside. Not that we have ever had such a frustrating player at City.

    The BBC don't decide the shortlist or the winner, the shortlist is decided by a panel of sportsmen and women from a variety of sports and the winner is decided by public vote.

    I agree, maybe if Broad had turned up in his underwear like Earps did he'd have had a better chance?

    Not sure how reliable the public vote is. On-line voting detects multiple votes and just allows one, mobile voting appears to allow as many as you like, presumably 'cos BBC are getting a share of the 15p call charge.
