    The dwarf was wearing a white shirt last night chalking off a Stoke goal incorrectly and awarding the home team a pen for a foul outside the box:emoticon-0138-think

    The ref at WBA made a howler as well giving them a pen for a Peltier handball well outside the box<doh>

    And yet they walk amongst us.

    Surely they have VAR for European games? Perhaps that type of incident is not in the VAR brief? But it should be.

    I don't understand why Stroud disallowed that Stoke goal - ridiculous decision.

    As the jack keeper went to throw it he hit the Stoke player on the head with his elbow as he was getting up which dislodged the ball out of his hands - the Stoke player didn't even know he was there.

    Cast iron error by the keeper and a perfectly legal goal chalked off.

    Was the grass too long and the dwarf didn't see it?

    Sheff U docked 2 points for next season presuming they’re back in the championship.

    Just saw the headline so don’t know for offence, presumably FFP but could be for employing a scruffy scotch hoolie<whistle>

    Defaulting on payments to other clubs in 2022/23.

    Should get another 10 points for employing and playing Twatty McTwatface.

    It's been mentioned on the Brum Match day Thread Bethan. I think that there's one or two that could do with some discipline.

    I've said it before, if an attacker were allowed to smack a defender who held them back with a 'professional foul', they'd soon stop doing it.
    It would bring a whole new meaning to the term 'taking one for the team'.

    So, today I have bitten the bullet (not our manager) and have agreed to take Mrs Brizzle to watch her mob against 'Uddersfield...

    Coughed up £33 a bloody ticket.... Just hope I get my monies worth and see plenty of goals from the Terriers <laugh>

    Whatever it is, it's leaving a rather bitter taste in the mouth right now...

    Trying to offset it with a quick pint of Underfall in the Cottage around the corner from the stadium at the moment....

    So Wrexham USA make it into division 3.

    From what I’ve seen of them this season, they’re flat track bullies. Big step up for them next season.

    You said that at the end of last season <laugh>.

    Anyway, congratulations to them. If Mr Jenkins can do a Swansea at Newport, perhaps we'll have all four Welsh clubs in The Championship for a season or two. At least until our next adventure into the "big time".

    And so another nail gets hammered into the coffin of the beautiful game in favour of pandering to the 'elite' clubs again.....

    Of course a midweek replay against Rochdale is going to be more strenuous for the likes of Erling Haaland, Mo Salah and Mason Mount than say jetting off to play Atletico Madrid for the 20th group game of European competition!!!

    The more this kind of thing happens the less interest I retain in the game.

    Couldn't agree more. The "elites" backed by middle east money and the media, are now running and ruining the game.
    Wasn't part of the charm of the cup for a small club a draw at home followed by a replay at a big stadium? No replays is crap for the lower league play and their fans. It makes me nuts that the "big clubs" that have no real interest in the cup anymore, are calling all the shots.
    It's all wrong.
