    Just wondering if VAR has the capacity to do the "injury " time. Every time ball goes out of play/free kick given time stops and only starts again when ball I'd kicked /thrown in. Clearly refs don't have the time as always add on the same amount regardless of subs/fouls/time wasting

    Stevie G is really missing our Micky Beale.
    Very happy he’s with us, trust he can make the transition.

    Hopefully, the Watford game was start in the right direction of the team working as one.

    Early kick-off for football could cut floodlight costs

    Football chiefs point out that floodlights are needed when games are televised

    Football bosses are to discuss whether matches in the lower divisions could kick off earlier to save money on floodlights, among measures to deal with rising energy costs.

    The English Football League, which runs the three divisions below the Premier League, will discuss the energy crisis at its board meeting next month with some clubs fearing their costs will rise by hundreds of thousands of pounds.

    It comes as pub and brewing companies urge the government to act in order to avoid “real and serious irreversible” damage to the sector.

    Andy Holt, chairman of the League One side Accrington Stanley, told The Times: “We don’t use a lot compared with some clubs but our bills are going to quadruple.

    Can't read the rest of this as it's behind the paywall, but for those of you old enough to remember going to midday matches in the 70s it must be like deja vu.

    Also read about this at the weekend with clubs planning to go ahead with this up here

    Yeah that’s the article I was thinking of when I posted. Reluctantly I’ll follow up on the politics thread.

    Nottingham forest have now signed 21 players since the start of the off season.

    If they get relegated, they’re going straight to the non league!

    One can only wonder how much they have spent.
    Maybe Redknapp was brokering some of their deals.

    Next Manager Sacked Update!

    Brenda Rodgers.
    Currently bagging club owners at every opportunity about having no funds, to compete, hence sitting last.
