If hypothetically (and this is as hypothetical as it gets), we were Spurs and Pompey were Arsenal, which way would you have leant last night?
 
Was watching the Leeds game in the pub and was sat next to group of students who were perplexed that Saints fans were singing Spurs’ song
 
You mix with some weird people.

Probably the age thing, if the guys are right and Spurs started singing the song when we first were relegated that’s when these students would’ve just been born so unless they watch many Saints games then it wouldn’t surprise me if people that age associated it more with Spurs than us

Probably. They won't have heard of Lois Armstrong either I don't suppose.

Yeah - do they really think there was a real song with Spurs in the title? Or did they not stop to think about how when you hear it with Saints in it that it actually makes a lot more sense and sounds like it could have been an original song
 
Unsurprisingly, Wolves are the club to bring forward the motion. I don't actually think it will pass though.
 
Just reduce VAR to three coach challenges per game and it will stop being a problem.
How will that solve it? You still end up with a referee in a room making a subjective decision. The simple solution is to raise the bar for VAR involvement much higher - i.e. one replay and everyone goes "****ing hell that's a shocking decision".

That is also a part of it. Clear and obvious so that you can see it is wrong - but you only get one go on each camera angle - at normal speed.
