  1. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC535985/ I think this backs up the need for technology ! We now need seamless graphics like Hawkeye or snicko and ball trajectory . I can’t work out who is manhandling the ref in the black and white photo , easy to recognise the Leeds players who would usually be hands on !
  2. It is election year πŸ˜„
  3. Scores from open play to start WHU revival , now 3-1 !
  4. Moyes falls apart when the team starts losing , did it at MU and now WHU second time round again …
  5. Even Fergie struggled with man management in the modern world , Sancho is a new player again after he left MU , coaching is more than a system !
  6. The old farming puns for the tractor boys πŸ˜„
  7. Moyes available probably along with JWP πŸ˜„
  8. Jwp joined in at 45 mins ings a bit later to no avail !
  9. It's a bit like film where there is a gap between images , JFK being shot film a classic case . So how good is modern technology ?
  10. https://computervisionblog.wordpress.com/2013/06/26/visual-illusion-saccadic-masking/ At a driver awareness course (to avoid 3 points) saccadic masking was introduced to explain why you could turn your head and swivel your eyes to look up the road and not register a motorcyclist , for instance . Sounds wierd but to avoid you getting dizzy or seeing a blurred image while your eyes are moving the brain waits until your eyes have moved before showing an image . (I think that is the explanation!) It could explain why we all see things different at a match including the officials of course. This effect has been know about since 1890 ! They noticed if you looked in a mirror and moved your eyes left to right you didn't see your eyes move . An observer could see your eyes move but you can't .
  11. Norwich 0-1 down meanwhile!
  12. He seems to be fading in WH eyes although gets reasonable ratings , has been subbed a few times and not started once or twice but came on at 74 mins .
  13. We all enjoyed that game , never seen the home crowd so happy at the end of a St Marys match πŸ˜„
  14. What about Poch at Chelsea loads of top price players who just gave up long before it became a 5 niller πŸ˜„
  15. Barca denied a goal to take a 3-2 lead against Real as they don't use goal line technology in Spain ! The one piece of tech that seems to work , they use useless VAR though πŸ˜€
  16. With no VAR the game goes on decision made . VAR introduces delay which disrupts the game and fails to give a definitive decision .
  17. The replay showed that the defender took out the attacker without touching the ball so total failure of VAR and Ref .
  18. They could paint their boots with a grass toe cap design πŸ™‚
  19. Although Brooks has been given the all clear after his cancer treatment it’s possible he is not 100% in all aspects ? Or it could be he is being played out of position , Lineker didn’t do well at Barcelona when stuck out on the right wing by Cruyff .
  20. Would Baz have saved us ?
  21. Looks like time for Plan B πŸ™‚
  22. Apparently although on BBC commentry they said it was a red then gave a story that the Ref was only threatening a second yellow so it wasn't a red before the true story came out !
  23. Re FA Cup and money for lesser clubs , I thought the gate was 50/50 plus the bonus for each round of the FA Cup so not difficult to make an adjustment for smaller clubs now replays are history.
  24. Vera Lynn , kind of relevent today , Taylor Swift also very popular but is terrible to listen to . At least Vera had the war nostalgia !
  25. Tella and JWP starting tonight , meanwhile Villa now losing 3-2 on agg 2-0 on the night (as they say )
