Sticking with the concussion sub though and one that means you don't use up one of the allocated 5.

They are also trialling where the refs can speak to the crowd to explain a VAR decisions and looking more at how time added on was used at the World Cup

Can anyone decipher what they actually mean? And has that changed from earlier?

Incidentally our very own Matt Wild was on the panel.

 

[Tony Towner]

16 charges, found guilty of 12
Panel gave him the ban, FA appealed, but it was rejected so ban remains as is
FA exploring whether there's anything else they can do

 

[Tony Towner]

Yep

 

[AndyWolves]

I read it as the fa disagree with the independent panels findings, is that correct?

Going back to our mate Marriner…

8 subs last night. Fans holding the ball. Three yellows, couple of injuries and general timewasting… 5 mins added.

I don’t understand this reluctance to add time on. The refs point to their watch when players complain about it but then barely actually add any of it on. It’s probably the thing that winds me up the most, because bad decisions you can get over, but simple timekeeping is objective and inexcusable.

Tsimikas took an age to take a corner near the end. Just tell him 'take as long as you pal, it's all getting added on'. If you don't then they'll carry on doing it. And it definitely isn't 'part of the game'.

 

[Tony Towner]

I get the reluctance, but just make it the amount of time the ball is in play. If that's 30 mins each way then so be it

 

[sycophantia]

Should be more punishment for obvious time wasting. If the ref thinks they're taking the piss, he should be allowed to award the free kick, throw in etc to the other side.

Thiago and Bajcetic when they were subbed too, soaking up the applause and Marriner was pointing to his watch but only as a token gesture

I swear he tried to call time with 20 seconds left on the clock The tv pictures made it look that he changed his mind when our lads complained that it should be a free kick.

 

[Tony Towner]

I thought that too

 

[SSB]

What do you expect from a Villa fan.

Watched it back on iplayer today and the commentary team thought he'd blown for full time too

Jesse Marsch teddy’s very much out the pram about media coverage in this country and all the false stories. Unfortunately losing a lot brings unwanted media attention I’m afraid.

Cardiff City tried to insure Sala for £20m the day after his death - court​

Unbelievable.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Jesus.

They really are scum

I might be in the minority here but I think allowing drinks into seats will be a bad call and only because of this bizarre trend of ensuring you throw your pint in the air when a goal is scored, which will transfer from the fans park to the Stand imo

On the rare occasion we score, folk in the South Bank will be going home soaked and stinking of Carling.

 

[Stan Hullis]

Yeah I agree, really against the idea.
