Case in point: Burnley vs Bournemouth PL game about 4 or 5 seasons back. Bournemouth scored, before Burnley were allowed to kick off to restart play VAR checked a possible infringement in Bournemouth’s penalty area a minute or so earlier. Bournemouth’s goal was chalked off, Burnley awarded a...

It's the linesman's job to flag offsides and work in tandem with the ref. Personally I'd rather see VAR ditched and go back to accept the fact some ref's calls may be incorrect. Another thing that has appeared recently is the amount of added time allotted when a 'big team' is behind by a goal...

I can only speak to the EPL but VAR is a joke, there's no question in my mind VAR is bias towards the 'big teams'. It was brought in to help ref's with so called 'clear and obvious errors'. Coventry's winner was chalked off because the guy was deemed offside by a toe nail???? That's 'clear and...

It won't be long before my beloved Burnley are confirmed relegated from PL to Championship. In all my years of following Burnley I have never witnessed such a terrible season, utter rubbish week in week out. :mad: This past Saturday's laughable own goal by our Kosovo goalie Arijanet Muric sums...

Brilliant to see Everton survive on the final day with a 1-0 win over Bournemouth. I'm not an Everton fan per se, but Sean Dyche, Burnley's ex boss was brought in to steady the ship a little and see them safe, he did the job he was hired to do. Everton also have 3 ex Burnley players in their...

Man City certainly tore Real apart yesterday, very impressive performance. City play a formation very similar to what Vincent Kompany has installed at my beloved Burnley. It wouldn't surprise me if Pep hasn't made the short trip to Burnley to discreetly observe Vinny's training sessions...

My beloved Burnley yesterday secured promotion back to the PL with 2-1 away win at Middleborough. With 7 games left we have a 9 point lead over second place Sheffield United, whom we play at home tomorrow. A win tomorrow will give us almost an unsurmountable 12 point lead so first place will be...

As far as I'm concerned the big clubs can pi$$ off and start their own league, good riddance, let the other clubs carry on in more competitive leagues. How on earth can you say footie works well as is? EPL is dominated by 3-4 clubs, Newcastle will be joining the 'have' clubs in the near future...

Yes sir, these are exciting times to be a 'Clarets' supporter. Gone are the high wage earners from the Dyche era, those that remain have found a new lease on life under Kompany. It's really amazing how dominant we are Championship level. Kompany brought in many young, hungry players mainly from...

For the last 2-3 years I've been trying to persuade Tiny Fit Nikki to make a road trip to K/W for a few days, I'm sure she'd do very well here. Alas, she doesn't appear interested in leaving Orillia. Yes, over the years I've read many posts about her quirky personality, but I'm sure it would be...

That livery was first introduced in mid 60's on the Gulf Oil sponsored Ford GT40.

As expected Man City have been crowned PL champions. More important........WAY more important......... my beloved Burnley have secured PL status for a 6th consecutive season thanks to 2-0 away win at Fulham :D Not too shabby for a little Lancashire town, population circa 75k, working with a...

As far as I'm concerned the so called Euro Super League clubs can bugger off and start their own closed shop league, good riddance! But those clubs should no longer be allowed to compete in their respective domestic leagues or Cup competitions. Sure, it'll dilute the talent available to...

Great to see Mikey back in the winners circle, the fist pump walking up 18 knowing a 2 putt would win it said it all. (y) His $337 k winners cheque is his biggest golf related cheque for quite some time. I was sad to see Daly rinse his ball though, always loved watching JD play, he still gets...

Vijay did his best NOT to win that Canadian Open. If memory serves, didn't Mikey 'rinse' his ball on #18 at Glen Abbey to hand the title to Vijay?

Yes sir. It's crumbling :D

9 Manchester United players, plus 3 club staff and a number of journalists lost their lives. Many players were injured, some recovered to play again, but most never played at the same level again. One survivor was Bobby Charlton, later to be Sir Charlton, one of Englands' best ever players...

Glad you're doing ok in retirement. How time flies, it only seems a few minutes ago we communicated via text ;) Oh, btw, the vacuum is still sucking well.....lmao :ROFLMAO:
