I've already said its not about a goal kick, it's about a missed handball. The goalkick is pretty irrelevant in terms of whether var should have been involved. And I made no reference to arms being behind his back, they could very easily be besides him as the other 2 players do. Have a great week

Genuine question to all those criticising VAR on the offside. If that was us instead of Man U, and Coventry had the goal (correctly) ruled out for offside, would you be coming on here complaining or would you be saying it's the correct decision ? It's an absolute shame for them, and would have been a brilliant ending, but it was offside, and it's pretty irrelevant whether its 5mm or 5m offside. Same as if the ball is or isn't over the line. 1mm or 1m is the same outcome I hate VAR, wish it was never brought in. But surely people can't moan when the decision is as factually correct as it can be??

Grealish arm 100% isn't in a natural position when jumping in a wall. I know that's my opinion but nothing will change that. I've done it 100s of times and I've never stuck my arm out. Because there is literally no need to do it unless trying to make yourself 'bigger'. Plus the referee did make an obvious error as he said (through actions) that the ball didn't strike anything on the way through. That is factually incorrect. The VAR should have said, hang on a sec, you've given a goal kick as you didn't think it hit anything, it did, it hit an arm. Probably best to take a look just so you can make the decision based on facts. It's not about the corner/goal kick. The ref didn't decide it shouldn't be handball because his arm was in a natural position. He just didn't see it was handball. That is a clear and obvious error. I don't necessarily think the AWB decision is wrong in isolation. And certainly wouldn't expect VAR to overturn as seeing the reply I certainly wouldn't. But it definitely wasn't as obvious as the Grealish one.

Nope

Wait, so you agree Grealish shouldn't have been a penalty but Wan Bissaka should? Grealish who was stood 10 yards away, with the shot starting from a 'stopped' position so no instinct reaction. When stood in a wall, the arms really really do not need to come out to the side. And to make the VAR decision worse, the fact a goal kick was given, the ref clearly thought the ball didn't hit anything on the way through, with is factually incorrect. On that basis they should, at the very least, inform the ref that ball has hit an arm on its way through, which you must have missed, so probably worth just taking another look. Absolutely terrible use of the VAR process. At least let the ref know it's hit an arm so he can then make a decision based on what actually happened rather than what he missed.

Hi Jerry, With the legacy number initiative just released, I have a relative who's pictured (Billy Pocock 219 - year 1919) which our family hasn't seen before. Do you know if there is anyway I can get a copy of this rather than just a screenshot? And any other photos of him the club may have? Thanks.

I've spoken with you a few times when you've dropped the programmes for us at Cadbury and always admired your honesty when talking of Hengrove and their 'limitations' (I mean that in a respectful manner). I think you'll be okay this season but will be tight finish for a few teams. If we're honest, everyone is stuck with guessing what the FA/leagues will do and whilst I'd expect at least 2 to go down, I guess there could be a good number of changes next season with the rumours you've heard. I still maintain that with the Prem division having at least the same amount of Cornish teams next season, it'll make for an interesting set of play off fixtures

I don't think they are mate. Been very quiet on it and Div 1 are definitely* relegating 3 teams. That doesn't seem to me like they'll be losing 5 out of Div 1 but then restructuring steps 5 and 6. Plus you'd normally have loads of strong rumours from some good 'in the know' people by now. Could end up having all 4 teams in Div 1 play off trying to lose

Let's not make anyone a scapegoat eh!?

'Hi can we have some shirts made up for stocking in club shop please' 'Yeah how many?' 'Dunno, 1 of each size should probably be enough for now'

Showing as 2 tickets left in the whole ground ?!

Yep

Pearsey was always on borrowed time as soon as Llewellyn went in as assistant. The 2 statements they've put out are embarrassing
