Surely that rule will disproportionately favour prem teams? Shouldn’t be surprised I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Say it goes to a two legged semi final, first round a prem team are at home and a decision goes against the away side from outside the prem following var, the game gets drawn and in 2nd leg the home team (from outside the prem) miss out on a decision due to lack of var, there seems to be a clear disadvantage? i could be over thinking it mind!

Doesn't get used in two leg semi finals when a team doesn't have var right? Didn't get used at the ethiad for our game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IdliketoRogerMoore Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 What is the ABBA penalty system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
22A Posted June 9, 2018 Report Share Posted June 9, 2018 Elsewhere; for the last few years, clubs from Wales, NI and the RoI have been allowed to take part in the Scottish Challenge cup. Last year TNS (Wales) & Crusaders (NI) both made it to the semi finals! This coming season two English clubs are taking part by invitation; Sutton Utd and Boreham Wood. Two questions; have these National League teams been invited because they should be easy to beat or because that is the standard of football outside the SPL? How many Sutton fans will make the ten hour journey if drawn away for a mid week clash at say, Elgin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I read somewhere when it was first introduced, was that it makes it a "fairer" way of taking penalties. So in other words, the modern day footballer is an emotional little snowflake, and we must try and find a system that doesn't put them under too much pressure. Next week we discuss how if a team goes 4 or 5 nil up before half time, then the team that is winning must play with 9 men, and the goalkeeper has to have one arm tied behind his back.

SecretSam Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Nothing wrong with VAR. In fact, it could add to the game, if done properly. Right now, it's not done properly. Let's see how the WC pans out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JBFC II Posted June 10, 2018 Report Share Posted June 10, 2018 Interestingly there won't be seeds in the first 2 rounds, much fairer in my opinion. And also means we could draw rovers in the first round... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s be honest players try to blame losses on everything bar themselves and this was the attempt to stop that. Alas it didn’t work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
