@dr_errol @HACKETTREF I just don't get why indirect free kicka in the PA is avoided..... 🤦Same thing issue we had with 6 seconds. It's sad









@HACKETTREF @RefereeHalsey Should the referee now be suspended from their next game after this decision bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

@HACKETTREF Careless is a synonym of reckless ffs. It means the same thing

@theroyalafc @HACKETTREF A foul that isn't a yellow is just one which they time wrong or just impeded them slightly. It's not careless. If it's careless then it's a yellow, it means exactly the same thing as reckless

@HACKETTREF Well Keith against Bournemouth Sunderland had a stonewall penalty turned down by both the referee and VAR after they looked at it a few seconds later awarded a free kick for the same foul outside the box, is that acceptable ?

Leeds should have been awarded a penalty in their 1-0 loss at home to Sunderland. Sunderland's Luke O'Nien placed "his arms around the neck of Pascal Struijk in a clear non-footballing action." The KMI Panel unanimously voted it a VAR error. #LUFC bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

The same question stands, what happened to the #LFC 5cm tolerance rule? #Premierleague

Went on a bit of a rant on telly comparing how Chelsea & Sheffield Wednesday have been dealt with

#PostOfficeScandal Desperately sad news 😔 Parmod was such a lovely man in every way imaginable - RIP. Yet another SubPostmaster passes away without seeing the full just he fought for for so hard and with such dignity. Condolences to all his family 🙏

"This is a disgrace" - the former England striker is raging!!! 👀

Some of the most memorable days of my career. Giving national radio updates on key end of season games knowing that there’d be an instant reaction from fans listening at another ground. 5 Live would then cue to that ground & you’d hear it!
