One thing irritates me has to be AVAR - Why can't they simplify the offside rule to say - If a part of either foot is offside then offside stands - otherwise not? lets face it currently it is so confusing with players being given offside for their arm/backside/knee etc etc being 2mm in front of the defender - what happened to the rule that the attacker should always be given the benefit of the doubt, and as Bamford said after having a goal against Palace chalked off for pointing to where he wanted the ball playing, you can't score with your hand so how can it be offside??
Anyway - good luck for the rest of the season - we are trying to emulate your situation from promotion to now, and fingers crossed it seems to be working.
ps - My Mrs team is Southampton who you beat last week - thought you got the luck there too - The penalty for handball against their defender from 2 yards was ridiculous, but then the ref didn't give the more obvious one against you from a free kick taken 30 yards away - VAR/Referees are killing the game IMO
Can't wait to get back into the grounds though - fingers crossed for next season.
