Now, I have an "O" level in English Language, so I know what I am talking about here. And I am struggling to see what I have failed to understand.

Agree totally with VAR - bin it, along with all technology except a watch and floodlights (oh, and an oven to warm the pies up).
Are there any plans to roll VAR out in the lower leagues yet? Why should clubs like Burnley be the only ones to have to put up with it?
I also have an 'O' level in English Language, however, you have taken that statement out of context because it was BT who said that out government was clueless for not allowing millions of fans to attend games and I was pointing out that it was worldwide and that all those governments did not have a clue so, in BT's reasoning, it is a shame that etc. Okay you read it that I am sayng that people should ignore directives and I should have made it clear that this was not my thought, however, in the context and knowing that BT thinks it is all a con job this is possibly what should happen was my meaning.
I use common sense and I retain a sense of humour, unfortunately, so many take life so serious these days but they won't wear me down.

VAR and technology is here to stay but still remains in the realms of the haves for the moment. It will only be a matter of time before it filters down to the wannabees but I doubt that it will ever reach the realms of the no-hopers who will be really affected by this virus episode.
I see that Sheffield Wednesday will start next season with a 12 point deduction for financial irregularities and yet Wigan have been already deducted ---all very strange because Wednesday would have finished rock bottom on 44 points which would have meant that Charlton would stay up ---I think!
