t was an astonishing decision. I was playing at right back and this left winger was a cocky, horrible little sh-it, - we had crossed paths and swords before.

The ball was played down the wing, went out of play down by the corner flag and was dead. The "impetus" of my sliding tackle had not however reckoned with the ball going out of play.

The result? The cocky, horrible little sh-it needed urgent medical attention for a ruptured Achilles tendon and I got sent off despite my skipper's protest that the ball was out of play and therefore dead.

VAR stinks to high heaven and how was that not a penalty for us last night?
