The extra time we get now is just one step away from ushering in a game clock.

We effectively have it already (hence the increase in added time) and it's killing a lot of the time-wasting >>> Good thing.

Regardless; making an announcement will take no further time.

A lot of decisions will always be subjective , but at least pre-var we knew the ref just called it as they saw it , and mistakes were more understandable and forgiveae.

They weren't being forgiven/forgivable(?) any more than they are now.

Bad, costly decisions don't get forgiven or forgotten.......

I like your opinions. A lot.

I remember Nico Claesen too, must be circa 87/88? Although I can’t remember if he was any good or not , I do remember thinking he must be good with a name like Nico Claesen.

86/87 after the Mexico 86 World Cup. He had a great World Cup and got to the semis with Belgium. He was very quick and could finish. I loved that team under Pleat. That was my favourite time as a Tottenham supporter.

Stopping the game so they can make announcements....next thing we'll be having time outs and tv adverts...it's the thin end of the wedge allowing American sports ethos encroach on our game.

How can you get an X for that post?! Ridiculous

I think it was justified because a) we’d struggle to attract a top tier one at the time and b) they don’t really exist.

If we get CL football with Ange (looks eminently possible) I’d like to see a forward who moves the needle come in. Doesn’t necessarily have to be a CF but our forward line needs more quality and we need to do some future planning round Son.

Airfixx - I respect your views and normally have a good laugh at your comments, but I am just not a fan of VAR . I appreciate a lot of people like VAR , or consider it to be a work in progress, or like the technology but not the implementation… .

But for me, I think VAR is a stinking pile of shit.

I preferred watching games in the stadium and on tv without VAR. And I also understand that things change and that I’m a miserable old bastard.
