Rob Jones on VAR? No surprise he’s got involved. He is the muppet who gave the penalty at Bramall Lane. Edit: My mistake - Jones is 4th official. Darren England on VAR. Famously on VAR for the Diaz “goal” at Spurs.

Plus the fact Taylor was the ref who gave Newcastle their penalty at Molineux for a challenge similar (but with less contact) than Youngs challenge on Reyna.

It’s dreadful. Less leagues covered as well. No mention of the National League north and south play-offs that were on the fixtures list earlier today.

David Coote 4 th official Thomas Bramall VAR - Tierney Asst VAR - Scott Ledger. I think Coote reffed the home match v Chelsea and wasn’t too bad.

Thought we gave it a good go considering the injury issues. Both goals had a massive slice of luck and the first came at just the right time for them. If we’d been able to keep it scoreless until half time would have been interesting to see how they coped in the second half. Think we missed a...

I think it’s funny they are doing away with replays the season after Klopp leaves. We could have a winter break as well now that he’s gone.

Rangers get their inevitable penalty. 15th in the league this season.

Massive game at St Andrew’s tomorrow night against Cardiff.

First of all, it was a terrible decision. Probably worse than the penalty at Bramall Lane which is some going. I think one of the problems is that the still footage from behind the goal is delivered at such an angle that it doesn’t make it clear that Fabianski had a clear view of the ball as...

Feyenoord put 6 past Ajax.

Harrington sent Joao off at Brentford and ignored a similar tackle from them. Did a better job at the Fulham match at home though.

Hard to see. Despite the 3 points tonight they are a team of individuals.

Criminal defending from United at that corner. Neither side deserved to win that.

Villa are very good at buying cheap free kicks and Tierney (and to be fair some of our players) were very happy to oblige. Sadly one of those led to their first goal, but we got caught out from a similar move that Coventry had success with.

Remember that week of matches well. Should have been 9 points, both Villa goals would have been ruled out for offside with VAR. Highlight was Zubar’s Carlos Alberto like goal at Upton Park.
