1. How the Barca game has remained at 0-0 at half time is a fucking miracle. A total and utter fucking miracle.
2. Another VAR farce in the other early kick off in the other early kick off . Those who think that the referee going to the screen is going to resolve all problems - it isn't. A goal has been disallowed for handball when there is ABSOLUTELY NO FUCKING WAY ON THIS EARTH that there was clear evidence of it. So much for benefit of doubt to the attacking sides.
I keep thinking to myself that I'm going to pack in watching the fucking game and, while I once thought it was an idle thought, I am seriously thinking that I'm more likely now than ever to be looking what else I can watch instead of football (with the exception of the games that i really want to see).
After the frustration of watching yesterday's games, the refreshing sight of a referee doing his job properly in the Lokomotiv v Juventus game. He's made it quite plain that all you will gain by throwing yourself to the ground for fuck all is muddy shorts and the chance of leaving your team a man short until you get up off your cheating fucking arse.
