Pros and cons though. If Blackburn v Ipswich was a season-defining game in April and the ball is getting stuck on the pitch at 65 minutes you’ve got a bench desperate for it to be called off and another desperate for it not to be until 75 minutes at which point the roles reverse. Lot of pressure on the ref. Pressure on the ground staff even to do (or not do) what they can at half time etc.
Not saying there’s a good solution but having a fixed rule comes with its own difficulties. This postponement was weather out of either team’s control but what if it’s floodlight failure or a pitch invasion or an incident of racism. As soon as there is a rule there’s an opportunity to bend it which some individuals/teams inevitably will. |
I would say this rule would only apply to weather or flood lights. In the case of racism, it wouldn't apply. That would be open to abuse.
The ref would decide when the game became unplayable. |  |

This. A rule like if a game is abandoned after 75 mins the result stays the same. If before its a replay. Let the teams in the league vote on it. |
I'm sure the Sunday League I played in with ASB, the rule was if a match was abandoned after 70 minutes the result stood.
We had a top of the table match which we were losing, there was a huge storm on the hour mark and the game got abandoned. We replayed it and won 3-0 (and went on to win the league)  |  |

Blackburn Rovers have banned the Lancashire Telegraph from all club premises because they don't like the local press reporting objectively, and have even been pressuring Charlton to ban the journalist from The Valley tomorrow.
Embarrassing, but it seems grown adults behaving petulantly when they don't get their own way is becoming ever more normal. |  | | |

Whatever the reason, what does any club gain by doing this? Just won't end well for them | |

If you stop people hearing what you don't want them to you control the narrative. Of course if that gets out, you have to stop those people too. And then the ones that report on them. And then you're North Korea. Ultimately the truth always outs in the end, but there's this weird sense that super rich people have that they can somehow outrun it. It's like Chansiri is doing, bllshitting his way through, it catches up to you eventually. |  | | |

Good result for us tonight with the draw between West Brom and Leicester. Means we can go above both with a win tomorrow.
Plus with a Bristol vs Preston draw and the same between Coventry and Birmingham and assuming Millwall don't beat Swansea by 1 goal or more than we beat Sheff Wed, then we could finish the day in 2nd.
That's right.

Thought WBA looked decent for a championship team.
Leicester so uninspiring and dull supplemented with 20 passes to gain 20yds up the field on the other side of the pitch. | | | |

Yeah, WBA should have wrapped that up. Play direct like ourselves, but Leicester are boring as. Very much a Marti team. | |

I used to think like that Fred.......when I was nine years old and we were running away with the 3rd division and doubling with the League cup.
Almost sixty years older, with a few bits of glorious memories
but mainly let downs by our club and I prefer not to tempt fate and not to count the chickens before the eggs have hatched.
Be happy to accept, I told you so at about 5pm.🙄😬 | | | |

If Middlesbrough receive an immediate deduction of 4 points or more for using Performance Enhancing Parmo’s in any or all of their previous fixtures we could, by this evening, be top. Keep believing! |  | | |

Easy mistake, but you’ve overlooked Stoke. We’ll need them to lose to Norwich too. |  |

Went for large parmo when I went up there as it was £2 more than the small. I can put away the weekly food budget of a small family in one meal when I put my mind to it and couldn’t quite get through it with the mountain of chips and unnecessary side salad. An incredible culinary experience I’d recommend everyone try once and only once. | | | |

North America too now. Look who owns the major SM companies as well as the TV companies and newspapers there now. Whomsoever controls information, controls the people. |  |

Jack Robinson sent off for Birmingham with two brain dead yellow cards in the first half. The 2nd yellow is particularly stupid.
Marvellous. | |

They haven’t done anything special for any of their goals this season (not seen all admittedly). | | | |

The Blades now have points on the board. Three of them. |  |
