Are you saying they should have lots of little plinths for all the balls? |  |

No plinths! Ban the plinth!! It’s an ffing ball! One of many! The ref can carry the thing out or the captain of the home team. [Post edited 3 Jun 2023 12:32]

Multiple substitutions take too long, probably to give managers more time to brief the team and for those still on to take a breather. Also strange how depending on whether you're winning or not a player to come off can be way over the other side of the pitch and apparently oblivious to the fact that he's got to get off. Need a sub board with space for 3 pairs of numbers and refs willing to restart the game without them if they don't get on with it. |  | |  |

On vloggers, I see our boy Griffin was at the playoff finals and, bizarrely, singing along with the Sheff Weds fans. Odd behavior. |  |

Are you talking about Benjamin Bloom? If so I agree, very good. I moaned about this the other day and nobody cared but I will moan again - the way they scribble a load of crap over the shirts when you play in a final to commemorate the event. Looks proper tat. If you must have something on the shirt to boost the provenance for collectors, just stick a little holographic sticker somewhere discreet. |  |

On a similar theme any sort of unoriginal 'footy banter' I find really unfunny and tedious. That joke heat map of a player who got sent off not long after coming on wasn't very funny the first time I saw it several years ago let alone now. Also on a similar theme, it seems people can't just enjoy a win anymore, as far as social media is concerned at least. People feel they have to rub it in, like getting one over someone is more important than the joy of winning (genuine rivalries aside of course). You forgive that sort of stuff in the moment but you get people going on days after the match finished ffs. |  |
