If they've not been able to make the decision, would you rather they guessed?
It's their job to indicate which way the decision has gone, even if it wasn't them making that decision.
It annoys me how many assistants seem to bottle other decisions right in front of them though. |

That's a really interesting listen, thanks Phil. Great to hear your summary of recent years. |

For some reason the scored board showed 30,696 at some point? Odd. |

But at least you'll be able to watch the rugby. There's always a plus.  |

I just looked at the Morrisons car park entrance on streetview, and although normally the restriction is 3 hours max stay, it states 90 mins max on match days. Might well be targetting Saturday matches of course, but probably not worth the risk. |

I'll be there, family in tow. Very local to me, so we were biting our nails about getting tickets as we never miss this fixture (couldn't justify Membership for entire family, so sadly this will be the first away game we've managed this season, after getting tickets for the Rotherham debacle then not being able to make the rearranged fixture!).
Really looking forward to it. I've really missed the away buzz this season, plus local bragging rights at stake of course... |

Well, 3 out of 4 of them - the drummer is out of action for a while.
They have a good sound, elements of many bands - remind me a bit of Steve Wilson's Porcupine Tree in places, not as dark and heavy, obviously. |

They're just moving the red line to a different point - but the decision on whether the "whole body" is in front still has to be made, just the same as "any part of" or whatever it is now, surely?
The argument will just be renamed, but basically we'll still be debating whether x was past the line or not.
In Cheltenham Blue's reply & the official example photo, what if the player has his shirt tucked in and shorts pulled right up, vs. long untucked shirt over his arse? Will long style shorts give an advantage? etc... Where does the "whole body" start?! 
I've often thought that a red line plus a trailing area behind it for a margin of error should be used to account for blurred imagery and the frame rate of the tech etc. Loads of times you see a freeze frame at the "moment the ball is kicked" but the ball is a smudge and it was kicked a fraction before or after the point in time the red line represents. Hence the red line should be equally as fuzzy and more forgiving. It's impossible to make it as accurate as the clear-cut goal line technology. |

Good choice, although by all accounts Elton could actually sing last night.
I opted to go and see Muse at MK Bowl. Outstanding show, I must say, having skipped their tours for several years now. We were just a few feet from the barrier, which make my daughter's first ever gig pretty special. Notes: it was hot. |
