Reply | Vienna and Bratislava; how many days?
at 15:48 7 Sep 2025
I’ve just spent two full days (3 nights) in each of Budapest, Vienna and Bratislava (as part of 22 days taking in seven cities).
Do Bratislava as a day trip from Vienna (or Budapest). The medieval city is tiny and it really has taken a long time to not yet recover from being left to rot under the Soviet Union. You will get a feel for the place, contribute something to the economy, but have more time in cities with more to do.
We did a walking tour in each place we visited - doing that as part of a day trip to Bratislava will probably do. |

Trouble is there isn’t much you can do. Yellow card and then send off a player for time wasting? How would you feel as a fan if one of our players suffered that? Where is the boundary? How long is “time wasting”? The rule book doesn’t really help.
They need to write clear futsal style rules asap. |

No, he’s not a very good goalkeeper. He had a good season and choose not to stay.
What we have is good enough to go up (well, should be) so I’d worry about a new GK come May. |

Believe it or not the throw in comes from the “split” of rules from rugby football. It should be more like futsal with a one step “run up” and absolutely like futsal in that you get 5 seconds to take it. |

I stopped a game because I thought the player might be having a heart attack. LOTG say I shouldn’t have. Fortunately he was fine. I’d stop the game every time again. |

Agree 100%.
Also, the rule as originally intended was to check a player and then take them off the pitch for treatment, not stop the game and wait for them to be treated. Seems clubs didn’t like this as you hurt a player and gained a power play. |

No, you need two referees like field hockey.
Problem with ARs now is that once you get above step 5 the standing rule is “leave the game to the referee” so they do very little assisting.
Every league and every level complains about referees. It isn’t the referees it is how the game expects the officiating to be accomplished. |

It is the model that has been present when the club has been successful in the past. I don’t know Sir Alfs time, but Robson sold players to bring in new and before the prem season with the UEFA cup it was about selling and buying wisely - notably Dyer. |

The rulebook has, for years, attempted to remove “manufactured fouls” - and has mostly done so.
A ball hitting a hand being a foul opens that back up.
My version - “if you gain an unfair advantage from the ball hitting the hand (compared to not hitting the hand” then it is a foul.
Ball hitting hand on the way to goal or when being crossed? Ball hit hand as it pings around on the half way line? Ball hit hand as twelve year old child protects face when ball kicked at them from five yards away? |

Joined May 2020. This means the account has been active about 1,800 days.
The account has made 18,800 posts.
That’s 10 posts a day. Every day. Without fail.
It fewer than most troll/bot accounts - those often have 100+ a day. Maybe it is a genuine account - but that we are even having the debate shows how bad things are.
The age ID thing was the wrong solution to a question the politicians didn’t understand. We need a digital identity to prove the person is real - even if staying anonymous. |

KM will have said to OH “look - everyone will be watching this game, go out there and demolish them, put £5m on your value and get a big boy properly interested instead of Brentford”. |

Head says 3-0 win, with our professionalism and quality shining through.
Heart says gritty 1-1 draw and we have to dig in at times.
A good match for a safety bet, if you consider that appropriate…. |

Service Now are the main players in this field, however their software is eye wateringly expensive and needs “professional consultation support” to make most changes. As the article implies it’s also become slow and clunky as time has progressed. I work with two clients currently, one uses Halo and is very happy (about 300 seats) the other uses Service Now and isn’t happy (7,000 seats). Problem is the old “you never get fired for buying IBM” mentality still exists in IT and someone I know is part of an RFP for a new system and despite all the scores favouring Halo they still prefer Service Now because “they are the biggest”. But like asking why the Citeh fan is a Citeh fan despite living in Suffolk and never going to Manchester in their life….. |
