@LTFC_Dave They don't roll the snicko on once it has hit the pad do they? They go to ball tracking.
When you think of the minute gaps between pads and bats in cricket yet there are still spaces between the lines a distance between striker and defender there will leave a lengthy flat line.
@LTFC_Dave It is no different to cricket is it? If there is a spike on the outside edge they don't keep the lines going until it gets to the keepers gloves!
@LTFC_Dave It would do but I presume they cut off the snicko once it hits the Croatian guy because from there nowt else matters (they don't need snicko to decide the defensive bit)?
@LTFC_Dave The ball has a chip in it so it must have been touched to bring that line up. The only question is whether the defender deliberately played the ball which imo he didn't.
@LTFC_Dave It wasn't really was it? Doesn't foul him the bloke scores. Foul him and a) with the standard of refereeing these days you might get away with it or b) the penalty might be missed.
Smart move rather than brain fade.
How the hell have England gone into a World Cup knockout game with a right side of Djed Spence and Noni Madueke!? You'd find a stronger right side in Sunday league teams π€£
@kevlennon1 The one time he's actually stood on his feet you mean?! If I had Β£1 for every time he falls over under no pressure I'd have funded Kasey Palmer 5 times over π€£.
To think we took him over Palmer or Bowen π±
That Sky montage on Stokes' career was brilliant. The most wholehearted, deliverer of special moments/memories, English cricketer of my lifetime.
Good luck replacing him!
How Ben Stokes is leaving English cricket before Rob Key who has succeeded in the square root of naff all in 4 years in charge is genuinely one of sports biggest mysteries!
@LTFC_Dave Both happened after they were content to beat Haiti 1-0 though DaveO (and they only just managed to do that!). Honking team anyway. Tournament is better off without them.
