Samme gjelder i Drammen og på GU! Det er fader ikke Arsenal, PSG eller Barcelona du skal se på. Burde ikke vært kontroversielt i det hele tatt

[Imtiaz Mahmood @ImtiazMadmood]

I was on a train in Tokyo. We stopped between stations. Announcement in Japanese, then in English: "We apologize for the delay. We will resume shortly."

The delay was maybe 3 minutes. Not a big deal.

When the train started moving again, another announcement: "We sincerely apologize for the delay. We were stopped for 3 minutes and 20 seconds. This is unacceptable. Thank you for your patience."

Three minutes and twenty seconds. They measured it exactly. And called it unacceptable.

When I got off at my stop, there were station staff on the platform bowing and handing out delay certificates.

I took one out of curiosity. It was an official document stating that the train had been delayed by 3 minutes and 20 seconds, signed and stamped.

The staff member said in English "for your employer. So they know the delay was not your fault."

I said I'm a tourist, I don't need it. He looked confused. "But the delay affected you. You deserve an apology."

Three minutes. They were treating a three-minute delay like a major incident.

Later I mentioned this to a Japanese friend. They said "oh yes, delay certificates are normal. Trains are supposed to be exactly on time. If they are late, they must apologize."

I said three minutes isn't late, it's nothing. My friend said "in Japan, three minutes is late. On time means on time. Not approximately on time."

They said the train company probably investigated why there was a 3-minute delay. "They will find the cause and fix it so it doesn't happen again."

I kept the certificate. It's framed in my apartment now. A reminder that somewhere in the world, people care about three minutes.

Og på et vakkert maleri eksisterer det en stygg oljeflekk. Den heter VAR- og forsøker med alle midler å ødelegge også denne skjønnheten av en fotballkamp

Nå må det være slutt på amatørenes aften på Ullevål!

Det er komplisert, ikke vanskelig å få terminlista til å gå opp. NFF gjør det vanskelig fordi de ikke greier å tenke mer enn ett trekk frem. De skaper trøbbel for seg selv og skyver problemene foran seg.

Eric Cantona on stadium names:

"Every stadium today is named Emirates or Allianz. These stadiums have lost the spirit and history of their clubs.

Thankfully, Manchester United still plays at Old Trafford, and Anfield has kept its name. Can you imagine renaming Old Trafford after a brand? If that ever happens, I’m sorry, but I won’t be a fan of the club anymore, and I’ll walk away from football forever."

Det er bra at VAR kan innrømme feil. Men å blande inn "teknisk/operative feil" er bare tåkelegging.

ℹ️ VAR har blitt informert om feilmarginer i årevis uten å akseptere dette
🫢 VAR hadde én vinkel og antok at de likevel hadde rett

Hvor spennende treningskamp kan man arrangere for å få flyttet en Eliteserierunde? Nå får @fredrikstadfk sine supportere mandagskamp istedet, som gir mye større utfordringer for folk som vil reise.

[Egil Heinert @Heinert]

At Rosenborg får flytte en eliteseriekamp på grunn av at de skal spille showkamp mot Manchester United er så hinsides mye verre enn de flyttingene Glimt har fått. Det er ikke mulig å sammenligne en gang.

Premier League fans deliver damning verdict on VAR. 75% of 7,946 fans polled by the Football Supporters’ Association “didn’t support the use of VAR”. Too long, too forensic, too much of a joy killer, fans say. Findings shared with Premier League and PGMO.

92% of fans surveyed “agreed” that “VAR has removed the spontaneous joy of goal celebrations” (82% of them “strongly agreed”).

85% of match-going fans “strongly disagreed” with the notion that “VAR makes watching football more enjoyable”. And 83% of those watching on TV.

85% of match-going fans “strongly disagreed” that “VAR decisions are generally resolved in a reasonable amount of time”. Echoed by 83% of those watching on TV.

Only 18% agreed that “VAR has improved the overall accuracy of refereeing decisions”.

72% are “concerned about the expansion of VAR beyond its current remit”.

79% “strongly disagreed” with the suggestion “that the match-going experience is better with VAR”.

67% “strongly agreed” that they preferred “watching games that are played without VAR to games with VAR”.

84% “strongly support” goal-line technology.

34% “strongly opposed” to the idea of a challenge system (two per game per team).

“These findings back up the FSA's previous survey in 2021, where fans expressed misgivings about the introduction of VAR,” says Thomas Concannon, @WeAreTheFSAPremier League network manager.
“The vast majority are reporting the same concerns five years on - the loss of spontaneity when celebrating goals, and an overall worsening of the match-going experience. We have shared the survey results with the Premier League and PGMO, and look forward to discussing its findings with them.” Fans surveyed of all PL clubs and all ages (Under-18 to 65+).

Fotballpublikummet er klokkeklare på at VAR ikke er noe de ønsker. Likevel blir det innført overalt. Hvorfor? Penger. Alt handler om makt og penger for de som styrer fotballen. Og de er ikke redde for å endre sporten til det verre om det kan tjene dem.

🇦🇷🗣️ Marcelo Bielsa back in 2024: "I am sure that football is in a process of decline. It is becoming less and less attractive because what made it the best game in the world is not there anymore."

"If you let a lot of people watch football, but you don't protect the pleasure of what they watch, that favours business, because the business is that a lot of people watch football."

"For me, the introduction of technology (like VAR) does a lot of harm to football. This sport has a particularity: when it becomes completely predictable, it loses its appeal."

"As time passes, as fewer and fewer footballers are worth watching and as the game produced is less and less enjoyable, this artificial increase in the number of spectators will be interrupted."

Do you agree with Marcelo? 😳
