If they genuinely want to save time they should consider limiting the time taken to throw the ball back into play and the quite incredible amount of time wasted while the ref sorts out the wall - and other issues - before a free kick is taken within shooting distance.

OI - that’s harsh when the player going off is usually one that’s been hurt by a bad tackle from an opposing player. I don’t think punishing the victim is fair - maybe the player committing the foul should be told to leave the field as well, and they can both come back on when the 4th official (who has little else to do) deems it to be the right time…. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Picture in today's times from Chelsea v Man U Women's FA Cup match at KM. The stand in the picture is empty. If they can't fill the stadium for that game how can they justify moving to a bigger ground?

One minute on sidelines after injury treatment happening apparently. [Link]

Bragging or complaining LD ;) ? Who should pay for one?

A tree sapling was planted out front by the council this morning. 10 (yes, ten) workers plus 2 vehicles were evidently required to achieve this mammoth task. Much as I love trees, I'm still shaking my head at such a total waste of manpower.

Britain doesn't have a single speed skating long track.

I've got cousins called Brereton but not living in Mitcham as far as I know. Not that rare a surname I guess.

Victim’s name is Luke Brereton - hopefully no relative of the female kiwi Brereton who used to follow the Dons (dunno if she still does haven’t seen her for yonks).

Well isn’t the whole world looking a little brighter today the sun is out, we’re top of the bottom half of the table, 10th favourites to get relegated and have Mansfield away up next which doesn’t look like at an automatic loss - not saying we won’t lose but all 3 results feel equally possible.

Never heard of it Bob, sorry… 🤷🏻‍♂️

Anyone out there who actually uses HEY?

Laurence - thanks very much for your response

Dreadful that this keeps happening, and it should serve to remind the doubters why it’s important to keep highlighting the fact that there’s no room for hate in football (nor elsewhere either…) [Link]

Surrey Bob - The TrustPilot reviews are here. [Link] Their general customer service has been transferred to South Africa.

Surrey Bob - Hey broadband are apart of F&W Network, and this comes up, which may be good? F&W Networks and UK ISP Hey! Broadband Cut e-Waste by Reusing Routers.

There should be a number of different WiFi connections around Plough Lane including a guest login, also hospitality and expo. There are also dedicated high speed connections too. Media I believe remains the highest speed with both WiFi and direct ethernet connections. I use UW as I have done since I first got a mobile in 2001 and the company sit on the EE network.

Following on from last night's conversation in here, does anyone in here have any experience of using HEY as their ISP. Asking for an elderly neighbour. I've never heard of them but is appears they are really cheap - quite possibly wrongly, that starts alarm bells ringing for me but I've found that is because they claim not to use (therefore not pay for) BT, Virgin or other infrastructure for access to properties and prefer to dig up everything - paving stones, block paving, gardens etc just to gain access. Any first hand help or advice out there?

I'm with EE after Virgin decided to put my TV and broadband (and by association my mobile) up by an eye watering amount. Never an issue although I do have to turn my WiFi off at Plough Lane as it defaults to the club's very slow connection.

I’m on Vodafone directly and never had issues with signal at PL, for what it’s worth

On EE - great service insude PL, unlimited wifi £9.99/month.

I'm with Lebara (which I think is based on Vodafone). I generally get a good signal in PL, even at busy times.

Agree Keefy ,Been with Tesco for about 10 years can't fault them and their O2 network

I have SIM only Sky Mobile contract. They also piggyback on the O2 network. I've given up even trying now to get online inside Plough Lane because of network congestion. At half time while everyone is browsing on their phones I'm usually either talking to the people I sit near or just staring into space. Occasionally, I'm more successful at away games. Barnsley was fine. Sky Mobile deny they have a lower network priority than direct O2 customers but it is pretty obvious they do as my wife used to be with O2 directly and she didn't have the network congestion issues I have, Wembley last May being a good example.
