Fuck me, you must be fun at parties đ Just tired of folk who pick and choose whats acceptable as humour, who cant be made fun of and who can.. Who can be used as the butt to demean those who have no reason or excuse to be fucking useless and those that cant.. My humour is and has been pretty black and most would be totally unacceptable to many on here and elsewhere, disability isnt a big part of it, the fuckwits wandering about with 'beliefs' in their own heads and opinions that have not a single fact to back them up, or damage themselves and want us all to see them as victims are the ones I think funny. Id get short shrift on here. Geez, take a chill pill, not like they can see what Porroh has posted đ |

One or two about mental health suicide should go down a storm, or would you avoid them? I dont usually bite at jokes, being Jewish gives you a thick skin but equating the incompetence or worse of an able bodied, well paid professional with a disability is fucking annoying. |

Can't you just go back to spreading Covid misinformation instead, at least that was funny in a bewildering way. |

I mean, calling a ref blind is obviously not an intentional attempt to cause offence to genuinely blind people - everyone knows that surely - yet here we are. |

I merely stated what I had been told by people who were monitoring the situation for us from the area. Im pretty sure none of it was misinformation, you can read our media if you want that. The rest was from being there 3 times since 2014. Sorry if it does not fit the narrative. I believe the outcome will be as predicted. As for covid, now monkey pox the science was proved wrong so many times that its clear that its political and behavioral science that has and will run whatever is coming, much like it did with these tools. |

I mean, calling a ref blind is obviously not an intentional attempt to cause offence to genuinely blind people - everyone knows that surely - yet here we are. You are equating a disability to excuse the pure incompetence or worse of an able bodied professional. A joke about a blind person doing something funny because they 'cant' see is different, as is joking about a blind person injuring themselves because of their disability. A blind person cannot be a ref because they really cant see. The complaints about the paddy power blind footballers kicking the cat with a bell round its neck were from cat lovers, blind people found it hilarious and no cats were kicked. You can laugh about most things its the context. |

For all we know they could have told Moss to overturn it but he fucked them off. It's mind-blowing that we don't get to hear the Comms from the VAR team.

It's so they can then make up any old bollocks after the game to give them the best chance of worming out of any mistakes they have made. If we had already heard how they reached a decision then they've got nowhere to go. At the bare minimum, the coaching staff of both sides should be able to hear what is going on. If they completely disagree with what is being said then they should be able to have 1 appeal per half where they can insist on the referee having to look at the screen again. Unless you're the most stubborn person in the world who always believes you are right (unfortunately it seems a lot of refs tick that box) why wouldn't you want the opportunity to have another look at it? Surely Moss is now wishing he had looked at both again on the screen as he wouldnt have had the horrible week which has followed. |

Just another week, another bunch of fans thinking his shite refereeing has cost them the game. Imagine its like water off a ducks back to refs like him. |

People who think they are always right never actually consider they might not be. More likely he was thinking what a great career he'd had and looking forward to his promotion to referee's boss ....and the next bar of chocolate. |

Yes you could be right I think this is the inherent problem with referees. A bit of a generalisation on my part but you've got to be a bit of a weirdo in the first place to want to be a referee. Usually it's because you're rubbish at football and can't get a game so you ref instead. Most seem to have that arrogant type of personality where they take great delight in being centre stage upsetting people |

This article, along with the bullshit that his business was trashed, is a poor attempt to take the heat off him to garner some sympathy. Pathetic. He was wrong on both penalty calls and is incompetent. Has no business taking up the new role as itâs well beyond him.

The way the Corrupt League and collaborators see it is that they gave us our 2 years in the limelight and this time come hell or high water itâll be a âbigâ club that comes up and enriches their brand.
Itâs now a vast global business and as far as theyâre concerned fairness doesnât come into it. They operate like any mega corporation to aggressively grow their revenues and profits to participants.
Iâm more than happy for us to stay in the Championship - and with the added benefit not to see us get thrashed every week and sitting at the bottom of the PL like Norwich.

Iâd be happy with that Art. There are plenty of decent clubs in the EFL to build a strong competition and rivalry with.
It would take some time to settle though, because the PL has induced casino type chairmanship in the EFL.
Itâs franchise football weâre ultimately talking about. It will happen in my lifetime, which is sad in a way, but there will still be a strong market for TV audiences, albeit not to the level that a franchised PL/ESL would have. But their fans might then realise how theyâre just pawns in a big homogenised entertainment business.

Ideally we would have won promotion against Forest and then opt out or sell our premier League place. I would have taken ÂŁ50m-ÂŁ75m to then stay in the Championship and have another season of competitive football. With the money we could reward the players, strengthen the team, upgrade training ground and stadium facilities whilst subsidising low ticket prices. This maybe very harsh on the players getting to the premier League but not getting to actually play in it. The best thing about not being in the premier League would be not hearing the 'I went to Anfield, Old Trafford and Emirates so I deserve a ticket for Spurs or its unfair' posts (which occur mainly on Facebook). |

I was just reading new Wolves boss, Gary O'Neil, comments after the game at Old Trafford last night:
"Jon Moss said it was a blatant penalty, and it should have been given - fair play to him, he apologised."
"Fair play to Jon for saying it was a clear and obvious error - he couldn't believe that the on field referee didn't give it or that VAR didn't intervene".
Now I was a massive advocate for moving on but the irony is extremely bitter this morning. The other question is how on earth did Moss get the job, of essentially policing referees, for the PGMOL? I have been quite impressed by Howard Webb as the head of PGMOL but this appointment is risible. When you consider the comments of respected professionals such as Keith Hackett after Wembley last year it beggars belief Moss was appointed, or perhaps it doesn't.
I really do think we have to move on but reading all that left a bitter taste this morning. It also demonstrated how much a "jobs for the boys" lark football actually is.
I would never advocate any abuse or unpleasantness towards Mr Moss but I hope if he ever visits the John Smith's in an official capacity he is merely shown to his seat and given a cold cup of tea.
Rant over.
