I`ve never really understood that kind of protest! What does it achieve? To me, it`s like all 11 Players angrily surrounding the Ref after a Footballing decision has gone against them! Shout all you want, he`s not going to go; ‘oh well, now you put it like that you`re probably right so I`ll change my mind!’ – That`s why VAR was brought in, so now the Captain just requests that the Referee looks at the incident again and reassess the outcome. But maybe the fact that lots of the ‘Attendees’ probably think ‘Looting’ is the place between Watford & Milton Keynes has something to do with the decision making!? One thing it did confirm, which I`ve been searching for my whole life is we finally now know the answer to the Horse Question: ‘Why The Long Face!?’ – It`s because it had just been hit by a brick! Which also turns out to be rhyming slang for the person that threw it! I`m just afraid that, as a consequence of these weekend mass gatherings, we either develop a huge second spike in COVID-19 cases that spark another phase of lockdown or, especially up here in Scotland, the Government decide the Public can`t act responsibly and enforce our Lockdown to continue!!? Here`s hoping it`s neither because in many other aspects it does feel like we are making great progress and things are settling into a more recognisable form of existence. |
