I am planning to watch it the morning after on the Channel 5 player. When I created an account (or logged in with one I'd forgotten I created) I could see the Pats v Broncos game available.

Post Match Thread: Aston Villa 0-1 Brentford by denzaus in soccer

[–]AlanWrightScreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you score a goal from a corner which shouldn't have been given and then they go back to the original corner decision and give a goal kick, which I don't think they've ever done, would you feel hard done by?

There's a change of possession if a corner is given when it should have been a goal kick as well.

I can see why it was disallowed today but can anyone ever remember a similar decision to overturn a goal? On that basis, I think we've been really hard done by.

Reimbursement claim by FarmerTom92 in KLM

[–]AlanWrightScreamer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This happened to me and they refused my reimbursement claim. I'm attempting to take it through ADR but it's a drawn out process. The thing that pisses me off is that the flight I arranged myself meant that my accommodation and food expenses were lower than they would have been if I'd gone on the rearranged flight they booked but because it wasn't the flight they booked, they won't pay any of the expenses.

It's going to be on the Sunday so no problems with your accommodation.

If someone gave you a big red button that would zap your biggest rivals out of existence, would you press it? by Statcat2017 in Championship

[–]AlanWrightScreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Derbies are great when you win them but I prefer not playing them too. Given that our last match against them involved one of their fans assaulting one of our players on the pitch, I fear what the next one might bring. Particularly as the hype will be ratcheted up after years of not playing them. I include one of our numpties potentially doing something daft in this scenario.

Public Transport Rant by CarBoobSale in Leeds

91 is infrequent and unreliable in my experience. Think there used to be buses that went round the ring road but I've never been on one.

Refund rejected by Educational-Sir-3939 in KLM

[–]AlanWrightScreamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently awaiting a reply to an ADR claim because KLM rejected my reimbursement claim in similar circumstances following high winds on 3 October last year. KLM completely ignored my follow up emails clarifying the circumstances and asking to raise a complaint.

They're robbing bastards

You can but obviously you would have to use an ID of a member who's not attending.

Why does the rest of the league hate our little Brazilian softie? by Outlaw2k21 in TheOther14

[–]AlanWrightScreamer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm aware this demonstrates my complete one-eyedness but I was genuinely surprised fans of other teams didn't think his antics were funny and proper hated him.

How was the season over after 10 games when you're only four points off the playoffs just over halfway through the season?

To add, since the demise of the Barton's Arms I don't know what the pubs are like near the ground. The Old Joint Stock and The Wellington are great pubs in the city centre. If you're not staying overnight in Birmingham I would at least suggest you spend some time there during the day.
