00:00I think he might have a word with the referee or the party, he's very risky, given the fact

00:29that he's played by the official in this game here.

00:36So, I've reached an age where memory loss is just part of everyday life, I'm quite happy

00:47to forget this game here, sitting on a nil, heads nil.

00:51I should probably thank the referee and Alassane Amani for giving us a reason to remember it

00:58at all.

00:59The heads player making his debut after a minute, and then 13-14 minutes later, a second

01:09booking, it looked very soft, and he's off.

01:13Yeah, talk about making an impact for the new boy.

01:21Listen, this happens.

01:25These things happen.

01:27The ref here was trying to keep hold of 22, 28 or however many guys in the account, subs

01:35who were flying out of tackles, pulling each other, it happens.

01:39The problem there is yellow cards aren't reviewable under VAR.

01:46VAR actually worked very well today, the kids had been awarded a penalty, it was not a penalty

01:52it was a red card offence, it's not a red card offence, but I don't think you'll find

01:59too many heads feeling that way about it.

02:01Listen, it was a brutal game of football.

02:04Pitch isn't great, there was a lot of hitting the ball into the channels, looking to get

02:10guys turned, and a point, listen, didn't really lose anything for heads, they stay in fifths,

02:21they'll play better than this, they'll have to play better than this, but it's just chocolate

02:27ice, not many will remember, although poor Manny will be trying to forget it for a while.
