I'm bored sh**less waiting for the announcement of a new manager, as we all are, and I've had one too many reefers and I'm off my rocker. Anyhoo, here's a football question for all you regulars:

I'm a time travelling referee (I'm really a work shy alkie but bare with me) and I've just leapt back into the future from the 80s (hence the fashion sense) and am refereeing the France v England game from yesterday.

After blowing my whistle for the first time to start the game, roughly how long would it be before I blow my whistle again and for what reason? Please bare in mind that some of the rules of the game would have changed since the 80s but being a dip s**t I wouldn't have known that whilst travelling through time in the old Delorean.

I think it's a fairly easy one, so let's 'av it then you clever know it alls. Free pint in the virtual bar for the first correct answer.

Goalie takes more than 5 steps holding the ball. Easy peasy. It's a pint of vodka ! Cheers

Approximately 2 minutes because you've seen your SIL with all the other England fans in the crowd. But instead of waving her t shirt above her head she's waving her lace panties. Make mine a pint of bushmills please Mr Micheal

Bryan Robson scored in 27 seconds at 1982 World Cup?

{Ed003's Note - he did,remember running home from school to watch it and expecting us to get beat,that was a good evening.}

Mick I think from the kick off as I'm sure the ball was kicked backwards and not forwards like in the good old days.

No offsides and 2 footed tackles are fine unless you literally shank someone, so. 9th minute, first goal? Was pretty young in the 80's so my knowledge of the game rules for that period are spotty.

Well done Speedo. Last year the rule changed that the ball doesn't have to be played forward like it has been since the first rules of football were penned. God I'm interesting! I would have blown up straight away to ask for that numpty Kane to retake the centre only to be then told that the rules had changed.

How embarrassing! Straight back into the Delorean and back to the comfort of 1986, perms and shell suits for me. Put your order in Speedo, the virtual drink is on me.
