At TFL, we're making tube journeys faster in the future, with signalling improvements underway

0:05.3

on the Circle District, Hammersmith and City and Metropolitan lines. And there's also the

0:10.5

Elizabeth Line already giving you fast journeys across central London. That is how we're making

0:15.7

the greener way to travel brighter for everyone. Such TFL improvement plan. To the Mayor of London and TFL, every journey matters.

0:24.4

Elizabeth Line is fast compared to other TFL modes,

0:27.1

greener than total estimated petrol and diesel car emissions.

0:33.9

Shepard United have taken all three points at Bramall Lane, capitalising on a goalkeeping

0:42.0

error to go one-nil up in the second half.

0:46.0

West Ham thought they had equalized, but Declan Rice handled the ball there, which meant that

0:52.4

this goal was disallowed after consultation with the

0:56.8

VAR to rapture scenes at Bramel lane with the Sheffler United fans but Declan rice is now with

1:03.6

Patrick Davison.

1:04.4

Declan very hard to clear your head and think straight right now, I'm sure, but what are the emotions?

1:16.8

We're fuming, really. You know, all the lads in there are livid.

1:21.2

Obviously, it was a tough place to come. You know, they've been excellent all season.

1:24.2

And, you know, credit to them, they grinded it out again and won the game. You know, these places tough to come. I thought we done well. You know we knew what we was up against. We created some chance ourselves, missed some chances. And of course the goal at the end there, that's a tough one to take because a point on the road here would have been good for us. Did you have any inkling at all when you put Snodgrass in, the goal goes in, that it might get checked, that it hit your hand? No. You know, I just watched it back there before we come on camera and he's not the ball into my hand. I know I'm in a forward running motion and he's not, not, he's headed the ball into my hand and of course if you're running with

2:01.8

your arms like that the ball's hit your arm now the rule like you said it's handball but I've not

2:05.9

intentionally meant to handball it and of course you play on mic's not seen it and then VR has checked

2:11.5

it and you know they've disallowed the goal is to real kick in their teeth so you and I did discuss

2:15.8

this briefly off camera is it your view and I know like this is all very fresh, but the problem is the handball rule or VAR? Well, I think it's just not me. Well, I don't think it's just me. I think it's the faults of every Premier League player that, you know, I don't think pretty much anyone wants to have VAR in the game. There's been so many decisions this season that's been absolutely crazy. Obviously, sometimes it works, but you see, they're celebrating VAR like it's a goal. You know, football shouldn't be like that. You know, the emotions there, the West Ham fans shown when we've equalized, that's real emotion. And, you know, they're celebrating VAR and yeah, look, I don't

2:52.5

think we're all too happy with it to be honest, but look, it's in the game now and we've just got to kick up, get on with it. Is it the case it just somehow doesn't feel fair, it just doesn't feel right? Yeah, exactly that. Look, it's on there again. I just can't get over it the way he's knocked it into my hand and I'm not intentionally meant to handball the ball. They've checked it and

3:10.1

mate I can't get over it the way he's knocked it into my hand. I've not intentionally meant to handball the ball.
