    There's been brilliant growth in the markets in the last 12 months that you've all missed out on. 

    They've probably had the money "resting in their account", gaining 20%+ returns, and then invest the money correctly when required.

    Can any pension experts tell me if combine old pensions from elsewhere is a good idea, some of the plans i wish to combine are only 2 years old, would there be any financial loss if i move them?

    Here in Ireland, you can access 25% of a non-contributory pension, tax-free, once you hit 50.

     

    So if you've £50k in the old pension(s), you can take out £12,500 tax free and the remainder sits there earning until retirement.

  3. Completed the Chicago marathon yesterday. Delighted with my time, but could've gone a bit faster if I'd pushed myself. Glad someone was there to record me crossing the finish line.

    The comma someone put between offside and goal here in the subtitles makes a big difference in the whole debate of who knew what was happening.

     

    The question before was 'The decision was offside. Are you happy with this?'. To me this Assistant VAR is saying it was an offside goal. He just seems like a yes man but when putting subtitles in someone has added a comma to make him look confused.

    Exactly.

    Change that to Offside? Goal, yeah?

    Sorry Jurgen disagree, no replay.

     

    And as sure as night follows day the Spurs fans are all over social media complaing they want the CL final replayed over the penalty.

    Don't see why. The ball hit the outstretched arm!

     

    And even iff it didn't, that's a subjective decision ala. Curtis's red card. We've been told from day 1 that offisde isn't subjective. It's either on or off. This was on and given off.

    Why does he say "off"? 

     

    He's not misunderstanding what he's checking, he's coming to the wrong conclusion...

    I'm getting old, but when I was watching the game the other day, I clearly remember saying to myself that they never bothered to draw the fucking lines.

    But now in the footage being shown, the lines are there?!

    Also, some poster on here made the argument that the VAR don't see the graphics of the incident being "investigated"; that it's the broadcaster that puts that up for the viewers.

    But now in the footage being show, the graphics are there!

     

    Also also, when Diaz is through on goal, the VAR pipes up with "possible offside Diaz".

    The linesman says "Coming back for the offside mate", with the VAR replying "Just checking the offside, delay, delay".

    So the VAR is obviously watching the play, offered "possible offside Diaz" before the flag was raised, then hears the lino bring it back for offside, then says to delay the game because he's checking for offside. Lines are drawn on the screen with the "checking disallowed goal - offside" graphic in the corner, and the lines so clearly show Diaz onside that there's no need for a second line to show his position.

    And we're supposed to believe, after all that, he mistakingly decided to go with the onfield decision with Spurs lining up a freekick 40 yards from goal?

     

    Absolute bollox.
