Everton and VAR

[ToffeeTim]

There’s no certainty it would be given if he did go down though. People are using it as a stick to beat Walcott with imo

I dont blame walcott at all. I blame the 2 refs. It was a horrendous decision.

 

[Tipp blue]

Exactly, let's stop acting like a small club and accept being shafted week after week like we always do, just want us to grow some balls. I don't see the top 6 being treated like we are, because they don't stand for it.

For that to work the media need to be on our side which they are not, remember when good guy Son totally accidently broke what's his name's leg, that's the standard of reporting we get.

VAR is manned by kopites and therefore we don’t get anything from it. Moss Atkinson and Oliver are on most games. May as well have Aldo and Souness doing it.

Our players own fault for not having any game management about them.

Too much Birkdale not enough Kirkdale in this side.

Walcott should be hitting the deck soon as he is tugged, DCL thinks scoring with his arm is going to miraculously avoid VAR cameras etc.

Holgate penalty could have been given but they said he went down theatrically.
Richarlison constantly faulted for diving.
You can't have it both ways.

Richarlison just cant dive thats his problem.

If Walcott went down today its 100% a penalty on VAR review.

Same way had DCL just thrown his body at the ball to cushion it in instead of his arm its a goal.

The players need to start being smarter.

Actually former players could be a good shout, obviously not those two, but players that can be interviewed after the game and asked to explain their decision. the referees are clueless both on the field and in a room with multiple TV angles.

The players randomly selected have been Danny Murphy and Jamie Carragher. Steve Mcmanan and John Barnes are the pairing for next week’s game.

If VAR could somehow be outsourced to an independent organisation then it could probably work, but these are the same gang of thieves running it so what's the point? Same outcome but just more anger and frustration because people realise that they are being taken for mugs.

Footballers get paid so much that they don't need to "demote" themselves to being a referee. That's how they'll see it. You see former cricketers becoming umpires, won't happen in football. Most of the ref's are players who were nowhere near good enough to play the game so had to resort to reffing.

Just occured to me that we get so little pens I don't know who our pen taker is these days

Still Gylfi.

Still Gylfi.

So inadvertently VAR has been doing us a favour

 

[Bilo]

DCL disallowed goal - handball or not, ref didn’t give handball on field, didn’t see it so can’t say it was deliberate if it was. It was a VAR decision - VAR cannot adjudicate yellow cards so he shouldn’t have been booked for it....Misapplication - as a club we should be asking why!

 

[IV(AC)]

MOTD had 2 similar pens but not as clear as Holgate’s - given by VAR. Holgate pen wasn’t even shown on MOTD...

Walcott’s was as clear a pen as you could ever see. There were similar shouts for clear fouls on DCL and Rico as they were running in on goal from Dunk not given either.

Corrupt.
