It's the inconsistency that frustrates. The shirt pull on the Man U player may be a foul but the same thing happens at every corner kick and is ignored 99% of the time. Also, it shouldn't be enough to make a grown man fall over. I know that the...
Players are worse than referees for knowing the rules. Every game you can see a player blatantly foul another and yet claim innocence, and players throwing themselves on the ground and being completely amazed they don`t get a free.
I think the...
Most ex-players (at least the pundits on TV) are stupider than mud and think with their emotions 'that pull on the shirt wasn't enough to give a foul for' - since when did pulling someone's shirt become acceptable? If that's happened during my...
Remember yesteryear when we looked down our noses at players on the continent getting 'brushed' and writhing on the ground in 'agony?' The Premier League has gone far beyond that. It should be that, if the game has to be stopped for an 'lnjury'...
It's yet another reason I hate VAR, games against Arsenal, Chelsea City and RS are now 100 minute games. Also big teams will put on more subs, and get extra minutes, it's a joke. Add to that big teams feigning injury which gives them even more...
VAR should be scrapped. Just take it back to how it was. The ref makes a decision and that's it. Sometimes he gets it wrong sometimes not. I don't think that the 'advantages of VAR (the line shows that his toenail was offside) outweigh the...
Yep. No different to what Califiori (can be bothered to look up the correct spelling) did in the first half, for which a penalty wasn't given. He kicked the defenders standing foot. But that's one of the (many) problems these days - the...
15 year old wonderkid Max Dowman with a disgraceful dive to 'win' a penalty versus Leeds, VAR fails to 'spot' it conveniently. Can't have a Scab 6 wonderkid being shown to be a cheat after all
That’s life I’m afraid .
We don’t all think the same .
It would be a boring world if we did.
Just be you and let everyone else enjoy the same freedom and we will all get along fine.
( there is always the option to ignore )
i can't be bothered to read the (frankly overly complex) rules, but i can see how some people might think that JT deliberately leaned into the shot knowing that it would strike his arm. Is that a penalty nowadays? No one knows beacause the laws...
The refs are useless/corrupt (probably more likely just scared and incompetent tbf) and VAR is run by other refs - ie; THEIR MATES. Unsurprisingly, they all have each other's backs. VAR needs to be run by an independent group who do not...
They only struggle to deal with it because they are too weak to dish out yellow cards. Mind you the half-wit pundits don't help. I heard one (with the main commentator agreeing) that it was too early in the game to give yellow cards for bad...
