The plan seemed to be to not press there and make villa move rather than us.
That’s the exact handball that fans have been conned into accepting.
The scab 6 get that given. We don’t.
They get the penalty whilst we get mike dean explaining how of course it doesn’t fit the actual wording of the handball rule because it is a natural arm position for someone jumping.

I refuse to believe that all 20 teams wouldn't have received a penalty for that.
The fella leant into it, and immediately sold the pen with his reaction.
Do i think the bigger sides get big calls? 100% do I think that was a dodgy call? No.
They camped around Burnley's box all game, at some stage they were going to get a panic after a burnley tired 90 mins into it.

This is why it's so easy to justify VAR (and hide dodgy calls) because as long as you get all the tin foil hat wearers kicking off about what are clearly absolutely standard decisions, you can laugh off the legitimate criticisms the same way and put it all down to people just being biased. The one eyed way that some fans look at decisions is quite frightening.
This wasn’t given as a pen. Literally the match before the Burnley one.
As long as happy clappers keep trying to justify the crap corrupt decisions they will keep happening.
But the Burnley one was the right decision is the point being made. There's no point trying to make out like that decision was evidence of anything because it was quite obviously correct. Other decisions being wrong in the past is irrelevant, we know that's the case, but there's just no need to mention the decision yesterday at all because it was blatantly a penalty and I don't think i've seen anyone in the real world suggest otherwise, including the bloke who handled it or his manager.
Just a massive coincidence that it wasn’t given against Liverpool the week before then.
No team gets that penalty against Liverpool.
The point isn’t whether it is a pen or not (I agree it is), the point is the blatant corruption that means some teams get them and some teams don’t. Can’t have it both ways. If every team gets it then great. But they don’t.

Youre missing the complete point though.
The penalty yesterday was a penalty. Its not about who it was for. Its about the fact it's so stonewall. I'd actually go as far as saying it may be the most stonewall pen you'll see all year.

At least before VAR there could only be 3 corrupt officials, but now....

At least bad decisions get the crowd a bit more vocal, thus giving our players a lift.
Liverpool so far have had a penalty awarded and 2 red cards for the other teams in 4 games. They have also scored a winning goal in 90+10 against Newcastle when there was never that much added time.
Whereas we have played 4 and conceded 2 pens. By these odds Liverpool will get a penalty against us today and we will have a man sent off.
