ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

People still not having that match fixing and corruption is occurring, even after evidence is smashing us around the temples such as this, proper baffles me.

“The tech is just being used wrong”

“Refs are people, they make honest mistakes”

Christ alive, wake up.
Repeat a lie enough and it becomes the truth - is Sky's and PGMOLS policy in my opinion - all this ref watch garbage facilitates this too.

Christ alive, wake up.

It’s two completely subjective opinions lined up on top of each other which gives authorities the ability to fix any decision they want.

Ref makes a call on the field - subjective
VAR makes a decision of whether to overturn it or not based on a subjective view on what clear and obvious error is - subjective

There’s always something for them to hide behind. If the ref makes an incorrect call on the pitch but they like the outcome and want to keep it in place they just say there wasn’t enough of an obvious error to turn it over.

It means the games just exist on margins. If a Liverpool player goes down in the box the ref just gives a pen and then it’s got to be irrefutably wrong for the VAR to overturn it. So something that may never have been a pen gets given and it’s ’a soft one but the letter of the law’

Other clubs just don’t get given hardly any pens and so when VAR look at a incident they just say ‘yes there’s contact but it’s not clear an obvious to overturn the on pitch decision’.

They just basically referee the outcome they want and then get VAR to add legitimacy to any decision and no one can appeal against it because you have this stupid clear and obvious rule that provides complete protection for what is essentially two subjective decisions on top of each other!
 
Apparently you can be 5cm (2 inches) offside and still be onside. Fair enough if that is the rule but it must mean that his feet are very small (no more than 5cm) since all of his foot was ahead of the defender.

I asked chatGBT if its possible for a human to have 5cm feet

"Short answer: almost certainly no for a typical human, especially an adult.


  • 5 cm (about 2 inches) is extremely small for a human foot.
  • Even full-term newborn babies usually have feet around 7–8 cm or more.
  • Feet around 5 cm would only be seen in very rare cases, such as:
    • Extremely premature infants, or
    • Severe congenital skeletal or growth disorders that affect the entire body
  • For children, teens, or adults, feet that small are not biologically realistic for a viable, functioning human body.

So:


  • Healthy adult or teen: ❌ No
  • Typical newborn: ❌ No
  • Rare medical cases (infants): ⚠️ Possibly, but extremely uncommon

If you’re comfortable sharing—did you mean 5 cm, or could you have meant 5 inches? (That’s a very common mix-up.)"
