VAR

You can't have different rules for different teams it is just laughable.

Prem has been like that for years

Just to change the subject from the RS. After watching the Newcastle game how was that not handball and a penalty compared to the penalty given against Tarkowski at Leeds.

The ref Got that one correct. Tarks should have been a yellow too.

How was Haaland's a red? 'Stopping an own goal scoring opportunity'?

I’m guessing no a red could have been awarded for stopping the defender from clearing the ball before it crossed the goal line. The exact reverse of stopping a goal scoring opportunity.

I don't think that's a thing
Would just be no goal free out presumably

I think we both forgot to add in the fact it was against a Liverpool player.

Definitely a red card.

On the one hand it seemed sorted on the field, but on the other hand.

1. Not applying the rules properly sets a bad precedent.
2. A goal was scored, which does affect the table, though obviously in a somewhat minor way.

It seems silly, but they have to bring it back.

Minor way? Liverpool would be 7th if it had counted. You get that? SEVENTH!

Seventh! Behind Brentford! In 7th!

Fair, but I was thinking more the top of the table. Citeh still do have a chance to catch up and they're relatively close in GD.

Still in front of us of course.

 

[Tipp blue]

How was Haaland's a red? 'Stopping an own goal scoring opportunity'?

Stopping a player clearing a goal, You cant haul down a defender as the ball is heading towards the line. If there was no first foul and Haaland did that he's have been sent off.

 

[Tipp blue]

How is Haarlands a red?

Are you telling that if Branthweight was coming back to clear a ball off the line and an opposition attacker hauled him back preventing the clearance you wouldn't be calling for a red?

 

[Tipp blue]

Still in front of us of course.

Thew were gifted about 10 points in the first 5 games at the start of the season, loads of goals coming in the 98th minute or later.

Let's say for arguments sake that Sbozlai was always getting there first and Halaand was the only one who did any pulling. Then that's a free kick to Liverpool and a yellow for Halaand, at that point it's just a cynical/professional foul.

Sbozlai is denying a certain goal and has to be shown a red if his actions prevent the goal.

I think of it like the grace defenders get for clearing out their man after they get their shot off, even if the keeper saves or they miss.

Be a yellow not a red. But obviously the goal wouldn't stand if it went in.
