VAR thread

[rudedog]

With VAR, if they get it wrong, is there any repercussions on the officials? If not, there needs to be. Something like 2 mistakes in a 3 month period and you're demoted to a lower league, that sort of thing? At the moment it feels like they are all a bit too 'safe' in their jobs, knowing that even if they do **** up, nothing will happen bar week off from officiating?

There'd be no one left after a couple of weeks

I'd rather Onana wasn't banned and played as much as possible

The lower leagues shouldn't have to suffer their incompetence.

Just watching SSN on this and you've got Gallagher unsurprisingly defending the refs saying they're doing what they've been asked.

For me, the officials have lost their way massively and rather than focus on doing the best job possible spend an inordinate amount of time trying to enforce petty and pointless directives; the lack of common sense or any sort of awareness that they're actually a large issue with the game at the moment is mind blowing.

How many piss poor decisions have their been this season already but let's focus on the stuff that adds nothing

Yesterday Pickford clearly said to a linesman "**** off you dickhead" and completely unsurprisingly nothing happened.

"Just kick it long" shows just how far up their own arses these refs are.

He should have kicked his balls long ffs.

About time more managers dished this out.

And, this protection of English players needs called out as well. Its ****ing rotten that.

Oof That’s ****ing great.

[RedReet]

Murphy and Shearer completely missing the point on MOTD.

Murphy- "Ultimately they lost because of poor defending".

Shearer- "If he's closed down he has to kick long, that decision doesn't take long".

[ChesterDave]

Apologies incoming tomorrow. No way the same refs in the same game with access to replays can make alternative calls on those handball decisions

I see in Crook's piece on the the Beeb, he is complaining over the award of a penalty in the Spurs/Arsenal game, saying it was never a pen? I know it wasn't intentional, but the arm was raised and the ball was going in if not the 'save'. Should that not be a penalty then, if it stops the ball going in, accidental or not?

He's a cunt for not picking Alisson after his wonder save against West Ham.

[Cerbie]

He's a cunt.

Fixed it for you
