Was it the same ref?

Friend was on VAR on the Brighton game, ref today. VAR didn’t review this one at all, mainly because the Leeds player didn’t hurl himself to the ground two steps later.

Dont forget the triple salko Welbeck threw in for good measure.

Could really use a win and a good performance from Arsenal. 

Doesn't seem likely as they are now even bigger surrender monkeys than they were under the last fella.

Spurs 2-0 with two shots on goal.

Another shite VAR decision has ruined the West Brom v Palace game when it was 1-1 

Yeah you can say he kicks out, but again the minute you have to check numerous times and in slow motion then you can guarantee the officials will come to the wrong decision

More than that, plan to have English players get into the box and go down; make it a key part of Alexander-Arnold and Henderson’s game. It’s a no-brainer in Premier League football today.

5:1 now to the owls lot. 

[dandyman]

Benteke has scored 2 goals against WBA, not own goals either.

 

And no, that’s not a misprint!!

[Mathewbet1]

Did'unt realise that Benteke cat was still a thing, he's like soooo 2014.

[Leyton388]

At the start of the season IFAB said all pitch side reviews would be shown in real time and no slow motion yet the crayon eaters in the Premier league are showing these incidents in slow motion making them look worse. 

 

Its a fucking farce and I am almost done with the game completely. There was a time when Liverpool not winning would completely ruin my weekend but now I'm not even that arsed as the joy of the game has been killed.

Nonsense. Nothing about this is clear or obvious.

Martial and Cavani to have scans. Hopefully out for a while.

He is a wanker but he doesn't mind calling things like this out. Fuck Stoke. Cant stand them.

Just ridiculous. Competitive match, good entertainment on a Sunday morning. Then the VAR kills it.

 

 

[dockers_strike]

Haha, fuck off Wilder. Maybe 5 subs would have helped?

[Stickman]

Vardy is a great striker as soon as he tan clear you knew it was a goal ...

[manwiththestick]

This made me laugh on the beeb!

 

[Jairzinho]

The positives being that next season they'll be playing against much weaker teams every week.

[dockers_strike]

To be honest, that stage of the game, the sheffield lad should just have hauled vardy down when he had the chance. Yep, red card, 3 game ban but might have hung on for 1-1.

I actually don’t mind them slowing things down and taking time to look at things.  Sometimes the camera angles are poor and it might take a few looks to see the intent of the player.  After about 10 looks at that though no way is it a red card.  It’s absolutely crazy.  It shows how influenced the refs are going over to the screen though.  I used to say the clamour for refs to look at the screens last year wouldn’t fix anything and if anything they’d be more likely to just stick with their own decision.  It’s the complete opposite though which is just as bad.

Cannot understand for the life of me why he didn’t do it.  It wouldn’t have been a 3 game ban because it wouldn’t have been violent.  Just pull him down.  Instead he’s actively jumping out of his way 10 yards outside the box.
