Ref Watch

[Paladin]

Mason isn’t out because of one error. He has officially made six incorrect VAR decisions this season.

I don’t know what the current running total is but to put it in context the total number of official incorrect VAR decisions before the World Cup break was also six, across the whole league.

Do you have a source for Mason being responsible for six VAR mistakes? I can only find reference to two.

To be fair, it was a horrendous ‘error’ by Mason to ‘forget(!)’ to draw the lines. It’s not just a judgement error, it’s pure negligence on his part. If he can’t even get that right, he shouldn’t be anywhere near a football match. Definitely sack-worthy IMO.

Why do you need a ref to draw lines on a computer image? Employ an IT expert.

Easy requirements :
1-sign nda
2- offshore accounts


You are hired.

Devil's Advocate here, I think it is certainly because it directly impacted a title race. And that race is between two teams. And one of them is us.

Yep. Similarly it seemed no one ever cared about Liverpool or United " running away with it " for decades or asked how to stop them.

I think you’ve missed the real issue.

Decisions are going to favour one particulars team ‘s attempt for a title and it ain’t us or arsenal.

Refs are bending over backwards for united like I’ve never seen. Against Leeds Maguire put two hands on the ball, var check couldn’t have been 5 seconds. Minutes later two blatantly offside united calls were scrutinized beyond belief in an attempt to see if they could grant them.

Similarly with one of the half a dozen penalty shouts for City against Brentford. VAR should be able to determine that a Brentford player had both hands on the ball and it was a penalty yet deemed " inconclusive ". There were a few penalties that were waved away for City against United too and then they got the decision to give them an offside goal that changed the game.

Scapegoat or pleased to help PGMOL for due consideration?

This made me think of the incident for the mistake when Wolves winning goal was ruled out against Liverpool and the television company accepted responsibility?

I've just watch Arsenal highlights and when Nketiah collides with Ederson and is on the floor, he actually thinks Taylor has given a goal when he points to the penalty spot!! He runs away to celebrate. Not one player appeals for a penalty and are shocked when it's given. There are incidents like this in every match that are never given. Bent as fuck!!! All the commentators with hindsight say penalty correctly given but not one called it at the time. All complicit. I'd love us to win the league more this year than any other just to boil more piss.

A similar incident happened years ago when City were playing United in a cup game, the ball was put into the box from a corner, the referee blew his whistle, everyone looked mystified and the referee awarded a penalty to United. City were one nil up at the time.

Wow ! that doesn’t sound right in many levels.

It seemed strange to me too. I just read that the camera operator had zoomed in too quickly and that's what led to the confusion? What about the officials?

I’m intrigued as to how you know so much detail about a game you haven’t watched?

Working from home it's the best I can manage when on shift.

Alan Wilkie… cheating bastard

 

[Gone for a Burton]

Mason basically sacked off for mistakes.

Why was the **** at rag land not sacked for the most obvious case of cheating and result manipulation seen in recent history ?

Clear & Obvious !!

Not sure thats accurate. VAR admitted that the cameras didnt cover the entire pitch at Klanfield. This is a VAR Set up issue, not A TV companies issue/responsibility.

**** watch more like it. Fucking sick and tired of them.

Watch all the Arsenal v City match vlogs (I Know...I know) everyone in the Arsenal sections think a goal is given via goal line technlology .Eelveryone then seems confused when the penalty is awarded .

 

[RayCTID]

It was a soft decision but fingers crossed he will do the same for our beloved rivals. And no he was clever bullshit from the pundits if that happens as well
