Don't ask daft questions
Teams who have benefitted from incorrect decisions so bad that they have resulted in apology from PiGMOL

United - 1
Bournemouth - 1

14/08/23 - United v Wolves ref - Simon Hooper, VAR Michael Salisbury - 1-0 United, Wolves denied clear penalty in the last minute as Onana assaulted Kalajdzic whilst going for a cross. +2 points United, -1 points Wolves.

22/08/23 - Liverpool v Bournemouth - ref Thomas Bramall, VAR Paul Tierney - Red card for MacAllister (Liverpool) over-turned on appeal. (I'm counting this as apology by default)

It leaves a sick feeling that by apologising they are admitting it was a mistake. Last night it was impossible to make a mistake. No where in the rules of football does it allow a player to takeout another player. If the refs dont know that sack them.

I'm still angry at the Rashford not interfering at the swamp last season. Now the first round of this season and it's clear utd will get all the help they need

Every official involved in last night game should be sack. Perhaps not the lineo doing the wolves back line.

Wire then up we pay good money so wire them up. Any ground that doesn't have a big screen should be relegated as their ground doesnt meet PL standards.

Isn't it just the Swamp and Klanfield that don't have big screens? I wonder why
 
As i have said in another thread an apology means nothing without the situation being resolved.

Ok so you have made an apology but why wont you publicise the audio between the ref and the var official, what do you have to hide? Why wont you make the refs explain why they have come to see these decisions what do you have to hide?

Its not incompetence. It is corruption and its organised.
Which is why no one will get the sack.
It's totally blatant. Just because its England, we
have this idea that corruption in football doesn't
take place. Just how many incidents and examples
do people need before they see it? The Premier
League is bent.

if you dont believe the premier league is bent at this point, you probably still believe in santa clause and the tooth fairy, the amount of evidence to show that it is unbelievable yet STILL people say that its not and you know who those people are, the stakeholders and wouldnt it just be in their best interests to say that.
 
If its a new policy of PGMOL to start apologising for incorrect (blatantly corrupt) decisions then they might as well just automatically issue a pre match apology prior to every united game for the inevitable "contentious" game deciding and point gifting decision which will go united's way.
 
what is glaring in this is how quickly its been brushed aside yet again, oh theyve issued an apology well its all okay then isnt it, why does the apology not include how and why they came to that decision? why has that been conveniently left out, why have the refs not been sanctioned for not doing their job properly.

An apology does not cover everything.
 
The on field ref didn't think it was a pen.
The 3 or 4 operators in the VAR cabin didn't think it was a pen.
Gary Neville has said it was a stonewaller, tells you everything you need to know about the state of the game.

Any other goalkeeper commits that sort of foul and the ref doesn't hesitate.

The on field ref bottled the decision last night and passed the buck to VAR. They didn't want to give it so kept showing replay after replay after replay from BEHIND the goal. The worst angle, when the best one was from the TV camera position looking down.

It's like they are trying to blinker us making the decision look tough, by keep rewinding the incident and fast forwarding it several times.

VAR should be binned or Howard Webb needs to come out and make these cheats accountable.
