No matter how outrageous we think the decision was, there will always be a coterie of ex-refs who think that whatever decision was given it was the correct one. Had it been allowed, it was the correct one. Had it been disallowed it would have been the correct one. No other sport on the planet is so abysmally arbitrated as football, and probably within football the most abysmally arbitrated league would be the PL.
VAR causes more problems than it solves these days, both the English and Scottish leagues have been manipulated this weekend to get the outcome the governing bodies & Wayne Rooney desperately want
I'd rather listen to my own death rattle than listen to the opinions and rantings of this deluded, fat, wig-wearing, granny shagging, rag has-been.Meanwhile, away from twitter fantasyland, the real Wayne Rooney said:
"It's a clear foul," Rooney said on the Wayne Rooney Show.
"You're going to obviously get a lot of people saying they think it should have stood because it's controversial and probably all the [Manchester] City players, staff, fans are going to say it should have stood. And then you're going to get all the Tottenham fans, players, staff saying it shouldn't have stood and of course the Arsenal fans and stuff.
"But it's a clear foul. I think you can clearly see the arm crosses his face and it impacts him getting to the ball. So I think it's the right decision.
Wayne Rooney says VAR did 'a really good job' in making a crucial call in Arsenal's win at West Ham
Former England and Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney believes the video assistant referee "did a really good job" in disallowing West Ham's late equaliser against Arsenal.www.bbc.co.uk
As bad as it is losing a title to that decision, getting relegated may be even worse
Boothroyd was the biggest journeyman nobody in existence.
West Ham should take the cunts to court.
sorted for you ;)
Good man Joe.
On what basis? They would have to prove that the decision was made through deliberate illegal malice, which it wasn't. Even if they didn't have to prove that - even if they only had to prove that the decision was made through incompetence - the fact that so many people do think it was a foul on Raya would also make it very hard to prove that PGMOL were alone in thinking it was a foul. So that would be a waste of everyone's time and a total non-starter.
Penny for our one time VAR apologist bluehammer’s thoughts
Nah if they do go down they will be straight back up, the gap between the prem and the championship is getting bigger every year
Never thought of that.
