Corrupt Officiating Within the English game

Watching Fletch and Sav programme yesterday, and Webb was a guest along with Barton and Bently. The discussion was the weeks penalty descions in which ours at Everton were not even spoken about.

Barton stated that the Fellani handball incident would not have been given at the Swamp and Webb just looked at him and couldnt give an answer.

Bently made a remark about refs taking dislikes to certain teams and Webb just laughed it off.


Now this would have been a perfect chance for Webb to put up a defence of these comments but didn't or hasnt got a defence.

Regardless of whether you think the first one was deliberate handball or not, how the fuck were Villa not awarded one after Huth's assault?

Again, a media narrative will help explain it away as they did with the ginger pig countless times.

" thats Huth, he is physical, he always defends like that and he is passionate blah blah blah"

We are suffering from the "Sterling and now Kun are divers" narrative and like the general public where it quickly becomes an established fact, it does for the officials as well.

No, the discussion was the weeks handball incidents. Unless my eyes are going, I did not see Stones touch the ball with his hand.
 
Course it's fucking bent, anyone who thinks otherwise needs to take their head out of the clouds. All we can do is rise above and win, safe in the knowledge we certainly don't get the rub of the green, lol.
 
I know one of the linesman and he is honest and rarely makes mistakes,can't speak for the rest though but i think most of the current refs are inept and quite frankly shite,unlucky for us we keep getting the same ones who are deciding the games

You're mistaking errors in judgement for intentionally calling it the wrong way

The errors of judgement are so blatantly wrong one can be forgiven for thinking it is corrupt. Not are they only wrong but the following week we see the same referee sanctioning a player/team whilst previously letting an infringement go unpunished. I cannot think that there is a serious opinion that believes the tackle on Sterling by Stones was not a clear cut penalty. Yesterday there were incidents in the Villa v Leicester game, officiated by the same referee that if in his judgement he genuinely thought them not to be infringements then there are serious questions raised - questions of incompetence or 'influence'! And I can't believe that a referee would arrive at PL level and be incompetent. But when it's a penalty or sending off one week and not the next, what else might it be?
 
The vast majority of referees that I have heard comment on the introduction of video technology have been fairly vocal in their reservations and most don't want it. I wonder why that is when most other sports have embraced technology. Could it be that it would be a lot harder for them to give utterly unfathomable decisions, decisions that would be immediately overturned, making it much more difficult to have a real influence on the outcome of results?
