Why was that West Ham goal after a handball allowed to stand when in our game Rodri’s was disallowed after the ball grazed Mahrez’s hand in the build up?

And why won’t City show videos of both in a press conference and ask exactly the same question?

NBC analysts laying in to the VAR decision to allow the West Ham goal. “I can’t believe they have deemed that as an accidental handball. It is clear and obvious that it was intentional. It gets worse with every angle you see.”

Because it’s in a different competition.

Because it’s in a different competition.

Surely the rules of football are universal though?

Carragher and Dyche together on sky, can it get worse?

 

[Barcon]

One very similar yesterday not given (or even looked at) for Newcastle at Spurs.
hits the spurs player upheld arm then his face and goes behind, decision a corner.

really can't understand 2 very similar incidents in 2 different games a day apart and different outcomes.

Could it just be that Mike Dean loves a penalty

It didn’t hit his upheld (right) arm. It hit his left arm which was tucked in against his body.
I though it hit his right arm (which he was waving around like an idiot) at first also.

The laws of the game are. Their interpretation aren’t, never have been and probably never will be.

Bet they still haven't discussed the tramps falling off a cliff?

They'd have a 2 hour special if forest had just turned us over.

Obviously FSG or whoever the tossers are who own them have briefed the press early doors today.

I'd have to see it again.

If you think his left arm is tucked in, I think you might need a visit to Specsavers!
