Get your popcorn out for Silvas interview.

 

[meeesh]

Or maybe it could be the saviour of the game if that happened

I vaguely remember Bruce taking his team off v Arsenal after a dodgy goal happened, Sheff U or Birmingham I think - but they came back on, I wouldn’t I’d be right lads get trackies on and I’ll ring the coach driver and we out of here

[meeesh]

So would I,but the premier league would deduct something like 10-15 points off a team if they did it ..oh plus a huge fine..

Oh deffo mate, a proper big fine and as you say a large points deduction, be funny though as they’d appeal it and would drag on for ages a bit like something else I could mention:)

 

[Tracking back]

It’s got so much worse under Webb and it wasn’t great before hand. It’s going to take a team to walk off and forfeit the match for any real change to take place. If I was Fulham, I would have walked off today, let the chairman call it so the manager isn’t banned. It’s the poor standard officiating more than the technology and then the same awful officials put on Var and there is no explanations for the awful decisions yet a manager gets a ban if he calls it out.
It’s disgusting blatant cheating, no one can be that incompetent at their job so often and it favours certain teams and owners.
Fulham have been fucked over 2 games running now, it has to be called out.

You're right it's blatant cheating.

The real problem is how do you counter it?

It's almost as though PiGMOL and Webb are stood there with arms stretched out saying: "yeah? and what are you going do about it?"

 

[Prestwich_Blue]

Sessegnon definitely had his arms out but really surprised at the lack of consistency re fouls & handballs. Well I would be surprised but PGMOL are shite

It was a penalty all day. His arm blocked the ball. We'd be furious if that happened against us and it wasn't given. The only complaint is that it was so obvious the ref shouldn't have needed VAR.

The only circumstances in the build up that should stop it being given are offside, a deliberate handball to control the ball or a foul that stops a defender making an intervention. There was nothing in that build up that qualified as an incident that should have led to Sessegnon's handball being overruled.

Onana not dropped. Hes got a cold. The first thing he's caught since he went to the twats

We always have to beat the opponents & officials every game

Well the PL employ the officials, which hardly ensures that their role remains impartial imo, especially when it seems apparent that certain clubs do not appear to get the same "rub of the green" as others.

Fulham can rightly feel pissed off today.

I agree that Sessegnon's arm was away from his body, making it unnaturally larger and was rightly flagged. However, Caicedo standing on Iwobi in the build up was the equivalent to the foul on Chalobah that ruled out the Fulham goal. 'Deliberate' handballs aren't the only type that are punished in the laws of the game - accidental handballs can also inadvertently control the ball/prove advantageous to the attacking team and can be used to rule out goals. Pedro's arm was away from his body and the ball hit his hand in the build-up, it's down to interpretation. Hence, why the decisions didn't seem consistent

i agree, you can reason with the penalty decision what you cant reason with is the ref ignoring the three offences from chelsea in the lead up to it.

 

[deano ou812]

Of course spurs of course

 

[citytill1die84]

[I'm Blue]

Marco restrained but rightly fuming.
