Premier League Games 6/7/8 Feb

Anybody with an ounce of common sense could see that was accidental for Christ sake, but the dynamic duo Dean and Mason aren't endowed with any at all. Dean probably walked over to the monitor and said look at me there Lee great position eh I'll send him off despite the player being "elbowed" saying it's an accident that will get me noticed.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

Two horrendous decisions in a week by Mike Dean, he needs to be suspended or demoted for a few games.

There seem to be no consequences for the refs. It's like they are doing what they are told by the people they report to.

 

[Mentis]

None of us know what was in his mind when he did it, but if it was that, it was a bloody daft manoeuvre, to lift it up to the height of the other players face. I’m not arguing it isn’t a debatable one, but I am saying it’s not the ‘outrage’, the ‘end of the game as we know it’ bullshit that the likes of Redknapp are saying it is.

Maybe me saying "obviously" is going overboard, but what sells it for me is the immediate reaction of pulling his arm away after contact. I see this move often in the box, but this is rarely the outcome.

2 dubious reds in a week from MD

I wonder what the betting patterns on reds are in his games?

Does that mean Soucek is out for the United games?

If they have any sense they’ll overturn it,but when did sense come into things with the FA.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Yes
I'm assuming its classed as a straight red for dangerous play

Thanks.

Ridiculous call and if he had to be talked into it by the worst ref the PL has ever seen then you know something‘s wrong. Probably mentioned it was United up next, makes their game a little easier.

Does that mean Soucek is out for the United games?

I'd like to think that will be appealed and overturned

Well if var can see the ball was over the line (Villa Sheff) last season and ignore it, they can make up what they want and get away with it.

 

[deano ou812]

Shall we have a sweep stake on what the refs or var will do to help the rags tonight?

Early sending off
Penalty for the rags (how many penalties might be more accurate)
Disallowed goal for Everton
All of the above

Your not far off the mark,how about Everton goal wrongly ruled out and rags go up other end and get a pen for a blatant dive ..

If they have any sense they’ll overturn it,but when did sense come into things with the FA.

To be fair, as the FA no longer own the PL referees and there‘ll be no clamour from the media, they should look at with impartiality.
