Ref Watch City Games - 2023/24

[Don Karleone]

theyre in his ear all game

He does look to his left before he blows so you could be right. I doubt it'll be released though.

 

[Gordyola]

Blows points for free kick

Then blows again for moving ball

If when the foul happens if he was playing advantage he’d have raised two arm and not put the whistle to his mouth

Goes to blow sees an advantage so changes his mind more like it, then panics as he sees City might score

 

[Iassel]

Yeah we lost advantage with Jack attacking goal

As said earlier, he has either thought Grealish was off, which is a fuck up as he should check with the linesman or has imagined something that simply doesn’t exist. The second he’s blown he knows he’s fucked it, same as the second it left Haaland’s foot he knew he’d missed an open goal.

Without doubt he will be dropped for his fuck up. The face from Taylor on the sidelines said it all, he knew immediately his mate had fucked it.

 

[One Fan Clapping]

blowing up when jack was clean through was either a massive dropped bollock or cheating, why did he blow, was it for offside? because if it was he should have waited and let var sort it, so i'll call cheating!

100% bent.

Even Taylor knew.

 

[Paladin]

Just a man who crumbled when he needed to be on top of his game. Shit his nick-nocks

Why? The correct decision was to allow advantage. No pressure on him for applying this decision. In fact, he did play the advantage before changing his mind.

If he's crumbled to pressure, it can only be the pressure of someone telling him to act in a certain way. I.e corruption.

Im sorry i disagree. He shit himself. Panicked. He didnt know what to do for tge best and made a ridiculously bad call

How can he possibly think that Grealish was offside? He was miles behind him and wouldn't have the slightest clue whether he was offside or not.

He seemed to know what to do when he played the advantage. What more does he think he has to do?

 

[Gordyola]

That’s the rules and signals for a ref to do there’s no aiming involved

ONE or BOTH from IFAB

 

[Paladin]

There won’t be one that complies with the laws of the game as such. The only reason he’d blow his whistle is due to him thinking the advantage isn’t there. He’s clearly wrong on that. It’s not a rules issue as such, it’s clearly a refereeing error.

That's a matter of opinion. Mine is that he clearly played advantage and that is his decision for the foul. He isn't then entitled to make a second decision for the same incident. If having played advantage, no advantage ensues, that's down to City, not him.
