Ref Watch

Disagree. The 1st one was a foul, the ref & VAR gave a corner. Incorrect decision reached by both. It should have been either a free kick just outside or a penalty

You really should know better than to come out with this if you are a referee.

Just seen Arsenal's penalty vs West Ham, Antonio was about a yard away and turning away with his hands near his chest and yet that handball was given as a penalty. Yet Maguire handball from a corner isn't considered a penalty with his arm out. Where is the consistency??

 

[SebastianBlue]

United should have given away a penalty for a handball by Maguire (who was already on a yellow), arguably a second later in the match, and Legworst should have been sent off in stoppage for clearly hitting out at the Forest defender.

But none of us are surprised they weren’t given.

Same for you with the nonsense you were spouting yesterday as a ref/VAR apologist.

I have said it before but if the ref cannot see that in real time he really needs to think about another occupation. Clear as day in real time

Oh he saw it alright. Thats not the issue

Just out of curiosity I looked at PiGMOLs wiki page.

the first line in their description basically tells it as it is. Surprised they haven’t changed it.

We are constantly short changed on injury time - most of the time we don't need it but it's the principal especially when the actual amount of ball in play is so low. Chelsea away 2 injuries in the first half and think it was 2 minutes given?

We could need it with GD though or on the odd occasion we're behind/level to get a winner.

Third time we’ve had him this season and all have been at the Etihad. It was he who sent off Cancelo, a decision that precipitated a touchline argument with Guardiola and, one could argue, brought his time at the club closer to its end.

So United's handball wasn't given due to it being a congested area.

So a new rule has been written

 

[BerkshireBlue]

For me this is a sackable offence for the VAR official, basically they've admitted they've seen it but decided to not apply the rules
