Ref Watch

Looked like Milner was trying to get into the Guinness Book of Records today:
"Most fouls deserving of a yellow in one game".

Along with tierney "Most fouls deserving of a yellow in one game that I didn't get the yellow card out for" = git

Standard of refereeing in the PL is an absolute joke. Tierney should be demoted after today's debacle, I thought he was bad after Brighton last season, but today is not acceptable.

The tragedy of it all is that he seems to be getting promoted to ref the "bigger" games, dodgy git
 
We have so few good refs in this country that the inferior ones keep getting the big games. I can give the benefit of the doubt on the penalty but the sending off was a no brainer. Poor game

Thing is you could argue for a red card for the first instance, where he never even gave the foul. It could have been a penalty, but equally it could be a last man foul on a player with a goal scoring opportunity.

Followed by 2 definite yellow cards, 1 not given.

A bizarre refereeing performance, which hopefully (but unlikely) will get him "relegated" for a few games.

Bottom line is, he's shit, and shouldn't be in charge of a big game ever, hell I'd sooner have had "alty" taylor in charge.

The worse thing from Tierney after Milner's foul was him laughing at Phil Foden who was going mental about the tackle.
Fucking laughing in the face of a pro who was seeking an explanation as to why Milner wasn't getting booked and shown a red.

What a cnut

That was particularly infuriating because Phil is one of the very few honest players left in the game. For Tierney to laugh at him like that speaks volumes for the level of officiating in the game these days.
 
How many yellow card offences did Milner commit today?

His performance was at best inept,but it comes as no surprise when people are claiming corruption.

There is no fathomable explanation as to why everyone else on the planet recognised Milner had committed several offences worthy of caution/sending off,while he saw otherwise.

Calling him a useless **** doesn't do him justice,he deserves to be fucking sacked.

Only problem is his boss is just as corrupt!

That will be the VAR that doesn't look at yellow card offences? Or are you thinking of a different VAR?

  • SENDING OFF OFFENCES ;)
  • denying a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity to an opponent whose overall movement is towards the offender's goal by an offence punishable by a free kick (unless as outlined below)
  • Where a player commits an offence against an opponent within their own penalty area which denies an opponent an obvious goal-scoring opportunity and the referee awards a penalty kick, the offending player is cautioned if the offence was an attempt to play the ball; in all other circumstances (e.g. holding, pulling, pushing, no possibility to play the ball etc.) the offending player must be sent off.

That‘s the media’s defence…. Everyone makes errors including referees…. It’s just that these errors almost always seem to favour teams in red….

Have also watched the highlights back and again the greedy bastard pushes foden outside the box but trips him inside

My mistake because originally I thought that the foul was outside the box, but like you said the trip was inside.

Ironically, it was ‘looked at‘ by VAR and they thought there was no foul at all. Bizarre doesn’t quite describe that point of view.
