Ref Watch

[Chris in London]

Would love to see the stats of pens awarded in Manchester Derbies over the last 20 years! They seem to get a lot.

Easier if you do it over the last 10 years because that way you only have to count the ones the rags get

Why didn’t VAR intervene in the horrendous mistake the ref made over the Casimero foul on Akanji?

You mean the ‘clear and obvious error’ one ?

Thats the one.

Anyone know (for sure) the difference in penalty awards in Derby games over the last 15 years. I've been told we haven't had one.

The VAR will initially show him the best angle that supports his opinion that it’s a penalty. He’ll then ask if he wants to see any more angles or if he’s happy? It’s then up to the referee if he’s seen enough or wants to see alternate angles. They pretty much always decline.

Ok so the ref and var are equally culpable cheats

Last one we had in the league was the one Vassell missed, they have had dozens since

Think they’ve had quite a few in that period

They actually said that? Lol

A goal down and down to 10 men with 80 mins left! Do you really think pigmol would be allowed to do that?
