Ref Watch

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Handball starts at the end of the short sleeved shirt as per below picture. So the top part of the under arm isnt considered handball

Once upon a time handball started where yer arm started - at the shoulder, not halfway down yer arm. How anyone, and I suspect it's an explanation to come from PiGMOL, hastily added to the LotG by IFAB following a ref's and VAR decision not to award a penalty for an incident in the Rag or Dipper area, can say that 'catching' the ball betwixt ribs, armpit and upper arm is not using yer arm to play the ball will probably tell yer black is white, white is black and Jonny Iron Lung Moss is the world's best ref!

I don’t think we can grumble too much today

Agreed. Things have changed a bit on big decisions the last few games. I can't help thinking we gave the PL another one of our "refereeing" dossiers.

Nobody has had the guts to point out that we should have had a penalty in the first half against Wolves for a clear and obvious handball.

And another one when Sterling taken out in the second

Where was the pundit's outrage for that one? It's almost like they have some kind of agenda and only pick certain incidents to fit their narrative!

Weird they outsource to America .Maybe one of the two red bastard has some influence if that’s the case .

Nah. Fenway Glazer Associates who do the assessing are completely independent and without bias.

Wow! seriously if this is true then i’m speechless.
Hope you saved all your hard work compilations of these corrupt refs fuck ups in a harddrive or cloud .

You know how Tierney reffing with Kavanagh on VAR has caused a bit of a row this weekend just gone?

On Sunday, we have Kavanagh reffing with Tierney on VAR. No pressure then.

1 tackle, oh the outrage...meanwhile...






but no, only 1 fucking tackle against a Dipper that wasn't as bad as any of these gets front page headlines to distract from the fact the same dirty sod got sent off for something worse.
