Ref Watch

[blue b4 the moon]

Remember that game well. It was so f*cking obvious at the time. Another one of those games where it was 12 against 11.

Shows how bad it was that all those years ago it still really pisses me off and we won 6-1 & we had a great weekend at my mates down there.

I still stand by what I said about the keeper getting a touch. Watch the ball and the spin on it. Both players connect almost at the same time (at real speed) like a double tap or a double click like when you opened this thread. As someone else said though, the defender can get a touch and it still be a penalty. No doubt it WAS a stonewall penalty.

Phil needs to wise up in this situation though. It's one thing to try and stay on your feet or scramble back to them when outside of the box when we are counter attacking or getting at their last line of defence. Inside the box is different though and attention needs to be put back on the ref after such challenges.

They need to implement a challenge system although they would make us use ours in the first 60 mins of most games.

Premier League to send clubs survey to get feedback on ways to improve VAR for 2020/21 season

VAR has been responsible for a number of controversial decisions this season; the latest was the call not to award Phil Foden a penalty after he was tripped by Alex McCarthy during Man Citys win over Southampton on Wednesday

I am sorry mate but there is no touch on that ball from the keeper. Check out the clip shown in the above interview with Dermott Gallagher. From one angle behind the goal it looks as if there might be, but from another ie down the pitch, you can see the keepers foot is actually nowhere near the ball at the same moment.

Even if what you say might in some alternate reality be true, the keeper's trailing leg had already made contact with Phil's right leg so still a foul regardless.

I've ran the video through some editing software frame by frame and at no point, both angles, does McCarthy touch the ball not even near

VAR had the ability to do this last night (probably with more than 2 camera angles), and yet still came to the wrong conclusion.

ONLY 2 possibilities exist:

1. They are covering up sh*t refereeing.
2. They are covering up bent refereeing.

Neither of those reasons justify the existence of VAR.

Fucking Marriner for the game at the weekend, joy.

I am sure if the keeper's foul on Foden had been on a Southampton player the VAR would have intervened and a penalty given.

Whereas I am sure that if our 'keepr had fouled a Southampton player in a similar way in which Foden was fouled, the ON FIELD ref would have immediately pointed to the spot and then VAR would have agreed with him.

There's a huge difference between your and my views.

As I said earlier a different set of standards was applied to each team.
