Ref Watch

[itsnevereasy]

There was foul given to them yesterday that seemed to take an age for the ref to give, clearly someone in his ear told him to given it to them.

PL or WWE?….

I presume the rags will get punished being unable to control there players after the offside goal.
The linesman absolutely shit his pants
Reminded me of Keane and his mob attacking Andy D'urso.

I felt sorry for the lino. You seen him set-off to follow the play and then slows down, knowing that it’s offside, so stops way out of line of play. To me, this says he’s already pressed the the button to inform the ref (same ref flagged for a close offside against Foden) but the ref wanted it to play out. Following the incident he is overcome with a gulf of United players, which is bad enough against the backdrop of an angry crowd, but the ref then comes over and questions your judgement.

That whole episode stunk of Atwell deciding the outcome, even if it was to be questioned later. Just look at the way Atwell questioned the lino before giving his angry gesture to it being a goal. Atwell knew, the lino knew, and everybody who has even the least knowledge of the game knew that it was a decision to manipulate the result.

There is no question in anybodies mind that it should have been called so therefore the question had to be ‘why’. I think we all know the answer to that.

"Let's bring in Peter Walton to agree with the VAR. Peter..."

On decisions, Walton will always try to hold off on his judgement until VAR have made theirs, then back-up what they say. Note that in this instance he made the call prior, which is very unusual for him. However, we already know that they are listening into the VAR so had it already been decided by them that they weren’t getting involved so the incident is left to ref on-field?

So many things not adding up, no wonder people are so annoyed and confused.

Maybe now but not when he first started. We had a running joke between us all as whatever he called was never how VAR ended up!!

He was a laughing stock!! Still is….

The only people to say it was the correct decision:

1) people who've never played the game
2) die hard United fans
3) idiots
