Ref Watch

He's also full of shit, the Rodri handball wasnt a 'howler', it was the correct decision according to the bullshittery of the laws that were in place last year.
Don't get me wrong, in any other year that would be a handball but because of the 't-shirt line' law they brought in to help out VAR the fact that the video replay showed that the ball may have touched above that imaginary line meant it couldn't be a penalty under their stupid VAR guidance.
The fake outrage over the Rodri incident is just gaslighting to make the scousers feel better and to gloss over the mess they've been making with changing the rules to better suit VAR.

Yeah, not a fan of calling it a howler - although I wouldn't have been surprised if it was given as a pen. Considering how close it was, odd to frame that as a howler

The law is fine, the issue on Saturday was the incompetent/spineless/cheating **** Attwell failed to do what he is very well paid to do which is to follow it.
All of this shite about subjective/grey areas/open to interpretation is bollocks.

The law was changed 2 years ago when we benefitted against Villa when Rodri came from an offside position to tackle Mings and set up Bernardo.
Mings wasn't in control of the ball as stated in the laws at the time so the goal was correctly given
The referee followed the law even though Walton made a tit of himself live on air by saying that referee didn't.
The law was changed because of this.

There was an outcry then to ensure this couldn't happen again.
Saturdays scenario won't happen again providing the referee follows the law and does what he is paid to do.

Nah, Mings 100% had control - that was why the law was changed. Mings trapped the ball, then had a second and third touch before being challenged.

When you say about the referee doing what he is “paid to do”….?
 
Hopper was poor there is no doubt we get treated differently than the opponents There is a deliberate tactic being used against City if we are getting momentum. Everton being the best example, an player will fake injury and either we stupidity stop play or the ref does, the ref goes over and generally the player makes a miraculous recovery or they get treated for cramp crucially they don’t leave the field. Last night hooper stop play when City were moving forward to check upon a Spurs player who appeared to be “injured” on the touchline this is despite Spurs not stopping play when they had the ball He ran over to him and yep he had a miracle cure
There needs to be a ruling that if player receives treatment by physio or another player, or play is stop due to a possible injury the player has to leave the play for 5 minutes Let’s see then if they want to fake injury then

The head injury is the latest trick being used. Play must be stopped and I reckon most managers are getting players to do this to break up play.

It was because Mings attempted to play the ball.
Found this article, I thought it was about having control.
The law was changed but the point was the referee (Moss) applied the law correctly, something Attwell failed to do on Saturday.
