Ref Watch

[hertsblue]

Blew early, could have easily added another minute due to their play acting but in truth it was another of those games where we could have played for 24 hours and not scorEd

 

[Xhavenjoe]

No but he was clearly bias toward Chelsea.

You're clutching at straws there.

Why does it feel like every handball in the area is replayed and overanalysed unless it’s us in the champions league

 

[herrock]

No complaints about him from me.

Why is the ref to blame for you not seeing a replay of a potential handball? What you see is purely down to the TV company he's not a bloody TV director. Var looked at it, it wasn't a handball, it was done quickly as everybody wants. As for the fist bumps, he did exactly the same with our players pre-match.

Not saying he controls the replays but it’s a big decision he could have got wrong which would have meant he had a bad game but we won’t know thanks to the lack of replays which is odd and seems to be a constant thing with city we see plays of everything and constant camera zooming into fans and pointless stuff but when Refs or VAR gets something wrong no replay or proper replay especially when it negatively affects city or has positively affect a team in red

I did not see him do the same with are players in terms of laughing joking fist bump but it did it on two occasion with Chelsea it looks bad especially given his record

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

He was a bit keen on the whistle but not the reason we lost.

 

[Seedy Ron]

He’s a horrible twat whether people feel he was fair tonight or not. I think he was not.

 

[bluesteel]

No complains from me

Would it not be wise to assume we would have seen it by now if there was anything even remotely contentious about it? He made a decision quickly which everybody wants, var would have intervened if he was wrong. The ref walked over to foden before kick off to give him a fist bump, there's nothing whatsoever in it. The ref had a good game.

Why would it given that exactly when we seem to see less of it

 

[imrebanana]

Nitpicking I know cause I’m miffed, but he did point to a goal kick instead of a corner right in front of him which could and I mean could, have led to a goal. Or was I pissed. Other than that, better than I was expecting.

 

[deano ou812]

Meh ref actually had a good game can’t really complain maybe the rudiger incident with de bruyne could have been a red as he knew what he was doing the cnut,hope he gets fucked up by someone in the euros playing for Germany if the shithouse plays ..

if you want to believe var is out to get City then that's your choice, but why didn't BT even look at it? And if they're in on it too, why isn't it at least all over social media?

 

[Damanino]

was scared given his history with pep but pretty good game overall. refs were pretty much on point in knockout games this season unlike some previous ones.

Was the same in the Thursday cup final on Wednesday.

Was it a Villarreal handball, was Cavani offside. Fuck all VAR reviews shown on screen.

Not just us that have to endure either the game continuing or the ref stood their like a gormless twat waiting for the decision from Nyon.

 

[give it to gordon]

Thought the ref was ok

Would like to see the possible handball again.

But than again going by the ref actions the handball law must have changed again. It seems you can knock the ball onto your arm and its not handball. I didnt know that.

We could have been playing all night and I still don't think we would have scored :(

 

[jimmygrimblesboots]

Was worried about the ref pre-game , but he was Ok and let the game flow , thought James was a handball and it didnt come off his chest as the ref suggested , but we didnt deserve anything from that game , no complaints from me

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

No complaints
He let a lot of things go, including several fouls from Gundogan before he booked him
Would have liked to have seen a few more replays of the James handball
The two that they showed were pathetic angles

 

[mmc]

Was it a handball though? Why does it seem like a blackout of any replay on the bloody thing! Can’t find a clip of it anywhere other than when it looks like it strikes his arm from a mile away. Just so odd!
