Ref Watch

That's not what it says.
Yes, it does, falls under "intensity of a foul challenge". In addition, it also says that OFR should be used for a match changing decision late on, which this was.
 
It was our decimated defence that meant we didn’t pick up all the points today. Not the referee.
Still in our hands.
At nil nil it was in our hands. Give us the penalty, Taylor/var and it changes the game.... if we (cough) score the bloody thing that is.
Yes the defence was decimated but we need fairness and honesty from refs.
 
Alty just shit, how many times can Antonio go down?

As for both pens, he's shit enough to miss them but VAR should be giving both, even the one we got VAR has to ask him to look at it.
He was looking straight at the 2nd pen, a stonewaller if ever there was one and he still had to have his arm twisted by VAR to give it. Dreadful bias and incompetence.
 
Intensity of a foul challenge is for whether it's Serious Foul Play or not.
Apparently the "premier league shareholders" make the rules about the referee going to look at the monitor. Given how high a bar they've set for "clear and obvious" the referee going to look at the monitor is a time-wasting formality.

 
they got away not giving the first one which was a stonewall pen,the ref tried to get away from giving the second and once VAR looked at it they had to give it as it was far and away a stonewall pen,they would have been found out if they hadn’t of given that second one and even hard line non believer’s of match fixing and corruption would be hard pushed not to see what they are trying to do …

Not asking for much are you ?

When have PiGMOL reps ever provided those characteristics ?

I think they can easily not give both, nobody in the media would highlight it. Rival fans would just laugh. We would be furious but we would just be pissing into the wind of anti City corruption.

Sorry which ‘first one’ are we talking about - didn’t see it in the ground
 
It wasn’t clear on first viewing. On first look it looked like Jesus was trying an overhead kick and was just falling backwards. It was only on the replays that you saw the kick.

That was on VAR for not giving it, can’t blame Taylor for that.
I accept Taylor might have missed that and that is what var is supposed to be for. If that was the only contenious decision I would not be posting on here, but he fidnt just miss one, he missed both. That stinks.

Exactly you can excuse missing one but two nope,also more concerned why VAR didn’t think the first one wasn’t a pen as nailed on as they come …

As someone has said in the var thread, forget who, rags and dippers get both given by the ref and then they see if Var says no.
The second was so nailed on, even bent fuckwit Neville said it was clear so I think it would have been too embarrassing even for Pigmol to deny it.
 
Apart from not giving the penalty straight away, I thought Taylor did well, if anything he seemed to favour us in the 50/50 decisions. The “Alty” fan doesn’t want Liverpool to with the quad either!
 
If you get awarded a pen by var with minutes to go, to win the game, surely you can’t claim much more. Unless the next conspiracy is Mahrez is in on it too. Disappointing it wasn’t given straight away, but var which apparently was going to shaft us today, did it’s job.
