[Kippax Street 1880]

Tierney: Clear foul on the player in yellow.

Casemiro's tackle was even worse than that

Now that you mention it, surprised Akanji didn’t get a yellow card!

Explain to me why the Lindleof handball at West Ham wasnt given.

Its not the rule unless its us!! This is the law and none of it says thats a pen!!

It is an offence if a player:

• deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, for example moving the hand/arm towards the ball
• touches the ball with their hand/arm when it has made their body unnaturally bigger. A player is considered to have made their body unnaturally bigger when the position of their hand/arm is not a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player’s body movement for that specific situation. By having their hand/arm in such a position, the player takes a risk of their hand/arm being hit by the ball and being penalised
• scores in the opponents' goal:
  • directly from their hand/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper
  • immediately after the ball has touched their hand/arm, even if accidental

I only watch their games when they play us so I can't answer that.

Point being those sort of incidents seem to get given under the rules now, whatever they may be. I'd of wanted a pen if the roles reversed.

I think it should all come down to intent, of which there was none from Jack.

Watching that back, it is the first time I noticed that Casemiro actually tries to go full two-footed studs up in to Akanji again as the dirty **** falls. He literally thrusts out his legs for absolutely no reason other than try to make contact again.

Then he play acts as if he didn’t just go in to break Manuel’s ankle, with no contact on himself.

He is an absolutely detestable player and it is scandalous that Tierney called a foul from Akanji ON Casemiro.

Dumbfounding, really.

Fat faced Favella thug..always has been...sadly he's manufactured a way to get away with it time after time ..knows exactly what he's doing..scummy ****

 

[goater1985]

Can understand the ref missing it, not VAR. It isn't just another bad decision

That is an absolute shocker. We keep hearing about refs being transparent, I'd love to know how VAR interpreted that.

Red all day long that. Intent and very dangerous.

 

[Dirty Harry]

Apart from the Wan Bissaka handball that was conveniently ignored

I didn’t see this, any clips mate ?

 

[ShorehamCitizen]

Disband POGMOL.

Casemeiro got the free kick!!!!

 

[FantasyIreland]

Casemeiro got the free kick!!!!

And the cheating shithouse even had the temerity to cry out like he'd been the one fouled/assaulted by a stoods up challenge.

They are a despicable bunch of cunts that have to resort to such tactics,as well as ref backhanders,to even lay a glove on us.

Filth.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Casemeiro got the free kick!!!!

Once a **** alway a **** . Never liked him since his madrid days.

 

[halfcenturyup]

Just watched MOTD on coach back (6 hours and counting)... although it should never be the rule and subsequent penalty, current rules it probably is on the handball.

Also think foul on KDB was a pen and it didn't show the Twatemiro in highlights, only at the end of the show, looked a very recklace one.

VAR has clearly given them a number of decisions this season against us that are ridiculous in my view.

And still couldn't stop us :-)

Naah. That's the problem with the rules as they are written. They are so subjective you can justify either way after the fact as it suits. You have fallen for PGMOL's narrative that they had to give it. It's bollocks.

 

[Blue_Lightsaber]

We have got to sue PGMOL, FA and the PL.

Only when it hits their pockets personally will they change.. by saying Please Stop.

Or honestly does anyone see them stopping miraculously?

if not to call out the clear and obvious decisions that the ref has missed, what the fuck is VAR for?

 

[Chris in London]

And not one journalist will investigate it

They are part of the same industry.

 

[Chris in London]

I don’t think the refereeing was that bad. I actually thought he was good. It was the VAR which is shocking and shows they did their best not for us to win. Something very dodgy there.

Strange by name…

Is football becoming like horse racing where the officials deliberately adopt a handicap system to hamper the favourites?

Well you look how many pens the scum have had against us it’s in full flow

 

[blueinsa]

Honestly, I've been a blue for 40+ years and do I think there is a conscious bias - no, absolutely not.

Do I think all teams get rough decisions which VAR was meant to help eliminate? Yep.

Guys need to get a grip. It's verging on embarrassing to think that every shit decision is a deliberate attempt to deprive us.

I’ve been a blue for 40+ years mate and I will be kind here and just say I completely disagree, sorry.

You must have a poor memory, because it's not just one game now. It's multiple games we're seeing THE most weird decisions. And even united fans recognise that.
