Referees' Performances | 2025/26

[Stephen230]

Why did he go over to their keeper and warn him about timewasting. He's not there to warn him, the keeper knows the rules so just give a corner because I lost count of the times he took anything from 10 to 15 seconds with the ball in his hands walking around and then putting it down to take a kick. Nobody will ever convince me that the Premier league haven't spoken to the PGMOL and told them to screw us at every opportunity because of the 115 charges. But try and not make it too obvious, just obvious a fucking nuff.

They can’t give a corner when they’re time wasting at a goal kick. Only when the ball’s in play.

I hadnt realised that, surely that makes less sense. It used to be such a simple game.

 

[Exeter Blue I am here]

Quite apart from his general ineptitude and his spinelessness in dealing with the time wasting, almost every single Spurs throw-in in that 2nd half was a foul. Only one foot on the floor for pretty much all of them

 

[eyalluvitt]

and of course the BBC.

A crazed witch-hunt over a nothing 50/50 coming together

Did I miss something. Thought the automated offsides would give a decision within seconds. The review for Spurs 1st goal must have taken 2-3 minutes

Not sure we should expect anything different despite what is promised.

It was more in hope than belief on my part that there was an offside call there yesterday, but it did take a long time.

Even the very knowledgeable Jamie Carragher didn't know the new rule.
So you are in company,though I wouldn't call it good.

 

[fierydan]

Just seen Mark Clattenberg has opined that we should have had a penalty for van de Ven on Bobb.
Says he's amazed VAR didn't pick it up.
We're not,happens too often to us!

And some are still convinced that the game isn’t bent,or biased in favour of certain clubs or trying to stitch other clubs up ..

 

[JRockBlues]

Was that pen given to the rags yesterday the 1st in the supposed clampdown on holding for this season? If it was then...

 

[TinFoilHat]

Darren Dipper England and Tierney on VAR again.

They still need to decide which frame to stop the footage on to influence the outcome

 

[Blue Mist]

The referee today, England, was worse than a Sunday league one.
Nothing to do with us being shit, I'm not making excuses but there must have been 5 ? drop balls because he stopped play for no real reason. He refused to let the game flow.

 

[Dereck Jeffries 3 wd]

Hoodwinked by Brightons cheating ( yes cheating) top points for their striker with his four rolls near the end to stop the game and waste time.

Our game relies on control and tempo.

Dipper England broke up the rhythm nicely.

No chance was that a pen, just like the Reijnders tackle 5 minutes in

 

[Don Karleone]

How was it not a pen?

 

[Feed the Elk]

How was it not a pen?

Sorry thought that was referring to the game today vs Brighton

 

[Don Karleone]

I thought Taylor was a bit shit, but nothing major stood out.


We have Atwell for Arsenal.

 

[mexico1970]

How was it not a pen?

It was 100% a penalty but they said VAR would make sure that mistakes like that wouldn't happen.

It wasn't a mistake though, it was blatant corruption or at the very least heavy red top bias.
