Var debate 2019/20

[M12Blue]

He’s trying to say they missed it , trying to snake out of the truth , damage limitation exercise if you ask me .

Until they come out and show the Newcastle hand ball var views it is hard to not to regard some of our decisions as an agenda.
Someone from the club should be on the phone asking for an explanation re- dermots comments

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

Yes, Tielemans.

A clear sending off, but not reviewed, and the ref didn't book him so can't have seen it properly. Exhibit B to go with the Newcastle handball Exhibit A.

The Villa one wasn't possible to review as the whistle had gone.

Just good old-fashioned poor refereeing......

 

[MillisleBlue]

Resolutely and stubbornly defending the indefensible - that must be Dermot's job-description. How about we settle on mouthpiece for incompetence and corruption?

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

It did go to VAR,thats my point,how can they say there was nothing wrong with the tackle?

Yeh - it's forgiveable for an official to miss something in real time on the pitch (player may have been blocking his line of sight, looking at something else etc), but for an official to see that from every angle and every speed and not want to over turn the onfield ref is pathetic at best.

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

A bar so high I doubt that even Sergey Bubka, at his peak, could get anywhere near it.

Very good

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

It’s more his comments afterwards essentially justifying it, saying he knew the defender was tired so stepped across him to force the challenge. I thought he had purposefully instigated the incident last week when the defender fell over and Kane fell over him, I gave him the benefit of the doubt on that occasion and said it could have gone either way because it was difficult to tell.

Now he’s told us all he’s a cheating cúnt I think he should be banned for trying to deceive the referee on two occasions now.

I know people will say he’s justified and if the defender makes an error/challenge he’s got every right to go down but that’s cheating in my book. We know players do it but it doesn’t make it right.

David Beckham engineering an early suspension against Wales springs to mind.......

 

[Onholiday(somemightsay)]

Gallagher is nothing but a creepy looking bald lying twat!

Not a fan then? ;-)

 

[asahartford1]

I don't subscribe to the bent against City theory but I am struggling to see how VAR spots our handball but not Newcastle's. Dermot shrugging and saying Var just missed Newcastle's handball actually made me want to punch him in the face!

The dis allowed Villa goal made many people want to punch someone and evidently they did.
The referees are not fit for purpose.

 

[old blue]

I thought it was Jimmy Somerville when I switched on this morning.

 

[Stoned Rose]

You e been saying the same thing for two weeks now, you sack it and don’t bother coming on here if that’s the way you feel.

Hammo at his scathing best again.

 

[hello]

V.a.r. is, at the moment, purely a tool to try & fuck up the enjoyment of football.

Pretty much nothing enforced by it, including the men's & women's world cups, has brought anything but
disagreement & to many, disappointment.

Most of its decisions are either shit, unfair or non existent. Red card instances are not acted upon, rules are not observed, nothing it does has any credibility, apart from goal line decisions.

It exists, purely to give excuses for its existence & serves no purpose in aiding football decision making.

It's as useful as hemorroids.

Unfair on hemorrhoid's as their existence can at least be used to check for early bowl cancer diagnosis, what side benefit to existence does var offer in its current guise?

Of course it missed it, they don't microscopically examine goals that teams score if it has no bearing on the title race

 

[Gordyola]

Exactly mate, the Newcastle one is clear as day. It’s not intentional at all as it comes off the defenders head on to his arm, however it then falls directly to the Newcastle player to score. Dermot tried claiming it wasn’t visible in real-time and from the camera angles VAR saw and that they weren’t “looking for handball”, absolute bollocks. Laporte’s wasn’t visible in real-time and I’ve still not seen conclusive proof it even hit Laporte’s arm/hand.

It’s as clear proof as anyone could ever wish to see of corruption in the game.

Exactly I will never accept the it was right to disallow the Jesus goal They examined the goal to find something to disallow it for, because it was for City. As it stands they have stolen 2 points off us which is exactly the agenda of liverpool fc winning the PL Nobody saw the Laporte's "handball" yet they found it, wheres the Newcastle one was clear on first viewing

That's a great shout mate, you worded it to a T.

 

[stonerblue]

Confirmation right there , where are the VAR apologists ?

All fucked off from this thread now

 

[stonerblue]

Ban 'Arry 'Otspur?!?!
England captain, hero and proper geezer?!?!
Perish the thought.
Chas'll be spinning in his grave.
Rabbit Rabbit.

Cheating tw@t

Gertcha...

 

[ultimateharold]

Someone else will have mentioned this but not one decision has been atleast been reviewed using the pitch side monitor in 40 Premier League games now - in this instance, technology has been provided that is not being utilised.

The PL decided it knew best so there aren't pitchside monitors in the division.

 

[Manchester1894]

4th game of the season out of the way, and yes there are still controversies, but more decisions are right than last season I'm pretty certain of that. I thought it would be MORE controversial than this due to the ref's stopping the game too much. But they've let the games flow ok, and diving seems to be really cracked down on.

I'd like to see more pitchside use of the monitors but understand we'd be getting out of the ground on a 3pm kick-off at 5.30pm if it was used like that in a top 4 match. :S

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

I think they're going to decide on using screens for the refs when we come back from the break.

It's not sustainable as it is at the moment and my god if LFC are hit by this shit there will be a meltdown starting with their pundits - spreading to their neutral pundit m8s and the newspapers that support Liverpool

And that is why they will not be hit by it.
