There have been a few marginal incidents (not necessarily directly related to their goals, to be fair).Proof will be in the pudding on that one. If everyone’s fears prove correct, I’ll be done with the sport. I wouldn’t see the point.
But there hasn’t been any of their goals remotely close to needing var yet. I’m sure that will change when they stop playing shite.
In the Norwich Chelsea match yesterday there was a very similar offside decision which the Lino kept his flag down for, Chelsea went on and scored it was reviewed and was onside just We saw multiple replies as well as the VAR.It was my understanding that 'close calls' (the commentators said it was very close, conveniently there was no replay) would not be flagged and then if it lead to a goal etc it would be VAR'd at stop of play...that clearly didn't happen on this occasion when Sterling is clean through.
That + the pen today have really fucked me off. It's a joke in its current guide and I have zero confidence that it will/can be improved.
Nothing that var deals with though.There have been a few marginal incidents (not necessarily directly related to their goals, to be fair).
Fixed that for you.they are not trying to disguise their contempt for us, it official you can now tread on someones foot because that is now not a foul if the ref on the pitch doesn’t give a penalty
Fixed that for you.
If you believe it’s bent then why do you even bother?
Can you tell me, if it’s bent, then why has no decision on a penalty been overturned in 29 matches rather than just us? Or is that to make it less obvious as well?
As for 3 in 3 being suspect, was it or was it not a penalty on McTominay (sp?) yesterday?
But other teams have one match where a VAR decision goes against them, we have had 3 out of 3. Two clear penalties not given, two perfectly good goals disallowed. You quote the Rags but they spent the entire match diving and falling over, perhaps the referee thought McTominey had dived again so didn't give it. I say it is bent because they refuse to over rule their mate, that is bent.
You’re talking biased crap. Every set of fans (just about) hates var already, everyone thinks it’s screwing them and that’s after 3 games. I’m sure it will be unanimous by game week 15. Var is absolutely not fit for purpose and their rules on ‘clear and obvious’ just have to change. But that doesn’t mean that City are the one and only target and saying that is the case is pure paranoia.
With the current implementation, that’s not much of a distinction. ;-)Nothing that var deals with though.
According to var, there hadn’t been a single clear and obvious error in 28 matches.clear and obvious error
Have Liverpool been on the recieving end yet?If you believe it’s bent then why do you even bother?

Yeah but sure the refs needed more help
Not yet no. But having watched all three of their games, there hasn’t been call for it yet. I’m hope they’re saving theirs up for a truly bad time.Have Liverpool been on the recieving end yet?
No consistency whatsoever
Oi fuck off sweep,giving them 5 pens in 3 games would have been a bit obvious,3 in 3 is already suspect
This. So VAR is not eliminating fuck ups but ruling out goals for armpits being 5mm offside.System put in place to eliminate fuck ups.
Doesn't eliminate fuck ups.
What's the point?
