Spurs love it.

Seriously, it’s use to literally defend the shocking state of officiating in the PL is scandalous.

Hair pulling? No big deal

I can't believe they showed him clearly pulling him over by his hair and still gave a corner..serious foul play for me and should be off..

How dare you say var is crap. How very dare you.

First you debate with them, then you disagree with them, then you insult them before finally spamming the thread with shite.

Describing your own posts succinctly there, Blue Mist.

And there you go. Took a whole 4 days. Forrest match now, linesman no flag as guy was offside but he wasnt 100%, so no flag. Guy was at least a yard more forward than Alvarez was. But VAR picked it up, goal disallowed.

Funny how different it is officiated with us. We need VAR, without it we are much worse off!!

*edit - and another example in the Chelsea/Spuds match. Uncanny

It was exactly the same as Alvarez’s goal. The linesman flagged after the goal was scored.

Once the linesman was right, once he was wrong.

VAR can’t get involved with a hair pull. It’s a yellow card offence.

Therefore it couldn’t change the corner being awarded.

I think VAR could have recommended that he be sent off but not sure they can overturn the corner. Could be wrong though.

Yep and the ref is looking right at it. How he didn't blow for that or the Havertz foul is, for a supposed top ref, incredible really. He robbed chelsea today.
If both of those decisions went against us, i'd be livid.

Definitely can't change the corner, as I don't think the ball was in play.

Three high profile spurs matches "refereed" by Taylor benefiting spurs.
