VAR thread 2022/23

[Blue Budgie]

Twatwell should surely be suspended for the rest of the season.

He should be suspended alright-from the fucking gallows. I never thought I'd see a more bent referee than Peter Walton was but this **** makes him look like prime Collina.

Specsavers’ response to Sky Sport tweet…

And guess who the referee was again...

Stuart fucking Atwell - the most corrupt in the game and fucked us over at United.

If you mix corruption and ineptitude, you get this twat.

I'm pretty sure he also reffed our draw at home to Everton, another disgrace from the official.

There is a very bad smell around Atwell. I know what I witnessed at Old Trafford and it wasn't just incompetence. There was only one possible decision for the Rashford/Fernandez incident but VAR was not even used. The same happened yesterday with Brighton and the penalty shout. It is not possible to make that mistake if VAR is used. It wasn't a mistake. This is all happening in plain sight.

I think Brighton would happily swap the apology for the 3 points they should have got.

Officials fuck up - Webb apologises. That's it.

Attwell will probably get our game against Leicester...

City should refuse to accept Atwell as an official for any of our matches.

But we have the fairest and most honest football competition in the world that is the premier league,there has been corruption in Italy ( numerous times ) Spain,Germany and France yet the by far the richest and most watched league in the world is untainted by corruption dead on,where there is money and vast sums of it there is corruption as sure as night follows day.The problem we have is too many are gaining from turning a blind eye to it all,and the whole from a young age being institutionalised towards are love of football it’s part of our lives now,so even though there is corruption we still will watch our team and the game itself ..

Corruption in plain sight at our game yesterday when they decided to look at offside for Grealish in the build up to the goal. He was that far onside that they had to remove the lines pronto for fear of embarrassment.

You can't say they didn't try :(

 

[deano ou812]

They should rebrand the premier league to something like WWE Premier league ..

You can't say they didn't try :(

I said to the fellow blues I was watching with they would look at it and try and find a way to disallow it, and they did try, they look longer than some of Atwell’s decisions yesterday. Just wait for the Brighton game, they’ll find a way to pacify them at our expense.

The VAR teams look as though they are placing the emphasis on Clear rather than Obvious. It's as though their thought process is "it understandable how that was difficult for the ref to see". If yes, forget and move on. When it should be was it a foul?
