The disallowed goal for West Ham is as absurd as ours btw. It’s ridiculous when you watch football with people in pubs who come up with strange interpretations of decisions, but these are actually paid professionals.

 

That's fucking ridiculous!

[Howay 12496]

 

It is becoming a joke like. 

[Gemmill 46144]

I've only seen the Willock thing live and still don't know what went on. Was he pulled up for jumping for a header and coming into contact with the keeper? 

 

Looked like bullshit but I was at the opposite end of the ground. 

[Howay 12496]

 

Even Palace fans think the decision was shite.

The reverse angle of this is vastly more clear that Willock is shoved also, and that does not appear to have been presented to the referee for review.

lol look at this nerd who actually knows when we’re playing more than 2 days in advance 

[Renton 22025]

Always said VAR would just make things worse. It's been a transparent disaster, I prefer my disasters opaque.

Yes, fair play to them. Their manager did certainly learn from Wenger though.

 

 

[Gemmill 46144]

 

First match in ages, I wore my special shirt, and still no goals. Livid. 

[Howay 12496]

Hope on the conspiracy theory train now, good lad. 

[aimaad22 4236]

Anderson a bright spark on a very frustrating day. We created enough to win, it's the quality in the final third that let's us down again. 

 

I think Isak has shown enough to be able to say he's going to be a force to be reckoned with. Bad miss but young lad still settling in. 

 

Don't know what to say about the officials. I honestly went into shock for a minute, that has to be some kind of joke. This level of incompetence needs to be called out.

I agree with this, the techie VT neeks at Stockley Park fucked up big time. THIS is the angle they should have presented Salisbury with:

It was only ever a media talking point….”the refs need help, we have the technology!” People went along with it. I distinctly remember saying in here that it wasn’t required, that it was a media fad and only ever really benefitted folk watching tv. As you say it been predictably proven to be utter bollocks. Even when they’ve tried to change the rules of the game to suit it it’s been shown to be inanely fuckin irrelevant because it’s still humans making decisions. 

[Howay 12496]

Even this bitter wanksplat agrees.

Goal-line technology was a good system to introduce. I think they could expand it to cover when the ball has exited the pitch as well. And I'm fairly certain they could develop technology to correctly and accurately judge offside calls - cameras tracking the last defender. But the rest should be open to human interpretation only. 

That said if it wasn't there we'd have lost to both Man City & Wolves and had Trippier missing for 3 matches. 

[Craig 6700]

Fuck off!!

[aimaad22 4236]

Whats his basis for saying that? He would have only gone up in people estimation if he'd said the truth, they'd still have their bloody point.

 

And whats the rationale for not awarding a penalty for the push if they have chalked off the goal, why not review that. Just shocking decision making all around. Still absolutely seething I am

It's a fair point actually. If the ball hadn't ended up in the net, that'd surely have had to have been a penalty.

In contrast I understand Tuchel has said Chelsea were extremely fortunate to have the VAR decision go their way. I think that's as close as you'll get to him saying it was the wrong call.

I think this kid was actually from Saudi btw. The absolute highlight was when the second half kicked off he unwrapped a Mars bar and offered first bite to everyone sat around him. Left and right and the rows in front and behind.

 

Sadly nobody took him up on it.

Viera needs to stick to mortgages. 

[strawb 4413]

If Isak scores that early chance we win that comfortably 

[Alex 35653]

I think we’re stuck with VAR now but I think I agree it would be better if it was just the goal line technology. I thought the teething problems would be sorted out but, if anything, it’s getting worse. The marginal offsides bug the fuck out of me. If it’s a howler by the assistant referee that’s one thing. But when they need to keep looking and looking at it then the principle should be you stick with the on-field decision. It’s often almost impossible to say if the pass has been played or is just about to be played at the moment the player is just on or offside. I also hate the way you can barely celebrate a goal now knowing there’s a good chance you’ll have to wait about 2 minutes to have it confirmed

[wykikitoon 20889]

The offside rule needs to be looked at.  Because if someones pube is offside, that's just mental.
