I'd be surprised if that gets counted tbh, would assume it's just natural stoppage in game and dosen't get added on like injuries.
It was a shit decision but it was not evidence of a conspiracy..
When people cry conspiracy then yes it’s RAWKish. We can’t criticise them for their wacko theories one moment and cry conspiracy the next. The basic truth is the standard of refereeing is dog shit, that is all.
We were crap but with a fair ref we would have won it. At the end of the day, the goal which gave them the point was a foul.
A fantastic high-calibre referee - Jon Moss
No doubt its wasn't given.
Not really... You'd have 10 penalties every weekend otherwise (with Maguire giving away one!)
Anyone coming into a ref thread and starts moaning about the team performance needs an even harder slap
You’re just wrong with this opinion, and this line of reasoning (you’d be giving 10 blah blah blahs a week) is a bit daft. The penalty is given on the field. That means it has to be an obvious error to overturn. The only way it’s an obvious error, ie not subjectively, but objectively not a penalty is if there is no contact. We’ve seen this consistently all season. There has not been a single penalty overturned where there has been any contact at all, if it was given on the field. And yet here we are.
Not really. The defender was on the wrong side and made no attempt to head/attack the ball.
The truth hurts Petal
Incorrect, if the ref thinks he saw something (i.e. The defender trip Maguire or pull him down with force) that didn't actually happen then it is an error.
Luiz stopped the player from shooting by being too close. This was just a coming together, if Maguire actually had the ball at his feet it would be different, but as it is they're both running back.
Not really, here, the defender put his hand on Maguire's shoulder stopping him from maybe reaching the ball. If you're not flagging it for offside, it has to be given as a pen.
The ref clearly points to Ajayi, says his name and says he pulled him back. On the replay it shows him pull him back. He should never have been sent to the screen. It’s not an error on field, as he saw correctly what happened. Deciding on the degree of contact is subjective, and constitutes a re-refereeing of the incident. Which the PGMOL have categorically stated should not happen.
Really annoying to see the most prestigious league in the world with the highest amount of talent and money to see referees of such low standard. FA full of shite is the problem to start with, some of the refs are just there because their friends with them. BTW Pawson I don't think is the worst of them, He's kinda week, which could help us more than not, with us being on top usually however he made up for his mistake with VAR, otherwise okay game.
Oh come on, he's hardly pulled him back. The hand has gone on the shoulder for a split second. It's barely impeded Maguire. Touching players in the box isn't a foul.
But he saw it and motioned what he saw which is exactly what VAR showed him.
Because he probably thought there was a tug or pull strong enough to bring Maguire down. Clearly there wasn't. He touched his shoulder for a second, that's it.
I’m just going to stop this back and forth because I know you’re a well respected poster on here and there’s nothing to gain from me arguing the toss with you. I think you’re wrong, objectively speaking based on the referee on fields assertion and the rules laid out on how and when VAR can intervene. I also think you’re wrong about the foul on Lindelof but you’re like a bull in a China shop today arguing about that one too. So, you crack on, good day to you.
Don't worry mate you're totally wrong... I have zero respect on here!
But that's not what VAR is for. How strong the contact is is a subjective thing. If you're making a significant touch with the attacker, and a pen is given against you, you can't really complain about that.
Aye. That's where the stupidity and inconsistancy in VAR is... Its not managed the same from game to game.
So true.
