    I think there are definitely decisions that can be influenced by various factors in a game, including the home crowd.  I'm not complaining btw, everyone can make a mistake, including the ref and that's just part of football, sometimes they go your way, sometimes they don't. I would much prefer it the way it is than have to attend games where VAR came into play, how anyone can think that has improved the game is beyond me.

    Yes, the home crowd can make an impact, or the refs can go home afterwards :)
    What makes you think VAR didn't improve the game? I know of many instances where the ref has changed his mind after watching VAR.

    I think you raise a valid / interesting question.

    Can the ball be classed as inside the area (some part of the ball overhanging the outside of the painted line), BUT the keeper’s hands be completely outside.

    This site:

    https://www.sportsrec.com/8095705/what-happens-if-a-goalie-is-outside-the-box-with-the-ball-in-his-hands-during-a-soccer-game

    says that if Dieng touches the ball with his hands outside of the area, but the ball is a smidgeon overhanging the line, then it’s NOT deemed handball, ie it is the ball that determines inside, not the keepers hands.

     

    Interesting article, thank you. That is, the goalkeeper can even stand completely outside the penalty box and touch the ball, which is inside the penalty box. I used to think that the goalkeeper had to stand within the penalty area, but now it turns out that he doesn't.

    I still think it was a definite 'home' penalty , the Exeter players reaction, which is on camera and his subsequent piss taking(which isn't) swung it for me a bit maybe.

    It was quite interesting being in the home end regarding refereeing decisions. I like to think I'm pretty fair minded while I watch a game, but for most decisions I seemed to be out of sync with those around me. Maybe we all have an inbuilt bias whether we think we have or not. All of this put me in the mood for gambling. I don't do a lot of gambling, I play some slots, but sometimes I am drawn to slot machines. I use demo versions, I look at this site -  https://betpokies.co.nz/google-pay-casinos - these guys make good reviews!

    I am sure that penalties on the field and penalties on TV are evaluated differently. Referees have their own view, don't they? But I don't rule out a home decision, although there is no evidence of that.

    Not really delving back in too far but quite happy to say over my situation now. Update of small interest.

    Someone I know came across her on said site and curiously she has neglected to update the fact that- remember two people same number so it could also be a spoof of someone and cannot rule it out- she's neglected to update a minor thing. Friend asked me if that I was the person I was moaning about and I said '*Yes! Steer clear...or go there if you dare!" Ultimately I advised the whole steer clear thing.

    The minor detail? That she's married! Simply still says Open Relationship but no change to bio a couple of pics aside...could be leading a double life of some kind methinks, certainly don't intend to find out but a lot still doesn't stack up. Bullet dodged for sure.

    *Whether he does steer clear is for him and him alone to work out. I can advise but his call ultimately.

    It seems she didn't forget to update a minor detail, but intentionally didn't update it. I'm not sure, but that's what it looks like. It's that type of woman :)
