transfer reader Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 The Ankaragügü manager has previously served a short amount of time for racism during his days as a player. Without wanting to put the blame of his chairman's actions on him, its less surprising for unsavoury behaviour to come from a club that employs an unsavoury character than one that doesn't.

I find it kinda weird about ref hysteria. Their shit and incompetent and bent. Hatred. When you reduce another soul to being shit its soo much easier to give it a good wack like a dumb beast.

Open End Numb Legs Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 The coward in the brown jacket - what was going through his tiny mind, kicking the ref whilst he was lying on the ground? Pretty shocking stuff. The only good thing that could come out of this is a new approach at all levels to respecting the officials. I don't expect agreement with decisions and mistakes will still be made, but it is about how teams react. Teams like Man City must learn how they are part of setting the right example that millions see on TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CliftonCliff Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Just catching up with this news from last night. It evokes a conflicting response. Clearly absolutely appalling on one level, but there’s also a certain sense of inevitability about it, too, like it was bound to happen sometime, somewhere, eventually. A line has been crossed. Have to give credit to the Turkish football authorities, in as much as the immediate suspension of all fixtures seems to me to be proportionate. It leaves nobody in any doubt about the enormity of what’s taken place. I would have thought, for starters, a total life ban for the individual who threw the punch from any involvement of any kind in the game. The same would have to apply to anyone else who physically attacked the referee. What thereafter? Sanctions against the club? Hard to see how that can be avoided, although it’s always tough when innocent parties suffer for the inexplicable actions of one complete idiot. Maybe something constructive can emerge from it when the shock subsides, especially if the implications are debated beyond the confines of Turkey’s domestic game. A wide ranging review of refereeing standards, player behaviour towards referees, referee welfare, and how the promote a culture of greater respect and discipline would be timely. This could and arguably should be a big moment in the evolution of the sport in Europe, if it shines a light on issues that need addressing across all levels of the game.

Just to say that it wasn't just one individual. The ref was attacked by several after the initial assault whilst on the ground - he was kicked several times. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put the players under a % of the scrutiny refs are with proper bans and things will change. I don't think a ref being asked to explain their decisions is unreasonable, particularly when the frequency of baffling decisions is ever increasing. There was a Swedish ref who publicly posted some of theirs a few years ago, and even after a game where he got a big penalty decision wrong he got a mostly positive response, probably in part because he acknowledged he made a mistake, but he also explained his thought process for the decision made. Wanting to understand where a referee was coming from when they make a decision that is an obvious error to everyone else is so far removed from what happened in Turkey yesterday that they should not even be mentioned in the same breath. This is another way VAR is failing. Currently the audio of the process is being allowed to the media crew, but the fans are kept in the dark. Fans should be able to hear the reasoning (if we stick with the steaming pile of shite known as VAR). Then when a clear red isn't given (Romero on Sunday, possibly Guimaraes too) the fans at least know why, and this would pro actively go towards stopping a large amount of abuse that might follow.

Mallorcan Red Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 Time to get rid of actual human refs. It's half done anyway, now we have VAR. This is a cut/paste from something I read that I wasn't supposed to (admittedly from someone discussing US MLS not UEFA) Aerial Surveillance: Drones with high-resolution cameras and sophisticated AI algorithms would be deployed to provide a bird's-eye view of the entire field. These drones would be capable of tracking the ball's trajectory, detecting offside positions, and identifying any incidents that could affect the game's outcome. AI-powered image analysis would enable the drones to detect and interpret complex game situations, such as fouls, handballs, and goal-line decisions. This would eliminate the need for human officials to make split-second judgments in challenging situations. Boundary Monitoring: Embedded sensors around the perimeter of the field would detect when the ball crosses the goal line or goes out of play. This would eliminate the need for linesmen to flag offside or out of bounds plays, ensuring more accurate decisions. These sensors would also be used to track the movement of players, enabling the AI system to identify offside positions and ensure that all players are following the rules. Injury Detection and Assistance: Contact sensors embedded in players' shin guards or other body parts would detect when a player suffers a significant impact or collision. This would trigger an alert to the AI system, which would immediately halt the game and signal for medical assistance. The AI system could also communicate with the players through wearable devices, providing real-time feedback on their health and fitness status. This could help to prevent injuries and ensure player safety. Data Integration and Decision-Making: A central AI system would receive data from all the sensors and cameras on the field, as well as from other sources such as referee communication devices and player tracking systems. This system would analyse the data in real-time, using AI algorithms to identify and classify game events, detect fouls or rule violations, and determine the appropriate outcome for each situation. The AI system would communicate its decisions to the on-field players through electronic displays located around the stadium, eliminating the need for human officials to intervene. Then after this I guess its just onto robots playing the game itself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Markthehorn Posted December 12, 2023 Report Share Posted December 12, 2023 One thing for refs to be criticised and maybe abused in the heat of the moment but there is no excuse for this sort of violent physical reaction. You wouldn’t get away with in most places so these thugs shouldn’t now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my perception, rather than data driven. If you have data that contradicts it, then by all means share it and I'll accept that it isn't. But off the top of my head there was the 'offside' Liverpool goal that wasn't offside, a penalty decision and 2 red cards not given in the Fulham vs Wolves game, Romero and potentially Guimaraes on Sunday in the Spurs vs Newcastle game, penalty that was given in the Wolves vs Newcastle game, the non-awarding of a penalty against Onana in the Man Utd vs Wolves game. IIRC the penalty Luton got against Brighton was more than a bit dubious too. Even the Tottenham vs Chelsea game, Spurs had 2 players who should have been sent off with reds not given (although at least 1 of those was later sent off) As I said, that's just the ones this season off the top of my head.

The scrutiny is put on the refs. Putting refs out there to explain mistakes puts on more scrutiny on the ref. seriously maybe they should do it naked so they can be belittled some more mocked more by many who despise authority. Thats the problem. We have dont have respect its no respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
