Super Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 32 minutes ago, cidercity1987 said: I don't really understand the overreaction to the Wolves goal not given. It seems a clear case of offside. The Wolves player was deliberately obstructing the goalkeeper, it wasn't even an accident. If you are gonna do that, stay onside. I thought the West Ham goal disallowed in that game for a 'foul' at the back post looked more dubious. Have to agree I was expecting a shocker of a decision after hearing so much.

Also Maguire dragging a Liverpool player all over the place near the corner. Presumably if the player had gone down it might have been a free kick? Is Taylor a favourite at Old Trafford?

MarcusX Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 Another shocker yesterday IMO Chelsea free kick hits Grealish’s outstretched arm in the wall. Ref doesn’t even give a corner, but a goal kick. Now I didn’t see it in real time but I saw the replays and discussion after. On the basis of what is given these days I can’t understand how it isn’t. Every free kick these days the wall are told you can use your hand to cover your face, or your bits, but anything out to the side is in danger. I don’t understand how it’s not a penalty, especially compared to the one we got last week. Also, I know VAR can’t over rule goal kicks but that conversation must have been amusing. Hold on Ref, you’ve given a goal kick but we’re just checking a possible handball. Check complete, it did hit Grealish but no penalty - stick with the goal kick it makes no sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forget about City v Huddersfield look at each situation and that was miles off look at each incident as unique chuck the law at each incident. You can have your arms out to the side of you if its natural in the laws of the game. Is Grealish making himself unnaturally bigger for what he is doing? Grealish is jumping arms move when you jump. Dont think the ref is miles out and for it to be reviewed it should not be marginal. I dont think it was a penalty too marginal not convinced that is a unnatural position.

kit Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 The problem is that two of the decisions were so clear and obvious that the var not giving them you really do have to question the integrity of the decisions not to give them. Personally I think all of the first three should have been penalties by the rules of the game, not seen the fourth as didn't watch the rest of the game so can't comment on that at all. All of them are understandable for the on field referee to not be certain and not give them but being on the receiving end of not being awarded them then its impossible not to question whether something untoward has gone on. The statement from forest is taking things a bit far and is probably doing themselves no favours, but the fact that you are not allowed to question officials publicly despite consistant and quite flagrant incompetence, you might as well all out as the punishment is likely to be the same and at least it highlights it. Its been said before but if these types of decisions were happening in Italy or some south american country you would be fairly sure some brown envelopes had been passed along somewhere. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kodjias Wrist Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 I get their frustration, remember our lack of penalty decisions for two or three seasons where at the worst point we were the lowest side awarded penalties in Europe? for those three or four seasons bottom four or five in league for awarded penalties. Pearson openly vented his frustration publicly and the response from everyone else was “You need to get the ball in the box more…” or it “evens out”. Well it didn’t but I guess we have had a bit more luck this season. If was us I think we would be losing our shit too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDarwall Posted April 21 Share Posted April 21 VAR is total nonsense. Genuinely I'd rather the odd decision go against us than have a game held up whilst we're checking it a nasal hair strayed offside. Lots of decisions are subjective & VAR hasn't remotely got rid of bad decisions. Tech is great for black & white calls; has the ball crossed the goal line, but for everything else it's a waste of time. VAR should be binned, I hope it never gets brought into our level. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
