sne Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 If the Newcastle player wanted a penalty he should have played in a sky blue shirt, rookie mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Your bang on here guys, cause you know for certain, an would probably bet a considerable amount of money on it. If most of these tackles like the Newcastle one today was a Salah, a Foden for example, it would be a penalty all day long. Refs have also gotta be much better at spotting simulation. I mean is there no training for it. Salah with us, Kane. Anyone can get a penalty. Run in front of the player with the ball in the penalty area, lean forward and fall over, in Salah's case, add a couple of roll overs for good effect, refs are complete mugs for it.

delboy54 Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 The Ref has got to ask himself if that tackle on the Newcastle player was outside the box would it be a foul?......of course it would! So why not a penalty then if its inside the box? I have said this before something is not right with VAR....corruption? Wrong colour shirt?, top 6 club?.....if this was any other "industry" there would be a police investigation.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M_Afro Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 The VAR official should be made to explain why he didn’t get the ref to check the Kane tackle but did the Robertson one. Both red cards but Kane’s was the worse of the two in my opinion. I also hate the way that all ref’s toe the party line and stick up for each other. It’s nonsense. They are totally untouchable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M_Afro Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 The ref’s should also be miked and be forced to talk through their decision making process like they do in rugby. It would bring greater accountability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Vive_La_Villa Posted December 19, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted December 19, 2021 Whilst I agree the ref was poor today I find it a joke how Liverpool fans are going on about it as if it’s the biggest Injustice there’s ever been in football.

Stevo985 Posted December 19, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted December 19, 2021 Disgusting decisions this weekend. Xhaka and Kane should both have been sent off. The Newcastle penalty claim is absolutely laughable (laughable that they didn't get it), and there were two penalties in the liverpool/spurs game that should have been given (although I'm sure if they'd been against us some people on here would have said they were dives ) Really shocking stuff this weekend Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted December 19, 2021 Author VT Supporter Share Posted December 19, 2021 The problem is that refs are avoiding making decisions because they have VAR to fall back on, and VAR are reluctant to correct referees. So we're stuck in a cycle of inactivity. It's a joke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt Salah knows how to simulate a penalty, 75% are of his doing. Refs need to be trained to spot this, obviously they are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OutByEaster? Posted December 19, 2021 Moderator Share Posted December 19, 2021 Is it me or are the wrong decisions getting clearer, more dramatic, bigger? It's almost like the refs get together for a Curry on Tuesday night and piss themselves laughing "Have a look at this one, I didn't give it and Mike in the booth didn't even look" as they all laugh themselves sick and someone reckons they can top that next weekend and they order extra poppadoms and laugh at John Moss for having had enough already. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
