Genie Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 We’re the kind of club that will get punished by that ridiculous rule, you know it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pintpotvilla Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 What an absolute joke. Football has lost it's way as well as it's fans. It's no fun any more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

picicata Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I hate Spurs as much as the next man but that is just crap. They are screwing the game without lube. And how anti football are Newcastle? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAR is ruining the game. I don't care if refs makes the wrong call every now and again. Goal technology is fine but remove VAR. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Platt Posted September 27, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 27, 2020 But how come the Chelsea lad who handballed it in the build up to Tammy's goal was not handball????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Steve Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 The handball rule is ridiculous. It’s not a foul any other area of the pitch. Carroll looked a little offside too. It’s a repeat of last season where Newcastle won games with a single shot on target. Horrible club to watch. Their luck will run out eventually. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Can the rules be amended mid-season?This is an absolute farce. Advantage play is to now cannon highballs into the box whenever possible and hope it hits an arm. Making luck far too big a determining factor of the result at the moment, so many penalties for bullshit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyM3000 Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 I hope we are working on kicking the ball at a defenders arms and I'm not even joking, it's 100% the play with current rules. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted September 27, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted September 27, 2020 I think VAR has been a lot better this season tbh (so far). This handball rule is an utter joke though. You can't jump without moving your arms, therefor having your arms out when jumping shouldn't be deemed "unnatural" Makes no sense at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 The thing is they probably won't be able to change the law until the end of the season now as they can never admit something doesn't work and alter it, just carry on with the farce week in, week out instead. It's a shame because I think for most other types of decision it has been positive especially with the refs looking at the monitors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 VAR does get some things right that would otherwise get missed, but it takes away too much overall. Scrap it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
