useless Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Burnley very poor in the first half, didn't look like a team that's just taken eight points from Villa, Everton, Wolves and Arsenal. Leeds weren't particularly good themselves but didn't really have to be. Although Barnes' goal should have stood, or they at least should have had a penalty, wonder now if the referee will try and even it up in the second half if there's a contentious decision to be made.

I'd like to see keepers punished more. Pope gets the ball and gives a pen. Keepers don't need more protection, just need more consistency from refs.

VillaAlex Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Leeds have been dreadful but Burnley have no potency in attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Leeds absolutely dead on their feet and anyone who wants their team to play football on this shit heap of a pitch needs their head checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Silvers Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Apparently Hernandez is in a different league to Jack Grealish...... couldn't agree more. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 All I'll be thinking is Leeds grind out a 1-0 here is what a fraud Lambert was for inflicting 15-0 on us over xmas 2012. And we continued collapsing over the next two months with the Bradford cup games (shudders). One of the most horrible periods supporting this club. List is surprisingly long of clubs who can get a 1-0 win after being thrashed the week before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 One of the worst refereeing performances I have ever seen this. I'm not one to side with Brunley and Dyche but I'd be **** raging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted December 27, 2020 Moderator Share Posted December 27, 2020 The referee looks like he's refereeing this game based on what he's read about these two teams in the papers. Burnley are physical and dirty and Leeds are great right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted December 27, 2020 Moderator Share Posted December 27, 2020 Dire ref, dire. As for the brilliant magnificent Leeds. Er... where are they? Big three points for them but I think they are starting to look a bit leggy, I'd be very curious to see the stats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 People say they want the PL refs demoted because they're shite, well, to do that, you have to promote others. This is what you get It's this ref's 4th ever PL game. It's going to get increasingly difficult too, as refs don't get any proper VAR experience until working in the PL, and have to work against their instincts of flagging/blowing the whistle that they've honed over years in lower leagues.
