Re: CORRUPT PL
Absolute disgrace,The Var decision against Sander was ridiculous,as Don Goodman said,it would never ever have been given had it been a defender doing same thing in the area.

Re: CORRUPT PL
I never said it was, in fact I have done the opposite all the way along (as far as I remember!) The main thing for me is there is no way at all they can tell where on the arm it hits him, there is no way they can tell if it's deliberate and the thing that pisses me off more than anything is they don't give a penalty and send McKenna off because without him trying to hug Berge the ball wouldn't hit Berge. VAR is shite and Knob Jones is exactly that

Re: CORRUPT PL
I thought the decision first time round when i saw it that the goal would stand but soon as ref went to monitor i knew it would get chalked of and that is what we are up against if it was a top 6 team goal would have stood, for me VAR is still not working properly and i have never been in favour of it .

Re: CORRUPT PL
Strange that you've mentioned the ball going clearly out of play at Old Trafford against Brighton as a means of comparison - Why not Onana cleaning out a Wolves player in the penalty area in the most blatant penalty decision you could ever see the other week? You're kidding yourself if you think that decision last night isn't given as a goal if we were Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal, Spurs, Chelsea etc. Subjectivity reigns supreme in this league and is heavily weighted against the have-nots. It was ever thus.

Re: CORRUPT PL
The premier league only has the money it does due to tv money abroad and merchandise fans from across the world buy, and for that money to still come in, it needs the big teams to do well or the product wouldn’t be worth as much money. Every decision made from amount of subs, squad lists, var decisions to tv games is all for the big clubs

It isn't corrupt, that's just silly but one day a story will break about a Referee taking payments from an unofficial source or betting on the outcome of matches.

Re: CORRUPT PL
It is crazy to think it's corrupt. Sorry to those who do, but it really is.
There is bias of course, we all know that. But if you genuinely think the referees are all collaborating so that Burnley can only get a point at Forest, and only if the should-be winning goal has a marginal claim for handball against it, it's time to give your head a wobble.

Re: CORRUPT PL
Unfortunately the introduction of VAR inevitably leads to people questioning the integrity of the officials.
Before VAR, the ref and his assistants got one look at an incident in real time. Sometimes they got it right, sometimes they didn't. But when they did get it wrong you could give them the benefit of the doubt.
It's not as easy now, so when they're still making a hash of things and getting decisions wrong despite having multiple angels and views, people will naturally think there's something more than just incompetence at play, rightly or wrongly.
Personally I think it needs to be completely stripped back to basics. A referee, two assistants and goal line technology (which is indisputable and not down to someone's interpretation).

Re: CORRUPT PL
To say it’s corrupt is just ridiculous. Bias? In my opinion, yes. Probably borne out of weak refs feeling the pressure at ‘big clubs’ from aggressively complaining high-profile players and managers.

Re: CORRUPT PL
I agree there’s an inherent bias in decision making towards the big clubs as well as the home team.
This isn’t corruption, we’ve been on the right side of these sort of decisions plenty of times.
I remember Vokes blatantly handballing in the buildup to the winning goal against the then current PL champions at the Turf, which stood.

Re: CORRUPT PL
VAR causes confusion and argument every week. At least when we (Burnley) were in the Championship we didn't have that problem.
In this particular situation, because the 'Handball' was not by the scorer, it has to be deliberate to rule out the goal. Therefore, why did the refereee not book Sander Berge for 'Deliberate hand ball'? They mess about interpreting the laws using VAR but ignore the basic rules all the time.
Time to do away with VAR and stick to the basics. VAR has ruined the ability to instantly celebrate when a goal has been scored. Now, we have all to wait five minutes or sometimes more, to find out if a goal will stand while every move in the build up is disected. Ridiculous.

He isn't a fan of anyone. He's a referee. You might as well tell a player who used to be an Everton fan that he shouldn't play in games involving anyone in the bottom half in case he's biased.

I find myself not really celebrating now, previously I'd look across at the linesman for a split second then know I could enjoy the celebrations.
Now you just feel a clown when it goes to VAR and you have to sit back down with your tail between your legs, its certainly taken that enjoyment away which is why we all go.

As I noted on another thread, in the grand scheme of things, that favouritism/bias is to the financial benefit of ALL teams in the EPL, indeed the sport as a whole. It's not something new (VAR just provides another layer/oppotunity to 'tweak' results) and nobody is going to rock the boat enough to upset it, so that isn't going to change; as supporters you learn to live with it or instead watch professional wrestling/formula 1 car racing instead.Gordaleman wrote: ↑Tue Sep 19, 2023 12:03 pm...the laws regarding handball and they are as clear as mud.

VAR has ruined the spontaneous celebration that we all used to have. Now we have to bite our fingernails for five minutes to see if VAR messes things up. Which it often does.

Re: CORRUPT PL
Some dodgy decisions are debatable, some are clearly wrong.
Refs need to be accountable, we have seen some refs sent down for a few weeks for errors. It isn't enough, in any walk of life there are consequences for bad workmanship, retraining or ultimately the sack. I'm not suggesting these idiots get sacked, but they need punishing more than 'who's a naughty boy'.
With the aid of VAR there is no excuse for making these errors. Every pundit said it was wrong, Forest players didn't appeal, even their fans say it was wrong. It situations like this they shouldn't officiate above league 1 for a couple of seasons.
The PGMOL or whatever its called has to decide if it supports integrity or referees, it can't do both.

Re: CORRUPT PL
The VAR man saw it as his job to disallow the goal if he possibly could, and by slowing it down to frame-by-frame action he found a way to do it. And by the sound of what he was telling the proper ref, the VAR ref seemed to believe he was the more important person and had the right to give orders to the actual referee. No cheating, just a matter of going into it with a wrong mindset.Colburn_Claret wrote: ↑Tue Sep 19, 2023 3:13 pmIt would help them call decisions honestly.

The rugby union VAR seems to work the same way. There is a lot to be learned from the way rugby league do it.
