Wolves just gone 1 up, Blades showing some fight though.
Well two of their players just had a go at each other anyway.
Ref was waiting to see if any red cards should be given.

Sheff Utd look way stronger than us right now. They are improving under Wilder unlike us under VK Very disappointing from Wolves so far

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 3:24 pm**

Wolves 1-0. Got away with one very poor second half.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 3:25 pm**

The Chelsea/Liverpool final is still goalless, but some cracking action. Liverpool keeper just pulled off a great save.

How many did they win by?
How many games have the won since improving?
Are they still below us?

Some very raw nerves on here lol

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 3:35 pm**

A daft comment on Sheffield United's "improvement" too.
Lol.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 3:38 pm**

The referee in the Cup final is shocking. Caicedo on 4 fouls and no sight of a yellow card.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 3:51 pm**

Can’t see Wilder lasting at Sheffield United. Strange appointment really.

Whether their performances are any better than ours is a mute point because they are absolutely in the same position we are. They're going down without a shadow of a doubt and just like us they've a manager who has proven he knows the championship and the way out of it. Daft to pot him now when the fat lady is already singing on the current season and simply be pragmatic and start planning for next.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:23 pm**

Boro and Watford fans may have a different answer if you ask them about Wilder’s ability to get out of the Championship

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:24 pm**

1-0 Liverpool

VAR check. Disallowed.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:26 pm**

Goal gone to review. Disallowed.
Hoping Liverpool win as Chelsea have been leaving afters on them all afternoon.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:27 pm**

That’s a joke of a decision tbh

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:27 pm**

Wilder since returning will have a better record than VK in a like for like comparison. The only reason they are on the same points tally as us is because heckingbottom stayed too long & wilder didn't go there sooner

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:28 pm**

VAR is wrecking the game

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:28 pm**

Yet another VAR Farce, NO Chelsea player getting anywhere near that cross, nobody impeded yet these sh*t Ref's on VAR need to interfere.

Absolute garbage PGMOL!

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:28 pm**

I won't miss the smirk on Klopp's face which appears every time a decision goes against Liverpool.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:28 pm**

VAR joking.

Debatable interference.

Not a clear and obvious error.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:29 pm**

Any excuse to disallow a goal , unless it’s Burnley

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:30 pm**

killing the game, I genuinely hate it

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:31 pm**

Thought it was a diabolical decision originally. But having seen it back from another angle, Endo’s only intention is to block his opponent, which is cheating, so to do so whilst stood in an offside position I think is expecting the rules to bend a little too much in your favour.

Can only imagine the reaction on here from the likes of you if a new manager came in and had two 5-0 defeats at home in the space of three matches.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:32 pm**

That is just a ridiculous offside. If the rules say that’s offside quite simply the rule isn’t fit for purpose.

Same with Assignon yesterday, the offside player has had no impact on the outcome so should NOT be ruled offside.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:32 pm**

Despite the lack of goals, it’s a cracking game

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:32 pm**

Shambolic refereeing performance in the final. May as well just give the trophy to Chelsea

So basically if a defender wants to go somewhere you better step aside

Watford are the last club to ask on the ability of a manager.

They potted Rob Edwards believing he wouldn’t be able to get them out of the Championship.

As you’d expect - new guy in and we’ve been diabolical. And yet they’re still below us. What’s the difference in results, a point or something? Hardly suggests long term success but who knows.

This is what gets me, if an attacking player is running towards a defender and that defender doesn’t move and the attacker runs into him 9/10 a fouls is given

What’s the defender supposed to do? Evaporate?

No, basically if you’re going to obviously block a defender from being able to challenge for the ball then make sure you’re stood in an onside position and the officials will more than likely let you get away with it.

The law states a player is interfering if they are ‘making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball’ - which I think is the case here - unless it can be proven with absolute certainty that the defender wouldn’t have been able to play the ball. Assignon was very clearly offside yesterday by the same principle.

It's not just results the performances generally speaking have been better so you are looking at 2 positives compared to our 2 negatives.

Funny how the national anthem booing lot had their bubble burst by VAR, but let’s be fair it was a shocker.

These days if there is a way to disallow a goal VAR will find it, makes a mockery of celebrating and enjoying the moment. Killing the game and takes away far more joy than the justice it can benefit.

p.s. blocking is allowed of course, we are all entitled to our space on the pitch, but offside blocking is ‘technically’ not nor is a deliberate movement to foul (Adebayo on Trafford). So the Liverpool goal was technically offside but by God it kills the game if the lino or ref doesn’t give it originally.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:45 pm**

Every time I watch Caisedo I can't believe that somebody would pay anywhere near £100 million for him.

Blocking is not allowed, or at least shouldn’t be.

Kellerher is too good a keeper to be a number 2

Deserves to be number 1 somewhere

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:52 pm**

Klopp’s kids

How many has he got?

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:53 pm**

With different officials the score would be different and different players would be on the pitch - it really shouldn’t be that way

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:55 pm**

Bloody hell!
How did Chelsea not score then !!!

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:56 pm**

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:57 pm**

Mad scramble.

Posted: **Sun Feb 25, 2024 4:57 pm**

Not much quality but end to end action. A v enjoyable 0-0. Wonder if the entertainment will extend into extra time.

it's not the fact of this decision, it's that next week the same officials will make a different decision for a similar situation.

Yeah definitely. VAR is bonk and has to some extent ruined the game. I’m just not going to agree that a player cheating whilst in an offside position shouldn’t be penalised for it.
