Brooksy Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Any suspicions of it being corrupt were pretty much confirmed last week vs Man City. I don't know why that decision has surprised me. 1
Gazza M Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 I think 4 wins will be enough looking at how this season is panning out from our last 10. Surely we can do that!!??? 1
Fox92 Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Carlo goes over to to ask why and gets sent off. Our referees are bottlers man.
The_Rorab Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 It's just incompetence. There have been a LOT of ridiculous decisions this season for different teams, this one just happens to have favoured Man U and because it's late and impacts us it feels like it has to be. It just speaks volumes about our implementation of VAR that it feels plausible it could be corruption.

But this season I'm seriously having my doubts. Just too many coincidences. It's a tough one this. But if you look at our decisions in isolation this season, we've had three big decisions go against us (Mane penalty, Rudiger handball and De Bruyne hand ball) and three big decisions go for us (two vs Wolves home and away and one against Burnley). But the big ones that have gone against us are all against big teams so you can defo make that argument.

TheUltimateWinner Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Also, Kavanagh is the worst ref in the prem by far. 3
st albans fox Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Well the lino didn’t give the offside so VAR has overturned another goal hasn't been too many offsides this season that are nuanced like this one I could live with it being called either way - I dont think there is a right or wrong answer but I would have two things to say 1) Siggurdsonn has to pull his legs out of the way of the ball so does that make him active within the offside law?? 2) the on field decision was goal so perhaps the sensible call would be to leave it as the on field call ??

I just think there's too much money at stake in Premier league and champions league football these days to think there's literally zero interference. I don't believe refs are literally paid off but I do believe that VAR has been used this year more often than not to enforce that's a clear bias towards the biggest, most profitable clubs. Why though? Who are the agents that are pulling the strings? Uefa and the fa are two different organisations. Also if there were such a big bias then why aren’t United winning more games? Don’t get me wrong, VAR has its issues and needs rethinking. There have been many bad decisions over the course of the season. But these grand conspiracy theories make people lose credibility in my opinion Edit: Souness and Keane both thought the goal should have been ruled out. Are they being paid off to say that as well?

foxes_rule1978 Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Well 8 points clear still, not much damage done... but we need to start winning, we have some fairly decent fixtures to pick up points.

twister Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Thats four goals in less than two weeks ruled out against united nothing to see here of course............
Leicester_Loyal Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Where are the blokes that were claiming Spurs and United would get 30 out of 33 points? Impossible for them to both achieve that now as they play each other in 2 weeks.
fuchsntf Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Erikson,not moving away...thats the travesty...He took Too long..!! So Close to goal..!! It could of been called either way. Imo..offside!!! but I wont lose any Sleep over it...

Think we will have some big battles with them over the coming years to be midlands top dogs Hope so. It'd be fantastic for both of us to be fighting for top 4 every year. 2 minutes ago, TheUltimateWinner said: Also, Kavanagh is the worst ref in the prem by far. David Coote is by far the worst. Plain incompetent and accelerated into the Prem beyond his ability.

whetstonefox Posted 1 March 2020 Posted 1 March 2020 Sky will be desperate for Chelsea-Wolves , Leicester-Man Utd to have something riding on them last day of the season...plus West Ham-Villa! Of course by then we’ll all have coronavirus so will played in empty stadiums!

It was a Sh1t decision by the ref but it wasn’t reversible by var as it wasn’t a clear and obvious error to give it - Marc actually kicked his foot the only VAR calls that I think we should have had But didn’t were : KDB hand ball makambe handball vardy pen v Watford There may be another hiding somewhere I forgotten
