filbertway Posted 12 April 2021 Share Posted 12 April 2021 That's wolves not scoring again this season! They're pathetic enough with Neto dragging them through games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post foxfan92 Posted 12 April 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 12 April 2021 West Brom have suddenly worked out how to win a game of football and their playing like a different team, scoring for fun. Feel really sorry for whichever poor team plays them next in the league... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yeah he absolutely looks onside but the broadcast angles are often pretty misleading, which I guess is the point of the lines in the first place. I don't disagree at all the the current system is woefully inadequate and the people responsible for operating it aren't up to it, but sacking it off would mean more of these particular situations (i.e. the TV images show the player visibly/clearly onside but he's given off anyway) not fewer. 26 minutes ago, Super_horns said: But they did the lines to the wrong player .. I don't think that's what happened - they didn't draw a line to the attacking player at all because they didn't have the angle to do so. The line they drew is to Vestergaard, not Bartley.

Having had referee mistakes pre and post VAR. I'd rather go back to human error. Purely as I miss being able to celebrate a goal. The joy that it's taking out of the game is much bigger than the "benefit" of the game. For me anyway 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was massively in favour of it being brought in, and I still am in favour of the principle of using technology to help officials get decisions right, but the current implementation is so poor. Like you say, it takes away much more than it adds. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuneatonfox in Manchester Posted 12 April 2021 Share Posted 12 April 2021 Who’s on VAR? That’s laughable, not Dean again is it? The wrong bloody player what an absolute buffoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zear0 Posted 12 April 2021 Share Posted 12 April 2021 Thought they were meant to keep the flag down for tight calls? It would have been a goal then if they went on-field. Not saying its easy, but the officiating is so inconsistent you don't even know where you stand with some decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honest mistake in real time by the assistant not corrected by the VAR? My understanding is lino flagged, VAR went to check and get the lines out but there wasn't an angle from which they could draw a clear line to the attacker in question as he was obscured by a teammate and a defender. Thus they couldn't provide a definite conclusion either way so stuck with lino's decision. He definitely looked onside from the angles we saw on TV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bear Posted 12 April 2021 Share Posted 12 April 2021 The FA needs to sack Mike Riley asap and just go with how VAR is used with the rest of Europe. It's getting beyond a joke now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperMike Posted 12 April 2021 Share Posted 12 April 2021 Ralph told his men to step up three gears or they wont be in the team to play Brendan's Blue Bottling Boys at Wembley! Different side altogether in the second half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely if they couldn’t see any of the goal scorer behind the attacker then he’s onside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
