From pretty much every angle it's conclusive that Digne goes straight through March as March kicks the ball. One of those where you'd love to hear what the comms was from Gillett to the ref. Especially considering there's a real insistence on sending refs to the monitor to have a look themselves.

Although clearly a pen, I’m still bitter at Brighton for the VAR robbery at their place last season, so sod em

Ah man I really hope Villa lose

 

A draw would be ideal...keeps Villa below us and keeps Brighton within touching distance

I dislike the pens and free kicks given when someone just gets a foot in as a player is passing or clearing the ball. there is never any intent to play the man. I get why they’re given - I just don’t like it.   That one could well have been passed on because the ball ricochets back against digne in the challenge - hence it could be judged to be more of a coming together. Surprised it wasn’t reviewed and given though.

I think that's way more a coming together though. It's not like they're both running towards the ball and collide. March is first to the ball which is one factor. Then the overriding factor of that is Digne making a clear play for the ball, totally missing, but also kicking March in the process. 

 

Anywhere else on the pitch and it's a foul. 

 

On-pitch referee missing it is tolerable because his view may have been blocked. But for a VAR official to see that and deem it to not be a foul is incredible.

I get the sentiment but I'd back them and commend them for being brave enough to come out almost knowing its guaranteed they'll get some abuse. 

 

You're right. It isn't abnormal. But the bravery should be respected for being who they are. 

 

Hopefully one day it does become the norm and newspapers don't feel the need to sensationalise it. 

Danny Mings & Tyrone Ings.

Maybe an unpopular opinion but I think lately all the other results are decent for us. Most top half teams are dropping points, yes it makes it tight everywhere else but with our form and confidence building we might do better than most of our fans expect. 

A competive league from top to bottom is better for a team like ours.

Brighton will fall off slowly as the season progresses. I honestly feel like 8th to 17th is going to see so much movement over the course of the season. The main goal for now avoid relegation 45 points needed overall to be 100% sure.

Time wasting in football is a disgrace. Needs to be stopped. World cup will be full of it no doubt. 

Put a time limit on free-kicks, goal kicks, throw-ins etc. There are balls around the pitch, get on with the game.

Sadly that Dyche-style time wasting still exists. Last 20 were a grim watch.

Dyche was on TalkSport last Thursday or Friday. Came across really well. Talks sense. 
l agree with your point though !

At the very least clocks should be stopped for injuries and substitutions. Will help immediately, don't want clock stopping all the time.
