Molotov Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 I missed this incident regarding Che Adam’s last night as I was likely still in a VAR-rage! Can you remind me? 7 hours ago, TONTROOPER said: McGinn also claiming Adams incident was a stonewaller which as he said..VAR didnt dwell over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Molotov Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Austin McPhee has been involved in many set plays with Scotland. Two questions I have about the disallowed goal: - was McTominay only taking it as Robbo (Plus absence of Teirney) was off injured? - or was this a planned attempt? I’ve noticed Hendry does tend to drag the defensive line as much as possible at most free kicks so he’s obviously under instructions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve noticed Hendry does tend to drag the defensive line as much as possible at most free kicks so he’s obviously under instructions. I think McTominay would've taken it anyway. MacPhee's shown before that he'll put less reliable takers on set-pieces if there's a chance that they'll deliver what he wants. McTominay's taken a few in-swinging corners before and I think the plan was always for a delivery like that. I thought we were a threat from set-pieces all night, and it was good seeing us adding long throws to our repertoire. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 Remember a decade of two back, long before VAR when 'level' got changed from offside to onside. It represented a psychological alteration as much as a physical one. It favoured the attacker and meant a presumption of onside unless very clearly otherwise. VAR has reversed that psychological dimension, and I'm having a hard time believing that that's what it was introduced for. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Molotov Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 I still can’t see how the ref could not award a free kick for the “foul” on McGinn. That set the tone for me. The SFA and the SPFL are corrupt in Scotland with deliberate bias towards the OF. UEFA is corrupt with bias towards the big countries. FIFA is corrupt. Fcuk the SFA Fcuk UEFA Fcuk FIFA Fcuk VAR FTOF for good measure. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Spain had pretty much qualified already then I'd have the fear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
