Absolute nonsense. He was entitled to go for the ball and his foot slipped over the top of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 And this is why I'd rather have folk f**k about with stupid lines for a couple of minutes to at least get the right decision, instead of trying to rush it. What a monumental f**k up. Ideally there wouldn't be any VAR at all but it's here to stay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't get how anyone can argue it wasn't a red card. Its about as stonewall a red card you'll see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 The problem with the Jones red card isn't so much the red card, it's the process. Had the referee given a red straight away, I don't think too many people would have had any complaints. The fact that the referee - barely 5 yards away - deemed it worth a yellow was fine IMO, albeit one that in the past would have been mentioned on MotD. When VAR was introduced they were keen to say that they weren't going to re-referee games, they'd look for factual errors, clear and obvious errors and mistaken identity. The fact that the first thing the referee saw when he went to the monitor was a still image - which always make any challenge look worse than it may have actually been - was always going to make him think he'd made a massive error of judgement but I don't think it was a huge mistake at all. Like I said earlier, if he'd given the red straight off the bat I think that would have been fine and VAR wouldn't have had enough evidence to overturn it, but at the same time having given the yellow initially I don't think there was enough to overrule his original decision. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buchan30 Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 9 hours ago, Salvo Montalbano said: See for that first one, the ref gave a yellow - was it an obvious error? Seeing it in real time, it looks like a yellow. Seeing it slowed down shows that the reason the contact was made was that Jones got the ball, his foot then rolled over it and into the boys leg. But it looks like the referee was shown the still image on the monitor first, before any video footage. That makes it look a million times worse and makes the referee think he's made a major error. Also, why weren't the Villa 2nd and 3rd goals ruled out? Looked offside for the second then how that wasn't a foul on March for the third I just don't understand. The Villa player headed his legs away from him! I think with the rule being “he went over the top of the ball” it had to be checked. Yeah, the villa ones were strange, a few of them you expected some sort of review at least. Var would work if you have the right folk in charge of it and not people who are incompetent.

ClydeTon Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 10 hours ago, No_Problemo said: I’ve always wondered why Liverpool are so disliked on here - values wise they surely measure up (royal, Tory hating etc) more similarly to people on here than any other side! I’m obviously assuming no one takes that into account, but for me it’s probably my most liked place in England. Footballing wise having Doak and Robertson there helps too. Aye, I agree with their anti-monarchy and anti-tory stuff, but most of them now are Glory Hunters and Tourists, they have a view that they are some sort of godsend of a club, and they are usually quite deluded. They have a thing for "bantering" other clubs whenever they lose a game (the banter also being unfunny as f**k, it makes me want to shoot myself), and then throw a tantrum when you call them out. Half of them, apart from the 'real' fans, know nothing about football. Also, this: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moomintroll Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 What bit of endangering the safety of an opponent is that slevering fuckwit Neville not getting. Learn the fucking Laws of the Game that you are handsomely paid for pontificating on. Jones could have quite easily broken the other players leg & caused a severe ankle dislocation with his actions, it was a textbook red card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cptn Hooch Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 Surprised VAR hasn't called the ref's attention to a penalty for Brentford there....the attacker nicks the ball off the keeper and gets a kick in the back of the leg for his trouble 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Putting all the controversy aside going down there yesterday was worried lose to an inform Spurs side and Man City could end the day 5 points clear. Gap still just 2 and feel further convinced that Liverpool are the real deal again despite the loss as with 11 / 10 & 9 men they were impressive. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
