Have you ever watched football before? How often does that happen at a penalty? I've never seen a goal keeper claiming for a retake based on encroachment, neither for a double touch.

How many questionable handballs (not yesterday's I add) are given from VAR? The two penalties in the Rangers v Morton game last week were marginal decisions - certainly not clear and obvious errors. Maybe I'm wrong, but it looks that loads of decisions are over turned by VAR when they're not 100% sure, but on balance think the referee made an error. This is the crux of it for me. It feels like the threshold this season seems to be higher, and could just be we've been unlucky to have been on the wrong end of that increased threshold twice - with one of those costing us two points. Will be interesting to watch how the 'clear and obvious' criteria pans out in the coming weeks and months. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides who cares it was two days ago. Not sure why you've replied if you don't care. But if you zoom into the ball it is 100% clear that Miovski hits the ball with his left foot into his right heel. Delighted it wasn't disallowed though. 1 hour ago, Fraser Fyvie said: Not really. Interesting view. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the referee deems there to be no way the ball could make that movement without a double touch why should he not overturn it? Do you even physics bro? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very very rare and citing one example from the hundreds and hundreds of games that took place last season in a different league doesn't change that fact. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain_Sensible Posted August 29, 2023 Share Posted August 29, 2023 4 hours ago, Thenorthernlight said: As @AngusTheBull mentioned above, what about the penalty appeal we had for hand ball after the one we got? That kind of fell under the radar? Was the players arm at his side? Probably but they never showed that as forensically as the others I’ve said before that I think we got away with that one. It happened right in front of me and my initial reaction was penalty. I know his arm was by his side but it looked to me like he deliberately played the ball with his arm. I was relieved when it wasn’t given I half think that VAR didn’t give it because they’d already let you away with the double touch penalty I’d have been interested to see this one again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are there not VAR cameras behind the goals though? Presumably that was inconclusive too? Does St Mirren TV / Sportscene not have access to VAR cameras behind the goal? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
