  1. One is clearly a Russian bot, another appears to be an Arsenal, who has a BAME individual as his profile picture.
  2. Can I just add that in the build up to the goal, Joelinton is fouled, it could easily have been brought back for a freekick that Trippier would have slammed in. No one seems to talking about that.
  3. It is, they confirmed it during the week.
  4. It seems like they had 2 men sent off, and another in the sin bin within 5 minutes of the game.
  5. Dermot Gallagher isn’t associated with the Premier League and left before VAR came in. His comments on there is not from a position within the Premier League, but a quotation of what he said on TV during or after the game. I also wouldn’t trust him if he looked at his watch and told me the time.
  6. We get to see some, not all angles. They have even said that 1 person will look at 1 angles, and someone else will look at others.
  7. I went to that Adidas exhibition, fuck me what a load of shit. They were flogging cans of water for £8 man. A picture book of shoes was £37.
  8. That’s not true, broadcasters have been quite clear that VAR have access to more camera’s than they do. We have actually had numerous incidents where this has cropped up, one time when those lines that went diagonally were shown and they came out and clarified that those images were broadcasters images, not VAR images. As I say though, the nature of the goal line technology is that there is a camera along the goal line from each side, as well as others at other points, some of which include top down angles.
  9. Luton are not beating Liverpool.
  10. The MLS playoffs format is a fucking mess.
  11. It was. I would say Bruno’s is a red as well, but if Havertz is given a red for his foul, then I doubt Bruno does what he did. It was reckless, he had no control, and he had no intent to get the ball. It is the decision that we should be looking at as controversial, but instead they are focussing on the goal.
  12. Goal line technology actually does apply all the way across the pitch due to how the camera’s are set up for it. You can see both all the way down the lines from both sides, and from above, although the above bit maybe limited to just above the goal. VAR have access to this, TV broadcasters generally do not.
  13. It wasn’t a foul, that’s actually the least controversial aspect of the decision. The whole soft fouls that have been given in recent years has got us to the point in thinking it’s a foul. Using your hands to gain leverage has always been allowed, it’s down to if excessive force is used to determine if it’s a foul. It’s a bit like the fouls on goalkeepers that are not fouls but accepted as they are.
  14. The amount of times Arsenal have came here and got every decision, and I mean every decision, has been shocking. They have been carried through wins up here so many times I care to remember. The fact that they think they got fucked over by the referee is both an indication of their victim complex, and absolutely laughable.
  15. That West Ham shirt is the bluest blue that I have ever seen.
  16. Aye, both are slight taps on the ankle and both times the player tried to stop himself, but I think both are penalties, although soft ones.
  17. The only thing likeable about him is that he’s finally got rid of that fucking monobrow.
  18. It was a bit one sided on MOTD, they looked at a slow motion replay and stills. Look at it properly and Joelinton doesn’t put any force on him as he’s already swooping down to try and get the ball.
  19. They are some of the biggest whingers ever, only Liverpool fans whinge more than them. Wenger started it with his moaning about everything, and you couldn’t physically challenge them without Wenger whinging about it, even if his team went on to win. This flowed down to the players and their fans. I’ve never seen them lose a game where they hold their hands up and admit that they were outplayed, there is always a reason why they were fucked over.
  20. It kind of is, but not written that way. A player has to be ahead of the ball to be offside, if the ball is played backwards or parallel, then the player can’t be ahead of the ball.
  21. The ball went backwards, the ball has to go forwards for it to be offside.
  22. If that goal decision was Luton vs Palace, it would get a quick 30 second mention on MOTD at best, and they would turn around and say the correct decision was given. It’s Newcastle vs Arsenal though, and it’s gone against a club who are used to the decisions going in their favour. Unless there is something horrific that happens tomorrow with VAR, this is all they are going to talk about for the next week.
  23. Talkshite is listened too by white van drivers who read the sun, and signed the Facebook campaign for Jeremy Clarkson to become PM.
  24. I honestly don’t see how it’s controversial. The only controversial part I saw was that Joelinton was potentially fouled in the build up. The ball never looked out, and the image you see floating about is deliberately misleading and I think BeIN have clarified it with a better image. It wasn’t a push by Joelinton, he was using leverage which you are allowed, and the ball went backwards, so it’s not offside. It all looks a bit like a massive excuse for Arsenal, and Arteta was always going whinge about it.
