Benwell Lad Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 It was a penalty or, played on and we scored. Either way we were robbed. Again. On a broader note, FIFA or whatever have to do something radical about the grappling at set pieces. It's unedifying, detrimental to the sport and totally out of control.

They'll need referees to stick to the rules super tightly and to create a few weekends where there's a mental amount of pens awarded in order for it to start to reduce IMO.

Yes, it's going to be difficult to redress it. It's what happens when blind eyes get turned and problems become entrenched. No easy solution and probably none better than the one you suggest. VAR - first offence get's the penalty or free kick ? It will only take about ten minutes to decide which way it goes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abacus Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Better yet, in a revolutionary new idea, why not just add on the full time for anyone writhing around on the pitch with an apparent injury when their team is 1 up with 90 minutes to go and let the actual medical staff decide when they come back on? Nah, too simple. If VAR had one use extra use though, I think it should be as simple as a yellow card for anyone who is plainly kicked in the jacksie and then goes to ground clutching their face.

I stick to my perennial solution - the opponent get one free running kick to the balls of the offender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 If players are going to be made to stay off for a minute if they ask for the physio they're going to refuse to get medical attention and injuries will get worse as they don't want to give an advantage to the opposition Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 All it takes is for var to look at incidents with players going down and if there's no contact or feigned injury book the bastards. That'll stop all this falling over lark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Hate this too. Tie is obviously done but the ref feels sorry for the team getting battered so automatically gives them all of the 50/50s and a lot of the 40/60s too. I understand it from a human point of view but it's frustrating being penalised because we're so far in front too, it's professional sport, if it ends 13-0 then so be it, you don't just favour one side because they're getting dicked in the CL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
