Nobody Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 The shirt pull ok Burn in their penalty area from a Trippier free kick man. Not even a replay shown of it. Then Joelinton gets absolutely destroyed by two of their players but still gets away from them, but when he touche Caicedo (IIRC), aye that's a free kick. Got a feeling both sets of fans will call this bloke a useless twat Tbf, was quite a few times our players were looking for a free kick and he bought it nearly every time.

Slim Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 On the whole I thought the ref was fine tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likelylad Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Yeah, wasn't terrible but there were couple suss decisions. Bruno yellow for his first foul etc. Nothing comes close to Villa for me in recent memory. Never seen such a bollocks performance for the whole 90 mins from a ref.

geordiesteve710 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 When VAR reviews Wilson's attempt to win a penalty, they should really be saying to the ref "that's a clear dive, it's a yellow card." I get that simulation is a bit of a grey area and sometimes it's hard to tell in real time, but when they've stopped and reviewed the incident anyway then they know. I suppose there's the question of should the video ref be making the decision for the on-field ref and if not do we really want a further stoppage while the on-field ref reviews the incident for what is only a yellow card offence (clearly not.) But when it's that obvious there should be a way to enforce it. Would also be a stronger deterrent if strikers knew that there's jeopardy for them when the incident is reviewed.

nortoon Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Really agree that there should be an exception to card people in retrospect for diving. There is no deterrence now. You might succeed in fooling the VAR team, but if you dont there is no punishment most likely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
huss9 Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 looks like no one gives a f*** anymore unless its outside the box. there was one at leeds on Isak just as bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHoob Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I don't think that Wilson's should be a pen but when you look at say Nunez getting awarded the pen against Fulham it's just the lack of consistency which infuriates people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably would agree with that too. Some var guy could go "clear obstruction off the ball there" and at next stop of play give a yellow. Line has to be drawn somewhere though and even if its just for diving inside the penalty area specifically I would like that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Really didn't think there was anything outlandishly bad. Bruno's yellow card was a stupid decision but aside from that he wasn't anywhere near the worst we've seen this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Thought he was mainly good and protected us quite well at the beginning. The yellow from Bruno was a bit harsh but it looked worse from my angle too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KetsbaiaIsBald Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 When he booked Bruno I though he was going to go card crazy and influence the game with a sending off. Fortunately he calmed down and we only got 1 more. I guess that shows that he genuinely thought it was worth a yellow. I thought he did ok, which is a lot better than my average opinion of a ref. I think the Liverpool connections could have actually had the reverse result as he knew he would be slaughtered if there was anything dubious that was game changing.

nortoon Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 I think the frustration with the Bruno yellow was the fact that Bruno has been on the receiving end of so many of those recently and consistently the offender has just been allowed to keep doing it again and again.

KetsbaiaIsBald Posted May 19, 2023 Share Posted May 19, 2023 Was the 8 minutes justified? It really made me laugh as it's always a lot when we're ahead by 1.

We slowed the game down loads in the second half. Joelinton seemed to go down about half a dozen times, Willock's injury and the subs means it was about right, imo.
