GeordieDazzler Posted October 3, 2025 Share Posted October 3, 2025 Just now, Cf said: Read somewhere that the linesman flagged for handball and that VAR couldn't conclusively overturn it being mentioned as if that's some sort of mitigation. That makes sense but isn’t the onfield decision only applicable to the ref and didn’t the ref initially give it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's up there as possibly the worst VAR decision of all time mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafalove Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 (edited) Luckily we turned it on in the second half but this bloke was awful. Missed two handballs and and two penalty’s. Edited October 5, 2025 by Rafalove Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtua Stiva Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 Piss poor. Would blow for the slightest bit of non-contact but gladly ignored every bit of shirt pulling and grabbing. A bizarre mindset. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiesteve710 Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 (edited) Consistently inconsistent which didn't help either team. The shirt-tugging on Burn in the box twice was daft and second time he just bottled it by blowing his whistle to stop proceedings and tell the defender off after the ball was already in play so really no excuse for not giving that one. Would need to see it again but for the penalty I actually thought Bruno fouled Anderson not the other way around. Only other gripe is the lack of protection Woltemade is getting in general. But I'm not too fussed because we won and if anything it'll be good for his development. Edited October 5, 2025 by geordiesteve710 Clarity Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 Hilarious ignoring both of those handballs. Cunt looked like Batman deflecting gunshots. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 Quite funny that we scored from the only time he didn't blow up for someone daring to look at Morgan Gibbs White. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 Every single minor decision today he called wrong. Fucking imbecile of the highest order. They’re meant to be there to let the game flow. Instead, he blew up every single time one of our players was within touching distance of theirs. Also missed two deliberate handballs from them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordie_b Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 Around the 56th minute he blew dead a corner when at least two of our players hit the ground before the corner was taken. It looked very close to having already been taken and therefore a penalty. Anyone got the match recorded to check? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 Proper anti-football ref. God knows how they got away with that pull on Burn (x2!) However, begrudgingly have to say credit where it's due because that was an excellent call on the non-foul before Bruno's goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do they feel the need to slow the game down more to tell them off? Let them do it and give penalties/free kicks and it will stop. Every game they take forever telling players off for stuff that they all already know, winds me up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted October 5, 2025 Share Posted October 5, 2025 What baffles me more than anything is that no matter who the ref or the opposition is, Ryan Yates gets away with being an absolute thug game after game. I mean we have Joelinton, but he's a walking yellow card, Yates is much more of a snide dirty cunt and always gets away with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
