Skeletor Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Just another example that refs are bribed and corrupt as fuck. Another in a long line of examples this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1881 Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 5 minutes ago, morpeth mag said: I disagree. These little cynical fouls need to be eliminated from the game. Joelinton is the worst on our team but Citeh and others are the worst offenders at killing a break. I'd like sin bins or similar for any player making a deliberate foul and clubs docked points / fined if their team are consistent offenders. whilst I absolutely agree that we need to find a way of cutting out all the cynical fouls and quite like the idea of a sin bin we then have the problem of all the cheating and play acting so athe wrong person might be punished. I think a retrospective fine system after each game which is based on a percentage of a clubs income may be a more effective deterrent. I still think the initial foul would have not earned a booking in most games particularly as it was in the first-half when many referees don’t punish hardly any fouls. It was noticeable that the ref let much worse fouls go without bookings in the second half. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Joel Inton Posted March 5 Share Posted March 5 Can anyone tell me how this was given as offside this evening? Is it even possible for your head to be ahead of your knee when you are running in that manner, without your upper body being completely bent over? Would love to see the testing of this semi automated offside because decisions like this and many others this season just seem totally bizarre. And why does the graphic they show always have the player in a different position to the real life one? This one from yesterday in Villa v Chelsea, the Chelsea player’s foot is in a completely different position on the graphic to the real image. Mings is also leaning away from the goal but appears stood up straight in the graphic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pata Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Trippier went to Bankes after the HT whistle and Bankes pointed at his ear and told Trippier to go away. Pretty certain he gave the second yellow to Ramsey due to the lino. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said it for ages we're too nice and make ourselves an easy target to be on the wrong end of bad decisions because we rarely kick up a stink over them. Arsenal, Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool, Chelsea get a ridiculous amount of decisions go their way season after season and on the pdd occasion something goes against them you can bet your bollocks they'll cause uproar. Unfortunately we need to do the same. Put some pressure on Howard Webb and his team of useless cunts. Imagine if any of them had been on the wrong end of all those decisions at Villa Park the other week! We'd still be hearing about it now. They would have made sure of that.

Tsunami Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 (edited) Seen mixed opinions about Ramsey’s 2nd yellow. If there’s any kind of higher bar for a 2nd yellow it wasn’t applied here and I simply can’t see what else Ramsey could have done. He fairly gently prods the ball, he’s genuinely trying to get on the other end of it as opposed to banging the ball in the hope that the keeper hits him. He may or may not get clipped by the keeper but his brain has already prepared for a collision so his right leg goes to avoid collision. This puts him out of stride, he over strides on his left and lands force forward on his left foot. To avoid potential injury to his left ankle his brain tells his body to fall. It looks awkward but it’s undoubtedly natural. Edited March 6 by Tsunami Last 2 photos should be other way around Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nemtizz Posted March 6 Share Posted March 6 Wanks points for a goal kick and clearly has no intention of booking him until he's surrounded by Man U players. Why the fuck did he hesitate to give the pen, too? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted March 7 Share Posted March 7 No big clanger today for a change, but loads of fouls on the transition that weren't given as yellows, meaning they just continued to do it all game without a care in the world knowing the soft clart with the whistle was too shit scared to wave one.

Only gave the red because Man U players surrounded him. Would love us to call it out. The amount of shit decisions, season defining that have gone against us this season is pathetic. Same referee that let sunderland boot us all over the pitch in December and only got the cards out once there was a punctured lung yet on Wednesday he's decided shirt tugs in the opposition half are a straight yellow. And he's an Everton fan. And his complexion looks like he's allergic to vitamin D?? Something doesn't smell right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Something needs doing about repeated fouling just to stop breaks and fouls off the ball or late to stop a player attempting to join a break. Something like Basketballs team fouls perhaps but what could the penalty be ? Free kick from 20yds or something like that ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gola Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Minor point but Nico booted the ball away earlier on and didn't get a yellow. Why? Things like this really fuck me off, as that's incredibly easy to judge and enforce. Changes the game if he's on a yellow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Chalk and cheese from Wednesday in terms of giving/ not giving yellows for shirt pulling. Couple of clear yellow not given. Other than that inconsistency (which must bug managers and players) he let 6 or so City players berate him after a ridiculous penalty appeal early on and he booked Joelinton at the 1st opportunity.

The ref set his stall out, at that exact moment, to not pull them up on anything.

Sima Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 What the fuck was Guardiola kicking off about the end btw? He had to be pulled away from the referee. More cringeworthy theatre in his “He’s such a perfectionist that even after he’s coasted to another victory, he’s demanding more.” schtick? I can’t stand the cunt.
