Tsunami Posted April 26 Share Posted April 26 How didn’t West Ham get a penalty for handball yesterday? Apparently just a normal grappling from behind into a hug and effectively punching the ball. Trying to say he didn’t know the ball was there, where the fuck did he think the ball was then? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 (edited) Think it was brought up a while back and thought it was canny funny that getting a red for it was the thing seen as utter woke nonsense and not...pulling someone's hair.

joeyt Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 “I don’t think it’s a surprise to anyone this season that if there’s a VAR intervention or if there’s something that could be left or right (50-50) then the decision goes against us," Slot told reporters post-match. "That has been the whole season, every single time the same." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Bruno Fernandes seemed to get away with a blatant red card earlier, not sure VAR even reviewed it. Went in off the ground with studs up right on a guy's ankle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went in off the ground with studs up right on a guy's ankle. I don’t have an issue with it not being a straight red. It was more the fact he got away with the most blatant yellow card earlier in the half. I know you could argue that he then doesn’t make such a daft challenge when on a yellow. But he was lucky, either way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Went in off the ground with studs up right on a guy's ankle. Wasn't off the ground, wasn't studs up and it was below the ankle. A clear yellow. Calling it a blatant red is an insane take. 4 minutes ago, Lush Vlad said: I don’t have an issue with it not being a straight red.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 (edited) I’ve definitely seen reds for it, it was out of control and contacted with studs up. It was nasty. Haven’t watch a replay but IIRC the sole of his foot made contact. Edited May 3 by AyeDubbleYoo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven’t watch a replay but IIRC the sole of his foot made contact. You said he seemed to get away with a blatant red but haven't seen a replay? Come on Ian. It was just a mistimed tackle. His leading leg was bent, there wasn't any force at all. Would have been two red cards if Casemiro done it mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've posted in the dogawful officiating thread using words like blatant to describe an incident that you've not even really looked at. Just seems a bit silly to me. I would encourage you to analyse his every action going forward though. What a player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoreboard82 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 On 02/05/2026 at 20:47, The Butcher said: Another red card for hair pulling. This nonsense must stop. Bit late discussing this but I'm not having all this justification of hair pulling. Likes of Le Bris and total sport pundits saying it happens accidentally from time to time in an attempt to grab the shirt. I know it happens but when did shirt pulling become a fair and accepted part of the game. Shouldn't be grabbing anything. One pundit said "Why don't managers just tell players to grow their hair?". I don't watch much women's football but i've never seen them pulling those long pony tails. Sometimes stumble across the old "Big Match Revisited" from the 70s and 80s and never see any hair pulling. Charlie George, Stan Bowles, numerous perms, Keegan, Souness and more. Don't ever recall hearing of any hair pulling. It's dirty, sly behaviour and pleased when it's punished.

Tisd09 Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 (edited) Seems the best place to post this. Haven't long came back in from coaching my local pub team. Meaningless end of season game but the referee performance was a shocker. He's a young lad. Maybe 20 and it's not the first time he's covered our team, he told me a few months ago he was taking U12's games. Well for the third time he has been well out of his depth both teams had some terrible decisions against them. It was hard to keep cool but had to remember his age and after all this is just pub football. It seems almost impossible to give any kind of feedback about his performance and I don't want to be that kind of person just negatively slagging off I want to offer my observations on the game to support the young lad. He takes us again on Saturday, last game of the season its a pretty meaningless game but the team we are playing are notorious in our area and I generally worry about the potential abuse he will receive from the opposition with a similar performance. According to our app he's had an assessors to monitor him at each of the games he has taken with us but I've not seen one at the park, if he was there I would love to see what kind of notes were being made. Thankfully we won last kick of the game regardless so no real sour grapes from me 👀⚽ Edited May 7 by Tisd09 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordie_b Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 VAR didnt sound like they were sure about it, then ref watches it under the normal impression that he should change his mind. At no point did they look at the sequencing of the other events. Not a great look for VAR imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted May 12 Share Posted May 12 So Darren England decides it’s a foul immediately. Everything else then becomes secondary and he just brushes over it. Demonstrated by his description of the Raya incidenr as “a possible foul” and everything else as “the actions”. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who’s to say the West Ham player doesn’t get a head to the ball if he isn't fouled by two players at the same time. It’s utter madness. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Prontonise Posted May 13 Share Posted May 13 From a friend but this sums up that ref mic up show Quote I do admire the thought that went into the ref mic'd up show though... "Right lads, Howard is going on tele, who do we get in to make him seem less of a slimy cunt?" "Jermain Jenas?" "Very sleazy, but the grannies still like him" "Richard Keys?" "Good option, but too busy shaggin young'uns abroad now" "Tim Lovejoy?" "Horrible cunt for sure, but too busy on the breakfast shows now" "I've got it...Michael Owen!" "Perfect, everyone hates that cunt!" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
