Ben Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 If West Brom win this then bear us next week thats only 5 points gap If WBA catch us then we are down in anyway. I could see a situation where both Newcastle and Brighton go down Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although that is only what the commentator said. Cos it looks like the second whistle might have come after the goal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinitely Content Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I would prefer refereeing errors to be refereeing errors, and for them have to just take responsibility for it. As things are with VAR, refs just do any old shit and then stand about waiting for VAR to pick up the pieces. I'd argue it's reducing the standard of officiating which was already low. There he just gave the goal when he didn't have a clue what he had done and why he blew his whistle, had no intention of justifying his decision to the players who this impacts massively and instead just waited about for it to be corrected for him. Would much prefer the game to just accept the element of misjudgement and error, it's so shite watching players surrounding the referee asking them the question, crying about checking a monitor and they just stand about with their finger on their earpiece not saying a word. No accountability. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Good. Two refs that I have hated recently having major fuck ups and highlighted massively. mike Dean and Lee Mason, just hang up or smash away your whistle. Or go to Sunday League or somewhere.

BlueStar Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 What happened? Fuck knows Had just started setting up for a free kick and there was a whistle, so Dunk took it quick with players and keeper not in position, as it hit the net, the ref blew again. Some milling around and confusion with ref talking to players, assumption being it's been disallowed. Ref then gives it. Ref then calls everyone back, seems to be indicating for it to be retaken. Then decides he wants to look at VAR. Nothing wrong with it by the looks. Maybe he's looking to see if it was before or after the whistle? But then hang on, apparently word is the first whistle was to indicate some kind of infringement in terms of, fuck knows, a bit of a tussle or players standing over the magic spray? So the second whistle was to indicate the kick should be taken, but the ball was already in the air... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Is this not the perfect example of why we should be able to interview officials after the game? Not to destroy them for making a mistake but to at least give chance to explain their thought process. And yeah it might be that they've fucked up but we need to break down this utterly absurd disconnect between referees which has only been clouded even further with VAR. If they want us to fucking clap for them to show them respect, then start showing players, managers and fans some respect - have some accountability and open dialogue.

Wullie Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Mason's the worst ref in the league for me. I hate the refs stopping quick free kicks generally. It's supposed to be an advantage for the taking team, if your wall or keeper's not ready, tough shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 I think he’s blown the whistle without thinking about and he’s then tried to blow it again when he’s realised a shot has been taken. Incredibly unlucky for Brighton but it wouldn’t have been fair on West Brom. He’s dropped a huge bollock. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Mason's the worst ref in the league for me.

Stifler Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 The worst thing is he’s cocked up, and whatever he decides is going to upset someone. Instead of standing by his decision he goes back on it, then goes against VAR advice and only then realised that he needs to just do what VAR has said and re-take the free kick. He’s went from making 1 mistake, to making 4 in order to correct his 1 mistake. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 A quick free quick is either immediate or you wait for the whistle which should only be taken when both teams are ready. Mason has had a brain fart and just blown his whistle without thinking/ out of habit. He wasn’t even looking at how West Brom were set up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tsunami Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 You ask the ref if you can take the free kick if you want to take it quick he’ll either say yes or wait for the whistle. Mason simply blew his whistle without thinking and the tried to stop it. Idiot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
