alexf Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 Those decisions are soft as shite. Wolves must think there is a conspiracy against them this season. It's been more or less every game for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 If you make a challenge in the penalty area, make contact but don't get the ball, you're in trouble. However, it does look like VAR is increasingly favouring the attacker. If that's consistent, then I suppose we can live with it. I wasn't in favour of VAR except for pure matters of fact like offsides and whether the ball has crossed the goal-line. However, now that it's here, we have to expect a period of adjustment until some level of stability is achieved. Ultimately, I suppose, there has to be some acceptance by managers and pundits that the system is operated by human beings and some decisions are very difficult. If everyone's going to continue moaning like this, then maybe it'll soon be time to revert to 'fact only' decisions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 I have a major issue with contact meaning penalty. I know you’re getting into subjective areas but basically any contact with legs is now being considered as a pen. We know that players love to fool refs so we’re going to see even more trailing legs and collisions that were never going to lead to goals being awarded as pens. Feel like the refs should be braver when it comes to contact in the box. Was it dangerous? Did it stop a goal scoring opportunity? Was the contact enough to bring someone down? These are questions that should be asked. If the answer is yes to any of those it’s a pen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I think there's a real chance of trouble at our match against Legia Warsaw on Thursday. An argument involving the police, Villa and UEFA about restricting their ticket allocation (due 2,100, we gave them 990) - after their fans kicking off at AZ Alkmaar. The Polish ambassador involved (really), and they reckon loads of them coming without tickets. Lots of talk about Brum based Polish community wanting (and probably managing to get) tickets. They also kicked off really badly at Leicester a few years ago. At the fixture at their place, they held our fans back over two hours afterwards, the police were very handy with their shields, we had no access to toilet facilities and got charged for tap water - all this because their Ultras were so intent on kicking off outside after. I dunno, it might amount to nothing, but being of the age where you've seen this happen lots of times, I just smell something in the air. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 @brummie think you might regret selling Jaden Philogene? He looks far too good for the Championship. Unless you've got a buy back clause? Think you've got a buy back for Ramsey at Burnley if I'm not mistaken Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, buy back on him at 15m, similar to Ramsey and Archer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Django Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Always find it hilarious when Pep mentiones how much spirit his team has, what battling qualities they show. Like they're a normal team. They're far and away the best team in Europe if not the world. The have the most expensively assembled squad, the best coach and unlimited resources. Reversing a 0-2 scoreline against relative minnows should be business as usual. The notable thing is them being 2 down to begin with. I guess he's just reframing the narrative and thinks we're all idiots (or at least their fans) like most top team coaches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
