Yorkie Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I don't believe there's a conspiracy regarding Liverpool and VAR, though I don't blame anyone for thinking there is. However, should they pip us by a point, then that absolute bullshit during our game at Anfield has ultimately had season-defining implications. Not to mention the farce in the Palace game which followed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Icarus Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 (edited) I get why it's called a conspiracy by its literal definition, it's just unfortunate that that word has connotations which make pointing out season-long red flags that could be anything from ridiculous coincidence and unconscious bias to subtle 'protecting the brand' briefs and just flagrant corruption sound like flat-earther talk. I've genuinely never seen anything like the breadth and depth of the often insane decisions that have consistently gone their way this season. Everything from little things like Fabinho being seemingly card-proof, to players just openly handling the ball in the run up to a goal. If you've noticed it then you'd have to be a complete mark to not think it at least looks a bit dodgy. Edited May 15, 2023 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to mention the farce in the Palace game which followed. Expand The Palace game annoys me far more than the Anfield one. An official who was later in the season sacked for incompetence chalked a perfectly good goal off us that would've put us 1-0 up after looking at loads of replays from alternate angles. Had we gone 1-0 up no doubt in my mind we close that out and win. Completely robbed of 2 points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wormy Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I think what makes Liverpool's blatant benefit of awful refereeing even more crazy to me is that they, and even quite a few neutrals, genuinely think they're hard done by due to a few cherry picked stats.

Saying that, it's a good litmus test when even they say something is fucked up. It happened recently when Jota kicked Skipp's wig off and Lindelof started playing basketball against West Ham.

Expand Wolves aye, but the Bournemouth one is 50/50 imo, I've just watched it again and if the on field ref gives that it doesn't get overturned. But should go both ways, VAR shouldn't overturn it either. But we've had from the top of my head more game changing or potentially result changing decisions go against us this season than not. Wolves (a) Penalty on Longstaff for a shirt pull, 1st half. Liverpool (a) Isak 'offside'. Palace (h) Mitchell fouling Willock and scoring an OG and getting away with it. Man Utd (a) Penalty on Wilson, 1st half. Arguably balanced out by them not getting a pen on Sancho in 2nd half. Just as well we beat Forest and Brentford away as they'd both be on here too.
