Premier League 2024/25

[Blue Maniac]

as a child of the 80s, when the “big 5” were Liverpool, Everton, Arsenal, Spurs and Man U, positions 14-16 on the table ahead of tonight’s match is some sight.

Any of those three go down and I’m happy.

Hilarious decision by Oliver. As MOTD said though, how can VAR agree with the decision?

It was as clear a yellow as I have seen, broke up an attacking break but there was no way he was clear through on goal (there were two defenders goal-side) and the challeange wasn’t reckless or dangerous?

Why can’t these ****s explain why they gave a decision and just say ‘sorry, I got that one wrong?’

At worst VAR should have sent Oliver to the monitor to see it again.

It's always the same isn't it?

It's beyond a joke really. Tennis, Rugby, Cricket have all managed to introduce video tech years or even decades before football & all have made it work for the betterment of the sport.
Football does it & it's a ****ing shambles.

The problem mostly lies with the ****ing appalling standard of refereeing in England. It's been god awful for years now & the exact same ****wits that cock it up on the field are the ones in charge of VAR.
There's literally no point having video evidence if you're going to leave the interpretation of it in the hands of useless ****s.

Video should only be used to decide whether balls are over the goal line or out of play. Not to give offsides against someone's toenail.
I would have said also use it for disciplinary stuff like rugby does but after that abortion the other day they can **** that off too.
