Bottle Merchants vs unfortunately

It was allowed

 

Fouls of all kind are missed all the time but it’s not allowed in the rules.

 

We've not had much rub with the pens of late.

Longstaff - Clear and obvious pen - however I can sympathise with the defending team because he is not deliberately being dangerous. Its in the rules though it doesn't have to be intentional. I can also have sympathy with the human making the error. I think the problem is the slow mo. Slowed right down Longstaff stoops into that area after Tarkowski kicks the ball. Reality in real time is those things are happening at the same time virtually so its a pen.
Wilson - Clear and obvious pen for push by TAA

Feel for that West Ham lad. Balbuena - Clear and obvious its not a pen - simply kicked the ball and an unfortunate follow through. Just a lack of understanding of the game, and possibly the disadvantages of watching things in slow mo as opposed to real time. Slowed down or in snapshot, it looks really bad. Real time in full flow you think "that's just unfortunate".

 

If you can't see a clear and obvious error / foul in real time then nothing should be given

 

The West Ham player slipped a little after kicking the ball. It was never a red. Refs should show more balls

 

More???? Did his shorts slip or split or something???? Not sure if that really is a sensible way forward with the use of VAR to be perfectly honest!!!

 

I agree. It’s only when the decision is blatantly incorrect that it should be.

Less of this microscopic crap.

 

Var would probably say the left testicle is offside.

 

Exactly so Longstaffs was not a pen in real time

 

Yes it was, it was clear in real time.

 

The ref didn't think so and neither did var though mate.

 

Because they are corrupt

 

Hitler thought the holocaust was a good idea. Doesn't mean he was right.

 

What on earth are you on about mate

 

Do you really think every decision var and the on field refs make are correct?
I can't believe that you think that people can't be wrong?

 

This ship has sailed for me mate. I think it was blatent: it just wasn’t given.

 

It was a penalty in real time and in slo-mo and in stills and in every alternative universe that exists. It was sooooooo obviously a penalty that Mrs Doubtfire of Dubious Street in Didnthappensville thought it was a penalty never mind Jim.

 

It wasn't a penalty because it wasn't given.

Facts

 

It wasn't a penalty though
