    i came to the conclusion some time ago that refs are just using the football equivalent of "owzat" to make their decisions as nothing else makes sense .

    Half the time they just seem to think, "Have I done anything controversial that will get my name in the papers, yet?", then do something ludicrous.
    The refs ****ing up split second decisions was understandable, to a point. The VAR twats making the same mistakes with endless replays are not.

    True, but the year of success will be just that, a single year. Yet just a few months ago, the twats at Sky and BT were talking about a dynasty and how this was one of the greatest club sides ever seen.

    I feel rather smug as i remember pointing out that the VAR officials will be the same loons who **** up week after week so why do people expect them to start getting it right though tbf they have managed to exceed even my "expectations" in that regard <laugh>.

    I thought that they'd continue to be ****, but I don't think that it's possible to be as bad as they have been purely through incompetence.
    Nobody looked at the replay of that Fernandes penalty against Villa and thought it was the correct decision, did they?
    How do two Premier League officials manage it, then?

    Even then you had to rely on gifts raining down from the officials. The last 2 seasons there has been a clear mandate in place to ensure Pool win their entitlement, only last season City were just too good. It has been clear for all to see that once it became apparent Pool were going to win the PL*, the way their games are officiated has changed drastically.

    Is that you can't or won't see what is happening here. And take responsibility for your views, your church cannot tell you how to think. PS put it well below

    Seems as though the conversation has moved on from some black guy making a remark about favouritism towards another person based on his white skin...which was a racist remark

    What else’s was it?


    To my knowledge players don’t get targeted by officials due to the colour of their skin.

    Black Lives Matter but that doesn’t give them the right to talk **** without it being pulled up.

    Apart from anyone that works on Sunday, Egyptian firstborn children, Midianites, a woman who looked at a city and disobedient children.
    And mediums, those that worship other gods, witches, blasphemers, adulterers, gay people, people that shag animals and the animals that they shag.
    Women that might not be virgins on their wedding night, rape victims who don't cry out, apostates... it's quite a list.

    some black guy making a remark about favouritism towards another person based on his white skin...which was a racist remark - It is an accusation of racism. Regardless of that, it was stupid and wrong, but I cannot see that he is being racist himself, just wrongly saying the officials are racist

    What else’s was it? - Stupidity, no more no less


    To my knowledge players don’t get targeted by officials due to the colour of their skin. I have no reason to think that either and I am not saying it is the case

    Black Lives Matter but that doesn’t give them the right to talk **** without it being pulled up. - No argument. Not aware of anyone suggesting it is.

    This is completely separate from what you replied to, that was a poster spouting racist slogans without (I hope) understanding that he is doing so. That is nothing to do with Troopz and his idiot views.

    All racist remarks are stupid and thoughtless...why buffer it because it was a black guy? It might be an accusation but it’s an accusation based on his own prejudice and opinions and he said it without batting an eye lid because he is allowed to and it stems from somewhere deep inside himself. I’d like to see the proof of his convictions but there is none...so why say it? An insecure black man...there you go...we won’t call him racist but he did a great job of blending it.

    My initial response to you was regarding Troopz also.

    Pretty much everybody does in principle. But to say it in response to 'Black Lives Matter' isn't neutral as the reason that phraseology exists is because a lot of society acts like they don't. So by saying all lives matter in response you are effectively saying that you don't care about racial discrimination. Just like saying all cats matter in response to the snow leopard appeal would imply that you don't care about the snow leopard.

    Perhaps so. Say roll a 4 or more and you get a penalty. The trouble is that not all dice have six sides. Spurs roll a 6 sided dice, teams in red roll a 20 sided dice.

    And I know that die is the singluar of dice.

    It's also what one of our players would have to do to get a penalty.
