At this rate, we might have to qualify for the Champion's League. How embarrassing.
 
The Mirallas foul is a golden opportunity for retroactive punishment. Nailed on red.
 
Not exactly, it's the same as before except the rules on when an incident has been seen by the officials are relaxed a bit. The ref still has to not see the incident or have an obstructed view, so they can't "re-ref" it.

For ****s sake.

If I did that to you on the street, it's assault. There isn't one good reason that decisions can't be reviewed.:steam:

If the verdict is blatantly wrong, you should get a retrial.
 
So Wes Brown's red will be overturned. They're perfectly happy to re-ref a decision there, so why not the other way round? Everyone knows it's a red. Rodgers knows it, Mirallas knows it, Martinez, despite his pathetic excuses (again) knows it.

It's a can of worms, Khal. FWIW, I agree with you.

I quite understand. I feel the same way about in-game video ref aid. It's perfectly possible, but will they implement it..? Not until hell freezes over or until the Premier League clubs say, that's it, enough crucial bad decisions. That isn't so far away in my opinion. And I don't care if people say it'll take some of the excitement away. What it will do is make the game fairer and more honest.
