Fair comment.

Genuinely don't see those as stonewall penalties. Outside the box it isn't a stonewall freekick. Splitting hairs, for sure, and I think the "high bar" is the right approach for VAR, so happy to accept it should have stood.

In the ground I thought it might be a penalty. On the Replay I thought it might not be a penalty. Archetypal - stick with the ref's decision. Commentator says - shoulder to shoulder and is genuinely shocked the pen is given. Looking back on the replay she then says probably just enough to not...

You obviously don't listen/read any Arsenal fan comments.. What exactly am I wrong about? I said it wasn't a clear penalty. My definition of a clear penalty is one where VAR would be forced to overrule the onfield decision. If the ref hadn't given it, you think VAR would have overturned the...

Assumed it was just the worst of the online trolls claiming it was a fair tackle. My Forest supporting work colleague is of the opinion it was a fair challenge....

It isn't managed consistently. It's another one of the small margins the big clubs get. WHL last season and Emirates this season. Flags going up straight away for our offsides. Played on until a shot for them. at least once at WHL, a corner was given away as the lino decided to not flag at...

That opinion comes from having seen it on the highlights. in the ground I thought it was a pen and Baleba had been clumsy.

I couldn't. It was pretty loud around me in the North and felt it was the best one so far. Where were you sitting? I heard the Forest singing their Mull of kintyre song immediately after we finished. I thought it was a direct response, to how good our singing was..

It wasn't a clear penalty. The challenge happens because Hudson Odoi stretches for the ball and makes contact with Baleba's leg whilst he's attempting a shoulder charge. A coming together. If the ref doesn't see that as a penalty, VAR wouldn't have overturned it.

The ref showed his level of competence, by deciding that "getting the ball" was enough to negate giving a clear card. Since when has it been ok to clatter through a player if your foot touches the ball on the way through?

Yep that has been widely report and is correct. Pretty sure the Ref had his heart broken by a Sussex girl and is still working through some issues.

It looked like a red to me Feet off the ground Forceful Going through the bqck of the player. Terrible initial decision from the ref, who was doing his best to lose control of the game at that point.

Must be nice to have a ref add on the time that had been wasted in the extra time allocated.

Well if Arteta wants "consistency" and Pedro should have received a card for booting the ball away (before the whistle had been blown). I'm sure he will think, "Fair enough, I have no complaints"

Ha. Same here.

Ridiculously optimistic on here. 3-1 My real world punts are 1-1 0-0 0-1

Julio Enciso He knew the place to go Although he's never seen the boys from the Withdean He felt it everywhere He breathed in the sea air And then he said to me f*** CPFC And repeat (may have got the order of the lines wrong) Edit: No idea what song it's based on.

might help if you can remember some words... I assume it's not Julio ENciso's song, as that's been around for ages. But it's the only long winded chant I can remember from Wolves

Yeah - but one of those difficult ones. Refs probably interpret that as excessive force in a "man and ball" situation.
