    [Albion] Jason Steele appreciation

    Good piece, but I think it is an error to assume it was dumb luck that we had a keeper with Steele's skill set at the club, or that we wanted a manager that would value those skills.

    [Albion] Premier League Summer Series - Philladelphia, Atlanta and New Jersey 22-28/7/23

    7-8 hours of driving is ok, but over here it would be 3 hours of driving, whilst avoiding potholes, interspersed with a total of 6 hours of queuing, navigating detours for road closures, and driving off motorway to find a petrol station where you can fill up and grab a sandwich without having to...

    [Football] The Apology

    Also, if there was only one error in the match, it might be useful if the PGMOL educated the rest of the world as to why their referee was correct in not awarding a penalty for the shirt pull on Dunk or the hand ball by the Tottenham defender, and possibly if the VAR ref would have allowed the...

    [Albion] The Five Clarifications

    Last year Issaac Hayden of Newcastle was fined for bringing the game into disrepute, for this comment ‘Some performance from the boys against 12 men today. Proud to be associated with the club is an understatement.’ Would they dare issue a charge if one of ours said that after Saturday? I I...

    [Football] Changes needed in the EPL and EFL

    5 minutes added time for a yellow card issued for time wasting. Time for treatment added in full, plus 1 minute, for head injury breaks in play. 3 VAR referees, all in agreement to over rule or agree with on pitch Ref, split decision sends ref to monitor.

    [Football] VAR April 2023 Poll - Fit for Purpose?

    I would like to know how/who decides on behalf of PGMOL that their ref got it wrong and an apology is required? Do they have a committee that decides? Do they tally up the opinions of pundits and reporters? Whatever it is, maybe use that method in the f***ing VAR room during the game.

    [Albion] We are top of the league, say we are top of the league!

    Maybe it could never be proven, or maybe there is evidence of Officials being encouraged to favour one side in certain games, there was evidence in Spain and Italy.

    [Albion] We are top of the league, say we are top of the league!

    I still believe that for people that are professional full time football referees, to give the decisions that were given on Saturday, that all benefited one side, there is a concious effort. I can accept the handball goals as subjective decisions that I disagree with, I don't understand how 3...

    [Albion] We are top of the league, say we are top of the league!

    This is not relevant to the quality of the decisions though, VAR may award a penalty or take it away, but we are only really pissed off if the decision is clearly wrong.

    [Albion] Positives from Yesterday

    You think the VAR ref was intimidated by the crowd?

    [Football] The Apology

    Difficult to not let the VAR ref know he is taking the early or late KO, or the only KO on a Friday. Otherwise, I like the idea.

    [Albion] Stand or Fall

    How about reading the several apologies we have had from PGMOL out over the PA just before the refs and teams walk out at all remaining home games ,or a montage of all the shit decisions, and all the commentators reactions of disbelief?

    [Football] The Apology

    Suggest that 3 guys sit in on VAR, in 3 separate locations, and all 3 have to make the same decision for VAR to rule, any difference of opinion sends the on pitch ref to the monitor. This way the on pitch ref knows that at least one colleague disagrees with him, maybe 2, but not all 3, so...

    [Football] The Apology

    PGMOL apologises that however hard they tried, they couldn't find a way to rule out Dunks goal, sorry Tottenham.

    [Football] Going to Yeovil and Lewes made me realize

    You just dont get 15 angles showing how wrong the Ref was in lower leagues.

    [Albion] De Zerbi seemingly wanting a fight before kickoff.

    In pre match interviews, Stellini said De Zerbi was aggressive, so De Zerbi aggressively told Stellini he was wrong.
