Got horrible feeling it's not going very be our day

Football is now a ****ing joke as are the refs

 

[maltaseagull]

You cannot be offside for a throw in but from a free kick for a foul you can. Seems odd.

 

[nwgull]

If a decision takes so long to review, then by definition it cannot be a clear and obvious error.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Tross very quiet this game (and last couple).

Absolutely disgraceful it takes 5 minutes to come up with that mawepu was off side but he never touched the ball and was no way interfering with the keeper’s line of sight, the referee needed to grow a pear and stick to his on field decision

 

[Bodian]

Mind you - it was probably a dive by Webster for the free kick!!.....

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

This is what people warned would happen with VAR.

Can’t have common sense with off side, he’s off or on.

It’s a joke.

 

[US Seagull]

Shocking. Mwepu didn't even touch the ball

 

[Bodian]

This is what people warned would happen with VAR.

Can’t have common sense with off side, he’s off of on.

It’s a joke.

But you can have common sense as to whether he was interfering with play or not.

If it was an attempt by Mwepu then it is offside. Hugely frustrating but there you go.

That has made me feel better and agree (Mwepu shouldn't have gone for it - what was he hoping for the clown ?) but my anger is that it's not clear it's offside. Those ****ing lines are bollocks. You can't see what the Leicester player is doing behind. In one image his shirt seems to play him onside. Bollocks. Do thicker lines and have more goals. Wankers.

I thought it was VAR that ruled offsides, not the ref? I thought the ref chalked the goal off for dangerous play/high boot.

Again, VAR not telling people what the fu*k is going on.

Can’t have common sense with off side, he’s off of on.

It’s a joke.

The slo mo for VAR is 50 frames per second. For a player running at 8 m/s (a very mediocre sprint) that gives a margin of error of 15cm, so no VAR is not definitive for a 1mm decision.

 

[Ethelwulf]

Going to lose 2-3 now not albions fault football is a joke now ruined by middle aged men not fit enough to referee

 

[Codner's Wallop]

I’ve just stirring from this bizarre nightmare In which we dominated against a dismal Leicester side and we’re still at 2-2….

Wake me up please…

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

But you can have common sense as to whether he was interfering with play or not.

He went for the ball, it would be classed as interfering.

 

[Mike Small]

Mwepu has to lift that gently. Easy from here I know.

Need Trossard further up the pitch/bring Pervis on and Lamptey for March
