[Albion] Premier League 24-25/8/24

[Triggaaar]

That's a poor VAR decision. Doesn't look like handball to me, and certainly not enough to overturn.

 

[Triggaaar]

Joelinton should be off

 

[Badger]

That's surely a red

 

[LamieRobertson]

That's surely a red

Has to be…can’t see how white nasher man can argue with it

 

[Triggaaar]

Awful officiating

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Or not

Or yes.... edit. Boooo

 

[zefarelly]

Awful officiating

COmpletely lost the plot ( if he ever had one) no doubt a saudi cheque will be in the post.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Very tough call for the bottom three this season. Half the EPL is shit

 

[Badger]

That was poor.
I'm not convinced that was a handball, it looked like it came off his shoulder.
That Joelinton challenge would have been a red card in RUGBY, let alone football.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Awful officiating

For that ball to go in that direction at that speed…no way handball..oh good the pundit says the same as I’ve just posted

 

[Triggaaar]

Howard Webb, you're employing incompetent morons. Which basically means you're incompetent too.

 

[lawros left foot]

Plucky robbed there.


Joe Linton is a very lucky boy not to be sent off, I can’t see what wasn’t a sending off in that.

2 Newcastle games this season and 2 wrong red card decisions.

Exactly.

There's no way that was conclusive proof that it hit his arm.

And how on earth a deliberate off the ball clotheslining isn't a red I'll never know.

 

[Nobby]

Almost unbelievable incompetence from Coote and the VAR
Said most fans
Every
Single
Week

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Exactly.

Well the new rule lasted a whole week then

Why didn't he go to the screen

 

[Deadly Danson]

I must be watching something different. That's 100% come off his arm. Correct decision (although probably not in the spirit of the game).

 

[Badger]

On the coverage I'm watching, Efan Ekoku said "Oh yeah, that's clearly a handball". I'm not sure he was watching the same match.

I agree I think it did, but isn't it now refs calls for incidents like that?

 

[Easy 10]

Chelsea played on Thursday in Conference League play off

However, from next season all the Sunday 2pm games will be televised.

Ahh ok, thanks. That was totally off my radar. I have no idea who they played, or the score. Neither do I care.

Not Refs call. Factual. It really couldn't be clearer. If it had hit his shoulder it wouldn't have gone in that direction.
