[Albion] Premier League 27-30/11

[Weststander]

Old Flobby the Scouse **** decides VAR is no good. Literally nobody gives a shit what he thinks.

I agree with you, but he was saying most fans hate VAR. They do, by a huge margin.

NSC was a place that VAR was loathed, until Villa and Liverpool. @HWT was a lone voice on the forum in favour.

No, that's fair. I have consistently not wanted VAR, ever. I bet Carragher was in favour.

 

[Weststander]

It is clearly a directive. The cheating tonight was off the scale.

I said on another recent thread.

Some EPL and Championship clubs MUST BE coaching diving, slapping the turf, protracted parachute rolls and ear piercing screams.

Not one rogue player per club, but systematic acting lessons for the squad.

This goes far beyond “well that was a naive challenge by the defender”.

Villa top of the cheating tree.

 

[Sheebo]

Tresetwat and the diver getting more VaR decisions against them (both cheating again!) is the only thing about VAR making me happy right now - haha ‘the massive villa’ will be annoyed eh!

 

[drew]

Likewise. Can't stand West Ham but really happy that they won. Villa are a disgrace. Really hope they go down.

Don't forget though that the London stadium is normally a happy hunting ground for us in respect of points.

Villa ruined that game as a specttacle.

If they hadn't spent the second half with 10 men while 1 player was consistently rolling around on the floor, they'd have pissed past the Newcastle of the South, that is West Ham.

At least three players rolling around on the floor on a regular basis. Grealish taken out by a sniper five seconds after his arm was brushed. Trezegeut hurling himself at the deck when nobody touched him....... Then Konsa got in on the act.

I'd be embarrassed if I was a Villa fan. They are a total disgrace to football.

 

[Steve in Japan]

Neville is right. Fans do hate it. Wait until you've got a full house, and you start ****ing up a decision.

Agreed.

If you stop watching the football and just look around the pitch.
Plenty of Villa players were hitting the deck, to a man they all got up as play continued.

There were 2 on the nearside of the pitch in the last 10 minutes.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Lol spat between benches ..someone called Grealish a diver and a cheat ...hard to say otherwise

 

[Dick Head]

Meltdown back in the studio. It's funny as ****!

Indeed. Smith is either complicit in the systematic cheating or he doesn't have control of his players. Either way it means he's a useless manager.

Villa made Palace look like an honorable football team this evening, and that's a big ask.

As an aside, Tyrone Mings is a TERRIBLE football player. He was totally rubbish again tonight and yet Southgate still picks him for England.

The sooner we (England) lose a few games and the Palace prick gets sacked the better.

Ridiculous that one of the worst defenders in the PL is playing for the national team.

 

[Sheebo]

Moyes rightfully calling Trezeguet out for another dive. Add that to last week. Wasn’t there a new rule on retrospective action against proven cheats like him...

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

I honestly think that’s the first time I’ve ever been pleased with a West Ham win! Villa have done remarkably well to make themselves so detestable to all fans.

But yet again, VAR is just really shit. It has to go.

 

[Dick Head]

Jamie Carragher makes my ears hurt.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Good for JC to bring up the Salah ‘dive’

Quite. I’ve been saying it for ages, the decision to make Mings a regular member of the England squad is not just a bit odd, it’s totally negligent. Just because he’s left footed.

He’s not even at Premier League level, he’s totally out of his depth there. He’s a Championship full back. I can’t think of another England player less deserving of a cap, ever. And I include Carlton Palmer, Jay Boothroyd and Gavin McCann in that list.

Retrospective action only if you successfully con the ref. Yet to see the FA really crack down on it though!

 

[Sheebo]

how did moyes put it?

Said there was a slight tug on shirt but nothing to warrant the fall. If I remember rightly the prick grabbed his face same as last week. As he’s not very well known it won’t get the publicity but he’s one of the worst I’ve seen...!
