[Albion] The Premier League - 17/06/20

[Steve in Japan]

Should be replayed IMO.

I thought that was a joke when I first saw it. The ball must have been over the line for at least 1-2 seconds, there’s no way it couldn’t have seen that.

It’s certainly a frank admission that their own technology cannot be trusted 100%.

Villa might win the replay though

Zhaka is a great DM, they’re ‘Stephens’ won’t be playing at the Amex now I would have thought.

I think that, given this line-up, Arteta seems to be targeting three points on Saturday, rather than on Wednesday.

Yes, there is that!

But on a serious note, I think we tolerate VAR because we're told it will eliminate the worst of errors. The Thierry Henry handball vs Ireland for example. If VAR doesn't do that, then bin it, surely. That's why tonight's error is very difficult for the PL.

VAR should have stepped in anyway. Piss poor decision in a piss poor game which pissed all over the social distancing regulations that were agreed.

All in all an embarrassing return for premier league football. They should quickly give it up as a bad idea.

Fun fact - Kyle Walker coming in for Man City tonight marks the first point since lockdown started that he's actually been in

 

[Change at Barnham]

Now Arsenal defender Mari injured.

 

[Hugo Rune]

And that’s two.

 

[Dick Head]

Is that Marí gone too?

 

[Smirko]

Another Arsenal player bites the dust.......

They are saying they didn't have a camera looking directly along the goal line from one side of the ground

There is nothing obscuring this view at all.

 

[The Wizard]

Can someone tell the players they need to put the ball into this thing please.

It’s absolute bullshit. Why did var not get involved? Embarrassing all round for Premier League, and not good enough, considering some of the minuscule decisions that have been made not to award goals this season.

This is weird as f@ck!

 

[GT49er]

Probably. It’s the one thing though that simply shouldn’t go wrong, and yet it did. Will be interesting to see what is said to excuse the error.

Will we get to see Dermot Gallagher's preposterous justification on SSN after the weekend?

First one ...you can always rely on DL for a clanger

Oh dear sideshow bob.
