as if Aldo would be bothered if it was just impacting us? The fact it makes Liverpool's job of winning the league harder is the only reason he's annoyed.

Lets remember - this the maggot who laughed and ruffled Brian Laws head after he scored an own goal in a game where football really didn't or shouldn't matter, this is the bloke who bullied a young lad to the point of suicide at Tranmere.....

Horrible man.

I dont care what they say now, the ref clearly signalled with his motion of the hand drawing out a line across the pitch that he thought it was offside.

IMO Richarlison just was off too.

That was the decision they should have made.

No question it was handball.

It was the second phase that was offside not richy's run.

No offense, but was he offside or wasn’t he? I thought you said he was, now you are saying he wasn’t? Which one is it? ?‍♂️

It looked offside to me. That's all I can say.

My point is that others can use VAR lines all day about how it was onside but they are being inconsistent - as they reject other VAR decisions in the same actual move!

Ergo: I reject the bunkum of VAR. It has zero credibility to me. I stick with my own judgement. It may be right or wrong, but at least it's mine and I'm not being conned by a scam system that protects the interests of the elite teams.

I have to say this is the weirdest argument you’ve probably made about anything.

It wasn't offside - it was reviewed and wasnt offside....... the ref and var confirmed this, so there. The question was "was it hand ball" - well was it? It was wasnt it.

Forget VAR - it's a sham. Yesterday's denial of Chelsea underlined that.

Just use your own judgment in real time. Dont be conned into believing that their images reflect reality.

IMO, Richarlison was off for that phase of play.

funny enough just seen David James on sky and he reminds me of you "he tried the "my opinion" line to be edgy to try and be relevant. The presenter was just smirking at him as if to say "yeah ok mate, get back to your nintendo you whopper"

I think they need to get you with Jamo and Chris Sutton.... essential viewing.

I'll tell you what: you carry on being conned by VAR and handing that bogus system legitimacy and I'll carry on getting it either right or wrong by using my own judgement and having a mind of my own.

you seem obsessed with this "mind of your own"......... you are a big fan of your own mind aren't you. Time to start being its impartial spectator Dave.... let the ego go lad. The mind will churn stuff out - imagine its a free running stallion - stop trying to put a saddle on it and ride round on it with your ten gallon hat.
 
Just throw VAR in the bin, it's one of the many things destroying proper footy. Referees and particularly linesman might actually start taking responsibility during games and make a decision. There'll always be the blatant gaff, but VAR was supposed to end that, but I swear it's increased.

It's no big deal: I think (that is I THINK) it was offside. You believe it was onside based on where the VAR system told you the pass was made and where Richarlison was at that point of the pass and draw a different conclusion.

I'm relaxed about that.

the ref on the pitch missed it anyway so if there was no VAR we still wouldn't have got a penalty.
they need to improve the officials whether they're on the pitch or in the VAR room.
probably need to pay them more too so they aren't susceptible to a bung which i believe kavanagh has had.

VAR isnt the problem. There are still bent humans operating it. Took two mins to get it wrong, those two mins, Tierney could have just gone and had a look at himself and gone yes or no. Better spent two minutes. Situations like that are not helping the refs on the pitch at all.

Open the communicaiton line for public hearing, make refs do interviews after games. That will give them some accountability and you know what, when there is a debatable decision. The ref can come out and explain his side, and he'll get some repsect and understanding for it, even if people don't agree.

At the moemnt they get a blatent decision wrong and theres no accountability, no "Well, this is how I saw it at the time". It's just pure silence and hollow apologies that are reactive and too late. If a referee, who is in charge of the match knows he will have a couple of questions asked at full time. Do you think Paul Tierney leaves that in the hands of Kavanagh? or says, im facing the music, I'm going to go and make the decision myself as its me whos head is on the chopping block and at least this way I can provide justification for a decision.

Lawyers have to justify their arguments, judges have to abide by the law and apply appropriately. Referee's are the same with football laws. They have to be in a position where they have to justify their decisions.
