Match Thread Crystal Palace v Everton - 1984 video, Match Report & MotM Poll

[Kevsleftpeg]

Just a yellow

 

[Miked1e]

Is it true that Pawson was the VAR official?

Yes…. It’s true

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

Not even a yellow

 

[banno]

Well... I got bored after 45mins so treacherously watched Traitors.

Did I miss anything?

Is it back on. The British version or the sceptic version?

 

[matty1878]

Crazy decision to give that but agree, it’ll not be rescinded. No chance

it will

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

No red. Might be pre VAR though?

 

[matty1878]

We had enough chances there to win that.

Irrelevant of the red card, we’re pretty shocking in front of goal.

we know it’s all we’re lacking

 

[Bwana]

Walked to the local in -25 degrees, threw some darts, watched my local ice-hockey winning & national Usomethings losing. Wearing my padded skiing trousers with suspenders and cup winners '66 long sleeved-one.

And that's as much I wanna talk about my time at the royal stables.

According the rules it was a red. Seen them not given also.

 

[Kevsleftpeg]

it will

I have come up with a compilation of tackles that are 100 times worse than the DCL one (not even a foul IMHO) in about 5 mins from recent seasons. Everton should do the same and take it to the Premier League and Sky Sports. There will be at least 30/40 examples just this season of much worse tackles not being punished with a yellow let alone a red and none of a comparable situation resulting in a red. There are some decisions that are border line and can go either way even with VAR but this is no were near close. It's just completely inexplicable.

He's not clueless, knows exactly what he's doing

I thinkbhe will be demoted after this, 1 match but he has it coming. Even Sky saying it was wrong

Yes, he defo knows his "directive" and meets it.

 

[Groucho]

So we can appeal this yeah?

 

[PITA]

Ultimately Beto didn’t go down dramatically enough. Jota would have leapt to the ground with a few rolls and got a pen.

I genuinely don’t think it’s soft like some are saying. It’s completely one way and Andersen is not at all trying to play the ball.

Just like ex-RS Clyne did after the DCL 'tackle'.

 

[Ring master]

So we can appeal this yeah?

The red card or us not having to watch the replay . But yes to the Lewin Red

 

[PITA]

I thought the Dominic Calvert-Lewin red card was the correct call, to be fair; it was a studs-up challenge that could have resulted in a serious injury. What annoyed me was the fact he didn't have to make the tackle as there was already one of our players dealing with their player. On the plus side, a three-match ban may be a blessing in disguise, as we will have to try someone and something different in the coming games.

The first definitive appearance of a 'too kool for skool' cockwomble. Congratulations.

we can but with two refs agreeing it fitted the rules for a red, why would the appeal be any different? The rules are so ambiguous you can almost 180 degree turn within them depending upon the club badge
