Prem Refs

[Shibbywiggles]

Honestly I didn’t think any of them were pens (though I’ve seen them given because referees in this league are awfully inconsistent) and I think that without Dom and with McNeil playing further back we knew we lacked creativity/threat from open play so were told to go down easy and win free kicks and pens where possible

 

[Rita_Poon]

Are we still on some crazy run of having played the most matches without the opposition having a man sent off? West Brom in 2020 was the last time, I think, but happy to be mistaken.

Spurs at our place?

 

[Wat Tyler]

Ah Michael Oliver on VAR. The big geordie who hates Everton. Makes sense

 

[Merseyzig]

Spurs at our place?

Of course, Moura's daft tackle near the end.

Spurs at our place?

A big game changer that was losing Doucs for 3 games because of the theatrical acting by Kane .....

One of the worst refereeing displays I’ve ever seen on Sunday from Atwell - doing his very best to get us relegated.

Shocking and VAR was as bad with Oliver - organised corruption.

 

[Bebeto]

The club should ask some serious questions on those penalties shouts on Sunday to the premier league. They could have cost us 100 millions plus. This is just unacceptable and they are either incompetent and so should be replaced or they have an agenda against the team.

If VAR didn’t exist this season (based on no on field decisions being overturned) we would have:

Been 2 points better off
Still finished 17th
Only been 1 point clear of relegation instead of 2

But you know, conspiracy to relegate us and all that

Thing is there’s nobody at the club complaining except the fans. Everyone else has abandoned ship.

What a weird way of looking at it. So let's say there's a stonewall pen, its not given through VAR, or a stonewall pen is overturned by VAR, that's not included in your analysis. And its just assuming that every overturned decision is correct.

All of Salah's dives for penalties which aren't overturned are just assumed as correct in the way you have framed it.

 

[DualityNSNO]

Don’t forget about the 10 mins added time that they never, ever, ever add on for any other team ever!

Average for the prem was 98 min or something up until a few months ago so doubt that "never ever" thing to be honest lol

 

[Moomin]

Proper tin foil hat in here lately.

Premier league wants to relegate us!!!! Get a grip if you believe this tripe, we are not relevent as a top club anymore and people are believing claptrap like this than rather admit we are crap.

Why would they want to relegate us?

Exactly my point. I just find it amusing when people think VAR and refs are out to get us.

As in, the onfield decision given by the ref stands. As it was pre VAR. it’s hardly that weird of a way to look at it. As that’s how it was only 7 years ago.
