Same ref: "Gillet, the worst a man can get!"
Such an awful call, and it really reveals the horrible state Arteta-ball has caught the rules in.
So much turns on the decision on the field, but it's so difficult to get the calls right in real time in a scrum like that.
They've got to just ban attacking players from the six yard box from corners until the ball is kicked.
It's also kind of grimly funny that in a four-man coming together, the only player who isn't trying to gain an unfair advantage there is Romero. Fernandes is wrestling VDV, VDV is pushing KWP, KWP is diving while dragging Romero with him, and Romero just minds his own business and scores.
The question is, why - in that instance - isn't it a penalty when the defender is cosplaying as Mickys backpack?
The standard of reffing is through the floor. Every single thing they said var wouldn't do they do. Almost everything is subjective in football, and they're trying to eliminate that when it's impossible.
The refs now rely on var to bail them out too much, which it doesn't always do because it wants to support the ref, so it's just supporting wank decisions week in week out. What's a 'clear and obvious error' for fuck sake. It's just a made up term that they can't define, so again it's just subjective and down to whoever is on the var that day. It's really fucked football, the implementation of it is appalling.

Sure. But it wouldn't be good for football to have nine million of those given either.
Shoving matches from corners are not football, cannot be adequately and consistently refereed, and the game just has to work its way out of those situations dominating the game.
It was a clear penalty just a few seasons ago. Unsurprisingly, Mikel Pulis's tactics have normalised into the refereeing standard.
Pure corruption... and the VAR, selectively chose to ignore all the angles on the push on VdV.
And the BBC, showed none of the Angles that showed VdV being pushed either.

WTF is this bollox?
The ref disallowed the goal, for VdV being pushed into the WestHam Player... It was a fucking goal and VAR had the time and blatant angles to show what happened, and it should never had been ruled off.
And I am sorry, if 99% of lesser leagues can get their VAR calls right, then the fucking richest league in the world can and be consistent.
Can someone answer a question .
How many actual PL referees are there ? and also how many refs are used in the VAR room ? as in is there a team 5/10/15 etc that are used throughout a season .

The slow mo’s completely change the context of the decision too. It’s just not fit for purpose (improved decision making in general), and takes more than it gives. It was meant for completely obvious howlers, of which you might get 5 per season in the PL but it’s being used to dissect x1000 as many minor decisions and it’s no more accurate on those than a ref in real time (perhaps marginally better)
Think about 25 refs
It’s shit and equally hated in other leagues too
Go back and look at the graphs showing factual stats that we're way out on our own. It's not even close.
BBC didn't show the Andre studs up red card tackle on Bissouma at all on MOTD the other week.
Not even in the highlights. Just chose to ignore it ever happened
Opening up a new major to contract on the championship tv rights?
Bribery?
Yeah the game is properly cooked and you’ve summarised why perfectly there. It’s getting worse every season and more clear either it is being used in some ways to manipulate results or that the system is so broken. From day one I’ve said VAR should be administered by an external body and it looks more correct by the week. I’m so desperate to get away from it I’m willing to drop out of the decision. It’s ludicrous.
It’s bullshit. Who tf fills out those polls who isn’t biased? Do they pay an independent body of foreign supporters? Nope. Just plucking it out of theirmarse. There was a different list a few months ago which had totally different results. Although Romero was a twat in both.
Wow, forgot about this. Outrageous. What's the infringement honestly? Spammers players were the first in trying to grapple Romero and VdV down. Jesus...
Didn't we win 3-0 with them having a player sent off?
