For me the fact that VAR allowed the Newcastle equaliser today is a damning indictment of how corrupt the Premier League has become.
When VAR was in it's pomp there was a period where any handball in the penalty area led to a penalty being awarded. It mattered not one bit where your fucking hands were. Up your arse, 'natural position', un-natural position; it didn't matter. Consistency was the desired outcome and penalties were awarded.
Gary Gobshite & Spit were not happy about penalties being awarded at Old Trafford & Anfield so they lobbied for the pitchside monitor 'to put it back in the referee's hands'.
They got their way.
This was when the 'natural' and 'un-natural' hand position became a 'thing'.
Now it seems that handball is no longer handball when your hands are in a so called 'natural' position.
It doesn't matter if the handball prevents the pass reaching it's intended destination but diverts the ball into a goalscoring assist.
What absolute fucking bullshit bollocks is this?
The game is football and handling the ball is not allowed.
If it was deemed deliberate it is a mandatory booking.
I have concluded after todays debacle that Spurs are being treated with contempt by the majority of referees in all our home games. I could have forgiven Ange for telling the players to walk off the pitch today.
Joelinton went on to plough through Porro, despite having no chance of winning the ball, and deliberately attempted to give Porro a dead leg. The ball had to be put out of play so Porro could sort himself out. It was a stonewall booking but no card was produced.
Not long after this Bergvall was deliberately elbowed in the face by Joelinton. Again a stonewall booking which should have been Joelinton's second yellow of the day and therefore should have led to a red card being issued.
The Premier League is fucking corrupt and VAR has been deliberately misused to enable the crooks running the game to cheat.
