That is soo tempting. Craig Pawson at Stockley Park, communicating with referee Michael Oliver...

There was a young man played for City
'Offside' was the call, ..that was shitty
I don't care what he did
I've got 500 quid
To say 'Onside, Goal Stands', what a pity.

Yeah, nothing controversial at all there or even up for debate. We all thought it was a penalty - albeit a stupid one to give away.

Maybe they just pulled it out to show what a marvellous job VAR is doing. :dembelelol:

It was a penalty, but what about all those other shirt pulls in the penalty area, week after week, where no action is taken? I know they happen BECAUSE I FUCKING SEE THEM ON TV!!!

The uproar is that the audio was leaked instead of that the VAR thought it should be reviewed and was too intimidated to have have the ref review a potential red card for a star player.

Sounds about right.
 
Interestingly; retrospective punishment still seems to be a thing in the WSL:

Aston Villa star handed three-match ban after referee misses violent elbow

Aston Villa drew 2-2 with Bristol City on Saturday and will now be without England striker Rachel Daly for three matches after an apparent elbow on opponent Megan Connolly - an incident missed by the match officials

.........Is it officially no longer a thing in the men's game or it just another rule or mechanism that they just get bored of and ignore to their convenience like so many of these initiatives????
 
Supposedly one of the top refs in Europe + VAR officials can't spot the blatant penalty vs Woolwich in the CL ... while an amateur ref in the lower divisions of Norway can do :cool:

Absurd straffesituasjon i norsk fotball

Få skjønte noe da dommeren pekte på straffemerket i 3. divisjonsoppgjøret mellom Byåsen og Orkla lørdag. Men da Byåsen-stopperen misforsto situasjonen, hadde ikke dommeren annet valg enn å dømme straffespark til gjestene.

It’s not that he didn’t spot it, he did, he choose not to give it.
