Same place you are when we get dubious decisions in our favour.

I'm the first to agree when we get decisions in our favour which is a very rare sighting indeed.

WHERE ARE YOU NOW, @BluesMadLad!? 

Still here just in complete shock at what just happend. Once full time whistle is blown that should be the end of the game!!! Where does this end 2 3 4 days later when they realised VAR messed up, fucking ridiculous

VAR did not fuck it up. It's in the rules. See above.

Agree, Where did the 7min comes from? Why did Brighton not get their deserved pen? Why did udt get a pen after the final whistle? This is proper corruption, this is how you can sway a certain result....its right there looking at us.

It's mega annoying.

 

But their pen wasn't a pen. And Uniteds one was a pen. I assumed when the final whistle is blown then you can't change anything but apparently you can, based on the research I just did.

 

The only dodgy thing is maybe the additional time.

 

But it's not corrupt as annoying as it is

Its a BS rule and we all know it....like many many other rules. They are set in to control the outcome if need be. This is not footy anymore ffs.

Sorry mate but we have seen too many BS so called mistakes to keep taking it for granted. It does not add up simple as. And shouldnt matic have had red card too?

What is the time line after a games finished u can restart the game? Because VAR have disallowed a few goals that should be goals, so ooo.... where is the consistency those results should now be changed really?

And guess also now you can check it to make sure the decision is the right one.

Still...how many times did Brighton hit the post?!

So we call the final whistle now "the not quite over whistle"

We once scored what turned out to be a title winning goal at Old Trafford from an offside that should have been spotted from Sydney. That's before I mention in the reverse fixture that season our winner came from a debatable free kick. Also the following season we were dragged into a title race by two goals that should have been chalked off Vs Spurs.

Every single fanbase think there's a conspiracy against their team and that teams "play like Brazil" against them while rolling over for their rivals.

The reffing is shit, not corrupt and certainly not in favour of certain teams.

Manure last year set an EPL record for most pens given to them

every game, or damn near every game there are outrageous calls in their favour, not just pens

look at this for a textbook game

clear pen on maguire

nothing

clear martial header for a corner

goalkick

game outrageously extended almost 2 minutes extra

double final whistle with the pen after the first one

etc etc etc

Bruno red card fouled Azpi (I think it was Azpi), jumped up, came down viscously on his leg with his cleats

then Bruno dived n the box, rolled around

pen to manure

and there are dozens of other examples in just the last 14 months

Sadly the game is going in the wrong direction 4 me 

[Special Juan 27,542]

The game was fucked when VAR was brought in, it's lost nearly all of it's appeal and excitement and what it's all about.

Well obviously once the check is complete.

VAR is dog shit absolutely.

But that was a pen and if that was us we would all be going mad that it was a pen. What the fuck is maupay doing.

So should this be able to happen then, team scores VAR rule of side, but its clearly a wrong VAR decision we have seen it before. Does that mean at the end of the game they can re check there fuck up and give a goal?
