I was there when Les Sealey carried the ball over the line for a 1-0 win to us. Probably wasn't as far over as that one today 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HullOwlPhil Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 (edited) What is the point of VAR? Or rather, why wasn't that referred? Blatant penalty. Edited June 17, 2020 by HullOwlPhil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattitheowl Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 The one thing that has not been mentioned because of this controversy though... how sh*te was the keeper from that cross! He caught it then walked back 8 feet in to his own net! Just not bothered... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It either over rules goals because of a technical infringement 15 mins ago. Or gives a goal when a clear infringement isn't taken in to account. 1 Just not bothered...

The problem with bringing the technology in is that the officials are now too terrified to make a decision. That said, I’m still staggered they just stood there like gormless simpletons and didn’t overrule it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one thing being the best thing in the Blunts' team, something entirely different being given the number 1 shirt at Old Trafford. Just not bothered...

Thats why most of the live penalty decisions aren’t over turned. A bit like cricket - umpires call? Doesnt excuse the Hawkeye mistake mind. .

I’m still not totally convinced they even understand what they can interfere with and what they can’t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
