What's even more frustrating is they are rarely held to task over them. I think its gone beyond traditional refereeing now Just one bloke in the middle of a crowded pitch of elite athletes trying to keep up with the pace and also having to spot everything that happens and make instant judgements seems such an outdated and ridiculous concept now Owlstalk Shop Link to post Share on other sites

Blades had a stonewall penalty ignored yesterday for example. As for handball some of the decisions are ridiculous. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Hedwig 220 Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 (edited) 3 hours ago, fredowl said: got the ball clearly but left some on the player also, in that area of the pitch there was no need to even tackle him Hate to draw comparisons with the Blunts, but that's similar to what happened in their game against Fulham., albeit there's was in the 6 yard box. Fulham Keeper got the ball left some on Bogle - pundits saying it was a pen - referee & VAR saying it wasn't even a foul... If we had VAR in the Championship, would it have over-ruled Shaw's 2nd booking ? Edited February 22 by Hedwig Link to post Share on other sites

Always looking forward. Good engine on him. And people think he’ll struggle to get in the Celtic team? They’ve had our pants down. Edited March 3 by SallyCinnamon 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Animis 5,893 Posted March 3 Share Posted March 3 had a decent game - looks a good player in the making, but sadly not with us. He spots a good pass and has strength and composure. Unfortunately, he has little to work with - decent forwards would thrive of him. Link to post Share on other sites
