Think the logic was “if you’ve given it against him for diving you need to book him”. It wasn’t a dive, I couldn’t really see but had assumed there was some other infringement so the handball on the floor makes sense.
I'd like to see the Simms one again, anyone got a clip? I was certain at the time it should have been a penalty. I don't see how grabbing around the neck is ever a justifiable challenge.
Wright was being held for sure but it's all about action & consequence - was that sufficient reason for him to go down? Not really, no. Not sure why people think Haji should have been booked though?
A lot of misunderstanding around this. Since the introduction of headsets they are in constant communication with the referee. They don't immediately flag something as they speak to the referee first, much better that than one give one decision & one another - we've all seen how embarrassing that is.I think the issue is now the linesmen , they are certainly no longer assistant referees
2 things yesterday
1) The corner kick thing, the linesman could clearly see where the ball was in relation to the quadrant, but didnt tell the ref happened twice, the 1st one was ok, the 2nd the ref didnt go over, and was then outside
2) one of their players was given offside by the ref from 30 yards, when the linesman looking along the line didnt give it
its been the same for a long time now, they are generally very very poor
I think and fear it's going to be the future,but worse than that,a fully operational automated algorithm or something like that.I definitely think refs need help with the big decisions, although I hate the long delays you get with VAR. But better a delay than a wrong decision I guess.
There was no decision to make. Styles made it for him.Madness how he's getting credit for giving styles a second yellowthere won't be a more blatant yellow all season.
you mean apart from the nailed on red?He's hardly got a thing wrong, compared to most weeks. We've been atrocious, thats all.

It wasn't.you mean apart from the nailed on red?
He was never going to send him off. He could have done 10 more fouls and not been sent off.Fuming about the nailed on red completely changed the game allowing him to go in and score 2 setting up another. Absolute joke. Then goes on to foul Lats which at that point I thought next foul no matter how soft and he's gone but nope...
You might want to look at it again. He was knee high with ball long gone. A red every day of the week.It wasn't.
Lati did that and got a booking for saying their player should be off.We need to be streetwise. If that was Allen with the horror tackle there would be Argyle players, coaches, fans, dogs, uncles on the pitch and the player would have been rolling around for 10 minutes.
What did he sayGreat to hear Lampard having a pop at the ref. Unacceptable that it's happening every week.

What did he say
The ref’s decision was bad but he had one quick view of it. You’ve had time and still get it wrong. Explain why you think it was okIt wasn't.
3 previous games, clear penalties missed.Basically that it's a clear red and it's another bad decision.
The game turns on that decision, we couldn't contain them after he stays on.Honestly, I don't know what to say anymore. I have absolutely no faith that anything will ever change.
The guy could have been sent off twice and had no complaints about it. But no. Stays on the pitch, turns the game completely in their favour.
Of course.
Not excusing the fact we were absolutely poor, mind you.
So he just guessed and gave him a yellow?To be fair to the ref the tackle was so late he didn't actually see just how bad it was, if he can see how high the guy's foot was he would have had to have sent him off.
Probably.So he just guessed and gave him a yellow?
I went to watch a Thai 2 nd Division game in March,they have VAR in their 2 nd tier .Probably.
He knows it's a foul I'm guessing but couldn't have seen the severity because it was so late.
That is the type of thing VAR was bought in for.
Linesman was looking at it! No excuse for missing itTo be fair to the ref the tackle was so late he didn't actually see just how bad it was, if he can see how high the guy's foot was he would have had to have sent him off.
No way. Not in the home of electronic technologyI went to watch a Thai 2 nd Division game in March,they have VAR in their 2 nd tier .
as if a lino is gonna make a decision, cowards the lot of themLinesman was looking at it! No excuse for missing it
Probably.
