[Albion] Lee Mason at it again

BBassic · Jan 21, 2023

If that isn't a penalty then half the challenges in every game, in every league, in every country week-in and week-out aren't fouls.

It's a staggeringly poor decision. Inept doesn't cover it.

And we won't hear another word about it because the half-wits they've got reffing these games aren't held accountable.

To echo something similar Conte said earlier this week - the refs should be interviewed and made to answer questions on their performance.

At the time of writing 4 people have said no, I’m a bit worried about them

One minute 30.

Heck of a header for equaliser and Mitoma is ridiculous.

Nailed on pen FFS

Lee Mason has always been a useless tosser, enough said.

100 % this. Ex players (and current players) tend to be completely ignorant about the game. They add nothing to commentary.

Murray was very even handed today, unusual as an ex player commentating I accept. In fact it was so even handed it annoyed me :smile:

Wrong thread

It was a blatant penalty. Everyone in the BT studio said the same apart from former ref Peter Walton. He said it was a foul but not a clear enough error for VAR to intervene. BS. He was screamed at for about 5 minutes . Referees are a strange breed. Will be interested to see what Dermot Gallagher has to say about it on Monday.

First of all: I think the ref was excellent tonight, best performer on the pitch. Should get mentioned.

That VAR call however... don't understand it. Clear penalty unless I'm missing something in the relation between playing the advantage and VAR calls.

First of all it was this afternoon

Walton is a waste of everything

There is a problem in the rules in that playing advantage is not compatible with VAR only overruling for a clear and obvious error.

But if that was the case, then VAR wouldn't have even checked.

Looked two scared to make a decision any decision. Vardy was fouling whenever he felt like it that was why Gross was going bat shit at him when he got subbed.

Of course he wasn't perfect - Brighton didnt win the game...

As soon as I saw Lee Mason on VAR I was concerned. He was removed from his position as an on field referee because he is incompetent so why put him on VAR?

It shows how useless a ref he is.
What chance is there of him getting it right when he was on the pitch and having one look at it when he still gets it wrong despite having the luxury of replays, slow-mo, and several camera angles on an incident

Weststander · Jan 21, 2023

If that was Goofy Bruno Fernandes, 100% it would’ve been given.

‘Teams like Brighton’ require a player to scythed in half to get the decision.

No one else would have received an instant text to confirm the kit was Crimson though. Games gawn

Mason is corrupt, retarded or, probably, both.

He just makes up the rules as he goes along.

My grandson does that too. And he's 9.

Whatever he says, you can pretty much guarantee that it won't be, "That was a complete **** up - I don't know what game they were watching. Totally baffling decision".
He's an ex-referee, it just isn't in his nature.

Walton said it was a foul, but not clear enough.
So if its a foul and not given thsts clear enough.
