Send the keeper off! (Not because it was that bad a challenge, but because they're already down Pope, them losing another goalkeeper weakens them more!)

Chelsea already had 10 points when Potter took over.

Am I missing something. Newcastle are on +15, we are on +5. They need to -10 for us to be level on GD and our 33 GS to be put us above their 32.

Makes our loss to west ham seem even worse draw to fulham not seem so bad.

And the two goals that put them 3-1 up should have been ruled out, according to an independent panel. https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/38573537/panel-says-diogo-jota-red-card-liverpool-spurs-was-incorrect

Ever since Villa avoided relegation thanks (at least in part) to failing goalline technology I have found them to be one of my least favourite sides in the premier league and it irritates and annoys me to see them succeed. Probably doesn't help that we have been so terrible against them in our...

It feels a bit weird if the VAR sees the foul by us he doesn't just stick with the onfield decisioon and let the game play on, but generally no complaints. I was just offering examples of refs not changing their mind when going to the screen, and trying to be clear about the situation becuase he...

That was marseille. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/67014105 The Tottenham one was Lamptey's goal standing, despite a clear foul by March. https://talksport.com/football/782751/tottenham-referee-brighton-goal-var-penalty/

While some may view that as a common sense approach (I wouldn't argue against it) there's no rule that says he has to play the advantage. And if you're a cynic, you might argue that it would be the way the ref would go to protect the big six side.

As well as the spurs incident (I thought it was March, not Lamptey), there was the MArseille game where the ref ruled no penalty, was sent to look at the screen and he ruled we had commited a foul before their player, so still no penalty (but did give a free kick that he hadn't before, but since...

They, like so many teams, always up their games against the big 6 (and us). They wouldn't be putting in this sort of performance if they were facing wolves or everton or the like.

If that's not a foul by Hughes, it's a handball by the liverpool player and the penalty would/should have been overturned anyway.
