Yes, exactly my point. Tbh I don’t think anyone has argued (afaia) that Dunk didn’t deserve a straight red for an OFFINABUS the problem with Taylor imo is, the situation shouldn’t have got to that point in the first place - Yes There is a difference between foul language and abusive...

Not sure I should be making any comment on what ‘amateur lip readers’ say he said but if true I would think that constitutes personal abusive remarks directed at the ref which is completely unacceptable imo and deserved an instant sending off. Is this a subjective thing? I happen to think...

So now it’s ‘screaming‘ fcuk off!? It was just ‘shouting’ ‘fcuk off‘ the post I was responding to. ‘Screaming’ suggests some who has completely lost control and I can’t remember the last time I heard a professional football player even shouting ‘fcuk off’ at the top of his voice directly at a...

Here’s my unprofessional take on it FWIW; There are other factors beyond individual incompetency but that has IMO more to do with VAR itself than it being circumstantial evidence of corruption. At least that is where the inquiry should begin and continue until that aspect is dealt with before...

Wasn’t Cooper’s passive aggressive rant against Taylor because Taylor initially missed there being a possibility of a penalty altogether until VAR stepped in? At least that is my understanding of events - Taylor missed the foul in open play which gave Cooper grounds to say it was a very soft...

Then we have a problem if ”oh fcuk off Ref” going to be a red card dissent - you’d end up with less than 7 players on at least one of the teams and the match would have to be abandoned. I think were are long past the time when ‘fcuk off ref’ was a straight red card offence - a yellow yes, or...

He should have been slower to show the first yellow and talk the situation down/ warn Dunk to move away from the monitor IMO - and subsuently warn him that his language is getting close to him being sent off. It seems the yellow and red were shown in very quick succession- that’s not a good...

Great - many would agree on incompetency. But you have also suggested ‘anything less’ than PGMOL lifting Dunk’s ban is admitting they are incompetent or under external influence” That’s potentially a libelous statement in law and written defamation - the fact you are saying things like this on...

But how is that ‘proof of being ‘under external influence’? You have no proof. All you have done is point out poor refereeing on the pitch vis a vis inconsistency which no one (well almost no one) here is disagreeing with. Sorry but if you keep insisting that you have proof of undue...

And yet inconsistency across the board is an issue and primarily the reason Managers like RDZ and Pep are getting so frustrated so something needs to be done - VAR was supposed to do that but at the moment, it is contributing to the overall feeling of chaos and indecision around infractions of...

I was being facetious but sure this season, there is certainly a concerted approach to ‘stamping out ref abuse’ along with time wasting etc (I hadn’t read your earlier posts btw so didn’t realise you were referring to this season specifically) but as long as it sticks to red cards for verbal...

It’s in the Sun so it must be true 🙂

That would suggest no one in the past 12 seasons has called Taylor or any other ref in the PL a ‘bald prlck’ or “fcuking bell3nd” - I find that very surprising indeed :lolol:

A little patronising, no? You are the first to respond to my post. But fair enough, the blog is wrong, I didn’t realise that at the time - I’ve only just seen the FA data - so not sure what’s been pointed out to me already’ I only just added it and was following the blog yesterday when my...

That’s what people are missing - he was shown a yellow for standing over the ref at the VAR monitor and a second in very quick succession for continuing to argue over the penalty decision- it was the second yellow offence within 12 seconds so maybe it was missed by viewers? Any videos? Can’t...
