Denvek Posted May 15, 2024 Share Posted May 15, 2024 2 hours ago, Consigliere said: Eh, I'd wager that a large number of Arsenal fans would've been cheering on City had the roles been reversed. How many United fans were there wanting to lose to Arsenal on Sunday to try and stop City winning the title? It may have been obvious we were going to lose, but I don't know anyone who was actually cheering for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was not an insignificant amount of United fans hoping for City to beat Liverpool to the title these past few years. Most United, Arsenal and Liverpool fans know that City 115 are the biggest cheaters in the history of English football so their trophies are worthless.

Spockydog Posted May 15, 2024 Share Posted May 15, 2024 Bin it for everything except the automated offside thingy. I love idea of VAR, but the PGMOL have completely and utterly fucked its implementation. I'd rather not have it at all in its current, clear and obvious, format.

ljkeane Posted May 15, 2024 Share Posted May 15, 2024 VAR controversy on cue. I know it’s Gordon so you just assume he’s dived but Amrabat has pretty clearly clipped his heels there no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teng Ai Hui Posted May 15, 2024 Share Posted May 15, 2024 IMO, a challenge system should be added to limit VAR, something similar to the NBA, pro tennis, and test cricket. But if the choice is keep it as it is or abolish it, I say abolish it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spockydog Posted May 15, 2024 Share Posted May 15, 2024 Spurs fans, instead of holding up their hands and saying, yeah we were a fucking embarrassment to the game on Tuesday night, have this to say: "the Tottenham Hotspur Supporters’ Trust (THST) have told The Athletic that they would be happy to set up a meeting with Postecoglou to explain the context around the rivalry with Arsenal and why the feelings run so deep.

Heartofice Posted May 16, 2024 Share Posted May 16, 2024 I’d rather more mistakes were made for goal decisions than the tedious 10 minute wait after every goal, to see if it was actually a goal. I’d be more than happy for it to be scrapped altogether. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted May 16, 2024 Share Posted May 16, 2024 Keep goal line technology. Bring in semi automated offsides. Scrap the rest. It's pretty obvious that referees in England are going to keep sabotaging the VAR system until it's scrapped so might as well get it over with.

Spockydog Posted May 16, 2024 Share Posted May 16, 2024 The VAR in European competitions is great, imo. Apart from some over-zealous interpretations of the handball law, it seems to work pretty well. Does its job in the background, without anything remotely approaching the level of human incompetence we see in England. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
