VAR check on David Coote.  I think that this could be compared to a point I made quite stridently about the absolute stupidity of allowing yourself to be filmed, whilst doing/saying things that will come back to bite you. Yet another example of someones weapon of choice being a camera. And I dont think much of his mate who chose to release it either. A wise man once said, "the less people that you trust, the less chance there is of you being sh@t on" |
Pronoun "bloke".

Now outed himself as one of those 'bitchy gays'. Sun exclusive. Pathetic response to being caught out. His sexuality (which I doubt that anybody cares about), in no way contributed to his previous actions. Stop your sobbing Davy boy, its game over. |

Yeah, I would imagine the LGBT+ community are disowning him as we speak! Worse still to go to the press (wonder if there was £ involved?) whilst he is still under investigation. There were more genuine tears on the Traitors. It goes to show that whatever your colour, gender and sexual orientation, you can still be a bit of a ****. Just take your punishment and move on. |

Been a bit quiet on the VAR thread.
Man Utd are clearly 'friends' of the system. First they benefitted from not having it in the cup, then on Saturday they escaped a likely late defeat.
A cop out (or mistake) to not show the other angle. Despite Young going down as though a sniper had shot him (in which case why no second yellow?), there was a clear shirt pull from de Ligt. The decision was over turned because it was shown that McGuire didn't foul him, which the ref gave the original decision for. It is no justification that he thought another player fouled him, or didn't see that actual offence. Otherwise VAR couldn't be used (for example) if a ref incorrectly identified a player in any situation, which has happened.
VAR should have either kept out of it, or shown the other angle. I am pretty confident the ref would have continued with the penalty with the full picture.
Gallagher saw it like this and I rarely disagree with his view on things.
I'm sure we don't see as much controversy in other sports using multiple replays. Maybe we do but they are not as high profile.
As it is...United are still ****.

In other sports VAR isn't used as a someones personal opinion so it works better
Ie cricket is someone is either out or not where as a foul is subjective and down to a individual so works better in other sports

Although interestingly (maybe!) the umpires decision still makes a difference. Hawkeye can have the ball hitting the wicket in exactly the same place for two different balls but one could be out and one not out depending on the original umpire call. |

I find that pathetic and it needs to be changed. If the review is going to be used the umpires decision is irrelevant. Mind you they shouldn't be called umpires any more, they should be called referrers as you never see one make a decision on a stumping, run out or the ball carrying for a catch these days. What ever happened to "if in doubt, not out"? |
