Surfer 1,547 Posted May 29, 2022 We can live with the ref making his call, he's only human, and mistakes can be accepted. It's the VAR officials, they are there with the benefit of technology to correct mistakes. And then they make decisions like that... it's pathetic and corrupt.

canarybubbles 1,982 Posted May 29, 2022 Let's face it - VAR has done nothing to make football fairer. And considering the loss in joy when a team scores, if it can't even supply more fairness, it shouldn't exist. 5 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Real Buh 3,498 Posted May 29, 2022 Let’s face it it’s John Moss’ last game, he’s **ed up, and his mate in the VAR booth has done him a favour. closed shop boys club. Absolutely stinks. Investigation needed pronto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well b back 3,339 Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) I suppose you could argue a case for the first one not being given, but the second one, a blatant penalty was not even looked at. Get the bigger club promoted at all costs. Edited May 29, 2022 by Well b back 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canarybubbles 1,982 Posted May 29, 2022 There is no reasoning. VAR is totally random. Which is ironic, since the whole point of it was to cut out random decision-making. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Surfer 1,547 Posted May 29, 2022 (edited) Meanwhile, quite frankly neither deserve to be promoted - obviously one will - based on the appalling lack of quality on display on this game. Like I have said before I'll be stunned if we don't finish in the top six next season, or even top two given the state of the Championship.

The Real Buh 3,498 Posted May 29, 2022 Nottingham forest are more marketable you can lean on the ancient history like Leeds, gives Jamie Carragher something to talk about.

Christoph Stiepermann 1,162 Posted May 29, 2022 I think it was a simple case of it being Jon Moss' final game and the VAR officials didn't want to ruin his big day by questioning his decisions. Because that's how officials tend to think, they're just as important and famous as the football clubs and the fans and TV cameras are there to see them just as much as a game of football. It was HIS big day and they weren't about to spoil it by making him look silly because it was such an obviously poor decision, it was only a Championship game and he's PREMIER LEAGUE referee, they should be so lucky that they got to be a part of such a historic occasion as his final game. He probably thought I've played a blinder there catching that dive, one last show of how great I am before I retire. Hopefully he feels like a pillock when he watches it back. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Been a long time, even more so for a club like them that were once a pretty big club and they do have a very loyal fanbase too. 1999, twenty three years ago until now. It just seems right that a team with their history are now back at the top table where they belong. Cannot excuse the awful officiating today though.
