Would almost certainly have been mentioned more if it had affected the result but with Liverpool still winning it's less important. If your keeper chucks one in and you win it doesn't matter as much as if he does the same and you draw or lose.

You must’ve missed it on here after Leicester away last season then 😉

Have a look at last years thread after Alison’s cock up v Leicester

Same time of the season, same result 🥳

Got to say I must have missed that. I guess it must be different then when a free transfer keeper chucks one in your own net compared to a £60+ million keeper chucking one in his own net. 👍

Am All for VAR even after yesterday, but it seems common sense ain't that common. The first penalty shout. Where was VAR, i can only assume the guy watching it must of nipped out for a pie. For me both instances came from corners. Theres a lot going off. Can understand if a ref don't see everything. But in that instance VAR should of let the ref look at a screen and let him
Make a decision. He is there to ref. Same with the handball. Theres times when its a deliberate handball and times when its not. Two players jostling for a ball and it clips his hand so its disallowed. If we had got a penalty from a handball like that i would say the games gone mad.

The matches I attend nowadays I can now attend safe in the knowledge VAR won't be spoiling my morning out... Happy days 👍...

As a (now) "armchair" fan of the prem I don't recollect there being a swell of demand from those in front of the screen... From behind most certainly... I mean, who'd wish giving pundits a greater opportunity to talk spherical objects???

For such an intelligent fella, you'd be pretty stupid to assume that.

When you have followed your local team for nearly 40 years through many highs and lows its very hard to just walk away from it no matter what it throws at you.

Now if I was hanging on to a team 100's of miles away from where I was from then it'd probably be easier to walk away.

No that’s fair enough, just don’t say football’s over for you then?

Have not seen his goals from yesterday but against Liverpool he missed good opportunities.
Let’s see if he does it against the big teams

Norwich won't really care how he does against the top teams. It's goals against the bottom half teams that are important. V good start in that regard.

I think VAR got it right in the City game !
If you watch it again the ball is deflected quite a bit and would have gone straight to the spurs player just in the box and not to Jesus.
It got it wrong for the pen, it’s still an opinion of the Video ref.

I do agree with most though the handball rule is very poor.
But rule changes create debate as in the rule changes in golf this year.

Do you enjoy acting the idiot on here every single day?

Why make the statement then? Why say that football is over for you when you’re clearly as invested as ever? It clearly doesn’t actually affect your devotion to the game and your team so hyperbolic statements like that are pointless.

Instead of trying to be a smart arse actually read what Stu wrote

Here it is - so point out where he said “over for me”


The handball rule is pathetic.

If that's a foul then the game is finished.

Imagine if that ball hits Skipp's arm before Laporte's that's a pen under these rules. Shocking.

He said the game is finished - didn’t say “it’s over for me”

Stop embarrassing yourself
