Premier League 2019-2020 we’re off

Jeez, Slime, if those incidents had involved Salah you'd be singing a different song too 😉

Jeez, Stu, I wouldn't be singing a song, I'd be too busy laughing.
I'd still admit the decisions were wrong, though.

Hahahaha. Mike Dean is a tosser, and VAR is a joke if it doesn't give that. Never a more stonewall penalty in the history of the game, he's absolutely wiped Kane out when he was about to score. That is beyond a joke. What's VAR for if it doesn't give that? Just get rid of it.

😂😂

Thought you were a fan of VAR ? And it was all about patience and waiting for it to be ironed out etc etc etc

I posted in the VAR thread as well. I've been trying to look at the positives and give it time, since I think it's here to stay regardless, but it's clearly being run by absolute morons at the minute. They're completely wasting a valuable tool and making the game look stupid.

It was Eagles yesterday and Magpies today, a great weekend for our feathered friends 👏👏😂😂

I haven't seen the game, but are you referring to 1:47-2:10 in this video?

........................... and guess what? The Swans also won today!

I actually don't think that's a penalty.
In order to fall over the defender, Kane had to move away from the ball.
Just my opinion, obviously.

Yeah of course.

He's just holding off the defender, that's normal forward play, then said defender collapses and wipes his legs away!

Any gamblers out there? What would a Toon and England win have been this morning?

England win traded as big as 30/1 on Betfair when we went 9 down, was barely bigger than 2/1 this morning before Root was out

Newcastle were about a 14/1 shot with the bookies but may have been a bit bigger on the exchanges

So both this morning wouldve paid just under 50/1

Honestly, I'm struggling to see where his legs are wiped away, there is minimal contact if any.... I see no reason for the defender to do what he did and it looks amazingly clumsy, but I equally see no reason that Kane took a side "dive" on top of him... Apart from the fact that he was hoping for the penalty to be given.

IMO I think var got that one correct. But I understand you feel complete opposite.

Best VAR decision of the weekend 😜

You have to console yourself that it will level itself out at the end of the season 😖 was sent a lovely photo last week of the VAR panel. They were all jewish. It made me chuckle. I would of posted it but laughing about the game is apparently not on.

I mean, I can't believe any human being could watch that and not see Kane absolutely wiped out by the defender that goes flying under him.. but ok.
