Yep just seen that as well

Was it given ?



Attwell was ordered to the screen then rather than being allowed to make his own mind up was told to look at the tug on Bernardos shirt lol

The inconsistency between decisions is beyond ridiculous week after week

All anyone wants is clear guidance and consistent decsions based on it, sadly not coming to a tv screen anytime soon lol
 
Back from the game and it was a great game. 2 teams trying to score for 90 plus minutes. How we managed to get nothing from it I'm not sure but a good day at Selhurst despite the result. What PV and the owners have done with our squad in such a small timescale is nothing short of brilliant. We've completely changed our style and for the better!

Bar and post were our friends

In reality that post shot was awful. Poor strike

Bar was so unlucky another inch and that's off bar and in

Plus fabainski had a great game
 
Just seen it on motd crazy how that’s not a penalty what’s going on.
Walton explained it on BT by saying VAR is not used to check very small details, such as this. Which was surprising, as I'd have thought the detail of Ederson playing the attacker's foot first was a fairly significant factor.
 
Are we really surprised Riley’s minions are defending how it’s being used?

“Ref Watch“ on Monday morning will be hilarious watching Gallagher try and explain why they got it right.

Im all for shirt pulling being clamped down on but we all know it’ll continue under the noses of refs at corners and they’ll just ignore it. That’s were the inconsistency of decisions across the league boils my piss.

Re the bold bit...They have it!
Here's the protool...https://www.theifab.com/laws/latest/video-assistant-referee-var-protocol/#procedures
The important bits re the game in question, at least in my belief, is as follows
.
.
3. The original decision given by the referee will not be changed unless the video review clearly shows that the decision was a 'clear and obvious error'.
4. Only the referee can initiate a ‘review’; the VAR (and other match officials) can only recommend a ‘review’ to the referee.
5. The final decision is always taken by the referee, either based on information from the VAR or after the referee has undertaken an ‘on-field review’ (OFR).
.
.
So, in the one case, no 'clear and obvious error'. While, in the other, there was.

And...Your first statement, italicised above, is simply wrong!

If that’s the case it seems wrong to me, it’s not a small detail to most fans.

Var is a good thing if only the people setting the parameters and the ones implementing it we’re doing a better job.

Still good seeing Arsenal loose though?

I don't contribute on here but after listening to my grandsons rant about this yesterday it seems to me the use of VAR has been botched. That in itself does not surprise me.
 
Lukaku apparently dropped for today’s game after the interview released by Sky on Thursday. Whilst the manager is free to impose whatever discipline he sees fit, it seems a strange time to do it when he has been complaining about the issues in the squad with injuries and COVID.

And nice timing by Sky, considering the interview is a few weeks old…

Maybe the Sky producer is a Liverpool fan, and the timing is deliberate. Maybe Lukaku’s agent knows the Sky producer and is pushing for a sale during the January window.
