What about the other 14 or so times over the past two seasons where PGMOL have issued apologies?? Nothing changed. Nothing will change again and the season will keep going. Regardless of your club allegiance this will keep happening to all of us. Some we will profit by and some we will feel hard done by. Sad state of the game currently.
The thing that makes this totally unacceptable for me is after the initial mistake when the VAR team think the goal has been given, which is bad enough, is the fact they say nothing to the ref when Spurs are given a free kick and are not kicking off from the centre circle.
That obviously shows the goal hadn’t been given, what were they doing? Clearly not looking at the screen. It’s embarrassingly bad.
Howard Webb is going to have to be in the VAR rooms every game lmao.
Nice try Liverpool.
Official Statement Score Card Man Utd - 10+ Liverpool - 1
Glory Glory Man Utd
Wolves been getting fucked over for years, and nothing. All of a sudden it hits Liverpool and serious changes need to be made? Ok pals…
Yay maybe this will finally be the start of the EPL doing something about its disgraceful refereeing
Why are rival fans complaining as if asking for transparency and reviews after massive mistakes isn’t something the league as a whole would benefit from?
That’s not what Spurs fans are mocking.
We’re mocking the fact that scousers pretend like they’re the only one who has ever been egregiously injured by shit decisions and are entitled to unprecedented remedies that noone else has ever got
At this point, what’s the real point in continuing with VAR at all? Before it’s inclusion in the game, we could yell at the screen, point at the replays and complain that your team got short-changed because an official made a mistake. Now, WITH VAR we’re doing the exact same thing, but with more stoppages
Isn’t it just truly beautiful how every football fan can put aside any rivalries and collectively hate the PGMOL
As a Chelsea fan, I am still pissed Mike Dean knowingly allowed a bad call to stand because correcting his dear friend Anthony Taylor who was the referee was not something he wanted to do. MF admitted this. So I am all with Liverpool in taking this incompetent and corrupt referring out to the cleaners. Fuck Taylor and fuck Mike Dean.
all teams should support this.
Im guessing the PGMOL didn’t hand over the audio and studio camera recordings like LFC wanted.
EDIT:
That such failings have already been categorised as “significant human error” is also unacceptable.
LFC are saying its BS that you have released an excuse before you have conducted an investigation.
This is just gonna piss the refs off even more resulting us getting even less decisions lol. Although watching that spurs game and the Newcastle one where joelinton was given free reign to commit as many fouls as he wanted I’m not sure that’s possible.
So why when i posted this was it deleted for having a vague title even though it was the exact same and was posted 10 minutes earlier?
Fair play, a very strong statement. Unacceptable doesn’t even begin to describe messing up a decision that straightforward.
This could be a win for all PL clubs
