So there is your proof its completely rigged. You can't say onana who clatters a player on his own volition isnt a foul but say someone being PUSHED into the goalkeeper is a foul on the keeper.

Danny is spot on. It is NOT subjective like Simon argues. Decisions are clearly wrong. The clearest example that springs to mind was last season, Chelsea vs Spurs, there was a corner, and Cucurella was literally was hauled to the ground by a spurs player pulling his hair. That is NOT allowed in the sport. Spurs scored as a result of the foul not being given, and yet VAR did nothing. That is not subjective - it is simply incompetence and a wrong decision that has cost a team a result. We are in game week 2 of this season, and there are already a number of potentially game changing referee errors that are costing teams points. Wolves SHOULD have had a pen against Man U. Liverpools red card was wrong. etc This is not good enough. Simon and Jim arguing that players need to respect the refs, is a seperate issue to Refs and VAR getting the decisions correct.

[@danielhornby5581]

Murphy asking for players being given time to “get used to rules”. Why? Players have been cheating for years now with almost no comeback due to the players themselves intimidating officials, managers doing the same, fans calling refs disgraceful names, idiots on social media pillorying every refereeing mistake without the same relish shown for players diving, missing open goals etc. The players themselves need to be brought to account for a change. A simple solution would be to give players a striaght red card for obvious cheating, straight reds for diving, straight reds for talking to the officials out of turn. Consistent, long term application of a system like this would rapidly bring these players behaving themselves. Football needs a culture change and the rules makers will help this by sticking to their guns of a hard line on ref abuse and cheating.

So basically once a team goes ahead in the game, players on that team have to make sure they take every throw in within 8-10 seconds of picking the ball up or risk being booked but if a player takes 20 seconds or more if the game is level they won’t be carded. What a load of crap, since Howard Webb has come in they as the head of referees, the refs have actually become even more incompetent than before he was there!

[@JayThandi]

It's not purely about intent - a few years ago Mane sending off for high foot that collided with Ederson. Nothing malicious, but was dangerous so was a red. Mac Alister's wasn't a red card, even the FA have overturned his suspension. If refs want order back in the game they need to oversee matches with more consistency and VAR can help bring about more consistent decision making. It's incompetent because what 1 ref interprets as a red, another says yellow and another thinks 50/50 let play continue. If the rules aren't applied equally then there will always be a debate about are the refs doing their job or are they biased

A referee not in the PGMOL can't referee a game, thats a cartel.

[@stevenhaas9622]

the only thing VAR should be able to overturn is offsides. Otherwise VAR should look at every single goal, pen, and card and if there is any doubt they send the ref to to the monitor but the ref on the field then makes the decision. Now there is the sense that the VAR sending the ref to the monitor means he MUST change the call. What matters is that the major decisions are correct. Goals, pens, cards.

[@Greggers1601]

Why does it feel like Simon Jordan and Jim White are arguing a completely separate point to the one Danny Murphy is making?

[@eiler1987]

That’s how it always is on this topic. Or they go to the “var has got more calls right than they would have without var” Like we aren’t arguing that. We are arguing the fact of someone is still getting it wrong with the option of replay. If I scrapped as many parts in a week of the amount of questionable calls or flat out wrong calls they are making. I’d be looking for a new job. They are paid to get it right and they have replays. And the players miss sitters…where are they being held to account. 1 they do get held to account, you miss enough you find your way to the bench or fold. 2. Players don’t get to have the same cross/shot over and over again to try and score. It’s a 1 time in the moment. Refs get the benefit of replay sand group discussion.

Officiating in the Premier League is the worst in the top 5 leagues and it's not even close.

[@bbyshady]

I used to be a ref for over a decade, and once a month there would be a meeting w/ all the refs and we would go over situations and set standards for what we were going to call as a foul and so on for the season. That way there was a standard set and all the refs would be consistent w/ their calls. This was for youth club soccer, and I feel like we had a higher standard reffing youth games, than the EPL refs. Honestly, being a ref is hard, but it is not as hard when you have replays, and these EPL refs still can't get it right w/ the technology they have. They are either laughably incompetent or totally corrupt. Either way, everyone is fed up w/ them and they are about one bad weekend away from causing a riot with their BS. Get refs from other countries that know what they are doing, and I bet they would do the job 1000x times better than the current lot. Clear them out and see what happens.

Refs allow all this to happen they make it a hard job cause they are so bloody bad at their job they still will never get punished

[@Johno932]

Two people having a calm and rational conversation and TS call it a CLASH. Jim White constantly stirring things up like a teenager. Get him gone and let the grownups talk

[@rossdoonan6220]

Simon says they don’t want to re-ref the games. Then does he thing they should get rid of VAR??

[@jamiemann7513]

Yes simon, No simon,3 bags full simon....Even Jordan must be getting fed up with Jim Whites brown-nosing

[@kingjams]

Get rid of throw ins and introduce kick ins, players put the ball down and ground pass backwards. Simple!

[@generaldon6311]

Every bad decisions being mentioned except the one for man United against spurs. Incompetence in the media too. I can’t wait for the Saudis to take over football. The man United hate is ridiculous

[@mosesjuice2]

United got robbed of a stonewall peno and they still go on about the wolves one. This is what bruno was talking about. Instead of admitting their bias they went after him.

[@generaldon6311]

The hate for united is astonishing and it’s evident. The onana mistake was talked about for days after the incident and is still a big topic. All the pundits and ex players hate united because of our fan base and history

[@danielhornby5581]

Stonewall penalty? If you’re talking about the handball against Spurs, then no. If you’re referring to the challenge late in the game vs Tottenham, then yes I’d agree, that was another disgrace. Nothing on the level of the Wolves one though. That was one of the worst decisions ever.
