Premier League Refs AGAINST Liverpool and Forest!

Premier League Referrees and VAR are at it again with their recent mishaps and bad decisions in the last 2 rounds of football games. The Premier League Referees have caused a lot of controversy this season, we take a look at Nottingham Forest, Liverpool, Arsenal, Aston Villa, Bournemouth, Sheffield United and Burnley games here to see the silly decisions they've made. The refereeing controversy this season continues and has it ruined your christmas?

No sympathy for the ref or VAR man! The push on Salah was two-handed, a clear foul and a penalty. The officials chose to ignore the foul before the ball driven into the net!

[@Metallic_Hydrogen]

They'll only count something like this as a foul if the player flops to the floor and rolls over a couple of times. They've made it so that simulation is necessary, because a foul isn't a foul unless players go to extremes to show one has been committed. Similarly for penalty decisions it seems. If you just show mild acknowledgement that you know a penalty incident has occurred, the on-field ref and VAR, will ignore you NB Salah when Odegard handled to bring the ball under control. But if your entire forward line gathers around the ref instantly with outrage - which should really bring bookings for all harassing players - a decision which wasn't given, will all of a sudden be awarded in complaining players favour NB Man City at Everton on Wednesday. VAR will then support the on-field decision. In short, if you play football the right way, you get penalised, and if you're a bunch of moaning diving s you'll do very well.

Basically stronger/fair players get penalised because they stay on their feet

Great video. I didn't know Tierney was at that match as a fan when Gerrard scored kissed the camera. Klopp was shouting 'always the same' to him when he blew for no reason on the Gakpo goal. Great point about the advantage he gave up when Burnley broke too.

Honestly neither did I, was given to me by a sub, I'm thinking it might not be correct but from everything I know about Tierney, his age, his area, the size of Wigan when he was growing up (I actually grew up not too far from him and I'm a similar age), there's no chance he supported Wigan.

[@EnglishforFOOTBALLFANS]

It looks like him and he is likely a Man United fan, but it could just be a lookalike. He's made some awful decisions that can sometimes be explained but the Nunez foul vs Burnley was strange and I remember a nailed on pen on Jota vs Spurs that he decided not to give. I can't imagine many sets of fans like him.

[@jamiewalsh0611]

From 18/19 and before, I think we all thought that the referee decisions came down to mistakes. The game had progressed and was now much faster than it was before. They had experimented with additional referees, but even still, they showed time and time again Big mistakes were being made. They needed help. VAR was supposed to do away with that. It was supposed to give them time, resources, and space to OBJECTIVELY see what they were missing before. This had to be it. 2019/20. The first year. The rough edges were there for all to see. VAR was slow, cumbersome, and just seemed to get in the way a lot of the time. Fans were unhappy, but largely, it was doing pretty good. There are always going to be subjective decisions in the game, but many were being made, which seemed to be corredt where before they were weong. It annoying but we could let it slide because it's only the first season......... *4 Seasons Later* I. Am. Worried. This has gotten bad. This has gotten so bad. At the end of a game week before VAR, there would be a bad decision questioned. Maybe even 1 every second week. But now it's 3, 4, or 5 every single week. And the fact that they are so secretive and selective with their decisions especially when its the errors that are being made, they are so massive and so frequent, it has driven me to believe there is something more to it. This many referees can not make this many errors this frequently. Liverpool alone are -6 from VAR decisions already this season, and that doesn't count decisions like Luis Diaz goal, either of the 3 handballs not given against United, Arsenal, and Chelsea. If you were counting every major decision the PGMOL has had in a Liverpool game, you are easily talking about -12 NET decisions. We are only 19 games in...... And what separates Liverpool from the other teams. Well, we have a manager who has openly criticised a particular referee. An ownership that has directly challenged the PGMOL, and a city which is uniquely distinct from the rest of the country for a lot of reasons. The head of the PGMOL is Howard Webb..... need i say more about that, the two referees in charge are from Greater Manchester and have had aggregious refereeing performances against Liverpool before and something is starting to add up here. This is a very one sided analysis, i am aware of that, but Liverpool have unquestionably had the worst decisions go against them this season, but that is definitely not to say they are the only ones. One of the unforseen consequences of VAR is it has now given the PGMOL power to unequivocally decide the fate of games. Before you could have decisions go your way, but it still needed to be made quite quickly and be evident to the naked eye. Now you can have a tiny handball be the reason the play is pulled back 5 minutes and the exact same kind of handball not be given for the opposite tewm in the exact same match. Its dangerous. We need transparency. We need to hear the audio in realtime. We do need VAR, but we need it to be better.

[@thetopfootycoach]

Honestly I feel you on all that but I will say that Wolves have been done over worse this season, like a kipper. Thankfully for them they are also a good team so those dropped points haven't left them hanging in or over the relegation zone

I don't think that var is a bad idea, but I think it should be reformed. I think offsides should be checked following a goal every time. For me that was one area of the game that needed the certainty that a video replay gives. For all other potential offences, I think teams should have two 'challenges' per half, only useable by the team captain. If they challenge a refereeing decision, and it is found in their favour, then they keep their challenge. Challenge it and are found against, and they lose a challenge. Once they are gone, they are gone. The referee's on field decision is used unless a challenge is called, and var simply does not get involved unless a challenge is called. Not the perfect solution perhaps, but I think that it's time to ask if it is working properly in it's current form

[@thetopfootycoach]

I'm not a fan of the challenge system personally, I know it's used in the NFL for eg. I just think with the technology they have, the referees should just do their job better? I mean the tech is there to aid them, it's the fact they still get it wrong which is the problem

think we just want these guys to do their job, its consistently bad so far this season even though they have tech to help them!

[@markkelly9621]

I am going to be a contrarian and sort of back the referees.... To be fair to them, it is a difficult job, as we all know footballers now are cheats and will blatantly kick a ball out of touch, claim it is their throw-in, and then give a linesman a mouthful when they give it the correct way. Even pundits nowadays will praise footballers for diving or pretending to be injured, saying they are "clever". At saying that, one of the advantages of VAR is that it does show how bad referees actually are.

[@thetopfootycoach]

I think its a really difficult job, of course I've come across many awful referees at lower levels but they don't have the benefit of technology like those at the top level. Conversely I've come across some really top notch referees at lower levels, who you can tell have played the game and they manage the games well (rather than controlling the games).

[@ph8077]

No, Forest & Wolves are just random victims of the overarching incompetence of these idiots. However, Liverpool are consistently persecuted due to the power & agenda of Webb & his Manc Ref Mafia! This also explains Utd sitting in 7th only 6 pts off 4th place despite having a goal difference of -4; they should be behind Chelsea based on performances - where possible, there are 6 or 7 refs that do their best to help Utd - & similarly, Liverpool's opponents - stay in games until they are either winning or losing by a decisive margin...then they revert to refereeing the game properly & fairly. These useless & corrupt officials are a disgrace. Btw, I'm the most balanced LFC fan when it comes to criticism of players, manager & officiating decisions....unlike many of the Scouse fans such as Neil Mellor for example on LFC TV - he just comes down on Liverpool's side on absolutely every decision or issue!

Corruption Corruption Corruption

[@MrFirefox]

refs had it against united in europe and EPL last couple years its only bad VAR that goes our way sometimes (plenty of time it hasnt)

[@ph8077]

Possible in Europe....because they are UEFA officials but not in the Prem with Webb's Manc Ref Mafia that we have in England. They have to favour United subtly or it will be totally obvious so they give United the benefit of the doubt constantly until the games are no longer in the balance - whether United are winning or losing - then they'll just referee the rest of the game normally.

[@thetopfootycoach]

I think at least with Europe we kinda know the refs aren't from a certain area or support a certain club or don't support a certain club. If my brother is a Bolton fan and I'm refereeing a Bolton game, I'm going to have some bias, even if I don't actually support them.

[@shengyi1701]

PGMOL won’t last long in any South American league ….they will soon end up with no more referees as the fans and people there don’t take too kindly to dubious decisions or incompetence. Soviet leader Stalin had his way to deal with incompetence ….but I leave it to your imagination.

[@chiakum]

So true, the PGMOL is just another woke organization. Rather than getting competent people to do the job, they choose to be woke in their selection of referees both on the field and in the VAR room.

[@davidcooke1972]

Try supporting Everton before you start crying.

[@I-wrote-this-about]

What you mean " be allowed to ref in football " Stop the embarrassing shit like people aren't allowed to referee based on their skin colour. I was actually enjoying the video until you come that shit. Female refs needs to stay in the female game as well. All this political shit is ruining the game along with var

[@thetopfootycoach]

Football has always had political shit, sport has always had political shit, in fact they've always been linked, your lack of education in knowing that is no excusing for your cry baby bullshit. 'I was enjoying the video until that' if you've never been involved in football and haven't had the barriers to entry I've had, then you have no right to an opinion on this aspect.

Corruption is the ONLY answer, off shore bank account must be loaded with dirty money
