he was clean through, no reason to go down and was clearly clipped. Rashford does that and it's a penalty

This is one issue I have with VAR.(well one problem) they only showed one angle (I don't like this with certain tackles as they can be made to look at lot worse) But form another angle looks like Casemiro knocks him down. None of their players contested it at the time.Quote:

Sadly that "clear and obvious error" malarkey was always going (intended?) to be the thin end of the wedge.

I thought he dealt with Ronaldo and Maguire quite well last season so I am a bit surprised he went public with this. I wonder if it is deliberate or was a slip of the tongue.Quote:

Was funny when their wee lad CB had to go off for Maguire that they immediately had to change tactics and just boot it up the pitch from goal kicks.Quote:

I vote the latter :-)
Jared Gillet - ****ing aussie in our league. Specialist VAR ref - ie an absolute ****. Trying to earn his money/minute of attentionQuote:

He started by saying it was a penalty and then watched it repeatedly and changed his mind. I didn't hear him give any precise explanation.Quote:

They do seem to be finding more and more ways to get things wrong. At first it was grappling with the technology, then tinkering with the rules. We've had countless examples of human error, some of which are impossible to understand. And then you have arseholes likes Dean admitting he didn't want to make life difficult for his mate.Quote:
