Worst ref performances involving Saints
Whitey Grandad replied to warsash saint's topic in The Saints
This is one of the big problems with VAR. Presumably it couldn’t or didn’t intervene because Taylor had a clear view of the Onuachu incident yet did stick its nose in because the pull on Vardy was not visible to Taylor. If Taylor had been consistent he would have considered the minor tug on Vardy to be no more consequential than the one on Onuachu. -

It wants me to sign in. No, I’m not trolling. Bertrand doesn’t have enough momentum to reach the player and stopped just before reaching him. This is a prime example of what you see on TV not representing what happens on the pitch. Neither the referee nor the Leicester players complained. -

It wasn’t a foul. So it wasn’t a red card. As I said, nobody on the pitch even blinked an eyelid at it. -
In which case they’re even more incredible than I thought.

Link? was he tripped or did he pretend to trip? Blatant effort to con.

Dean saw a foul by Bertrand that nobody in the stadium saw. Not the players, not the referee, not the fans. Bertrand went in with his leg straight but didn’t have the momentum or force to be a danger. This is a problem with VAR. someone watching on the TV can’t judge speed or intensity. Bin it. -
Unlucky to have Martin as a manager.

We would be making a change so that we won’t be pointless after them.

In my case I wasn’t amazed at all. In the football world as a whole it was nothing special.

But first they’ve got to make us worse. If it ain’t broke, break it.

I’d forgotten about it.

Indeed. Any manager who knows his onions.

His number of touches would be illegal in volleyball. -
I don’t think I could stand another year and a half of sleepwalking Russball.

Not if they don’t want to.

A 10 year plan to reach the National League?

I’ve seen it. It was a blatant dive. I’m surprised it fooled you. Fella!

Only after VAR stuck their noses in. Taylor could have looked at the monitor and maintained his original decision though. -
But I bet he could set his team up to defend a corner.

Sed cui bono?

Add in the three simultaneous substitute against Ipswich.

The backing in was deliberate and with no intention of playing the ball and in my view should have been punished by a free kick to Wolves.
