Oliver is nearly always quite decisive like that and the way he took control of it and shut down the protests straight away wasn't the sign of anything dodgy it was just good refereeing, he was being assertive and clear. It's just unfortunate he'd made the wrong decision. Wasn’t good refereeing then was it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think you're smart enough to understand the nuance I'm implying if you just stop looking for an argument for a second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The second challenge didn't meet the threshold of a red card offence in isolation so if wasn't checked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its 100% a red card. VAR needs binning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VAR needs binning If it’s given as a red then var doesn’t see it as an error. Whether you’d say it’s a 100% red is an argument whats certain is the second challenge on rice is a yellow aswell and what is nketiah doing out there?

Vacamion Posted 8 October 2023 Share Posted 8 October 2023 (edited) That first tackle the ref should have seen it and issued a red. And because he missed it VAR should have asked the ref to have a look. Edited 8 October 2023 by Vacamion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fear Of The Fox Posted 8 October 2023 Share Posted 8 October 2023 At this point I'm really getting worried we'll have to face this officiating incompetence next season. Most of these ref and VAR decisions are very suspicious. There are also some ref mistakes in Championship but what we're seeing in Premier League it's extremely worrying. It feels like there's a mafia dictating the sport, it's like a Godfather movie right now. What's going on? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
