    VAR (again)

    Listen to the section on last Saturday’s BBC Scottish Football Podcast from 52 mins 34 secs in between Kenny McIntyre and Bobby Madden regarding THAT Curtis Main penalty last season. What the actual phuck does ‘outside interference guiding the VAR’ mean when it’s at home? Corrupt as phuck.

    I always found it baffling the club didn't follow that up, maybe they did and got no response.

    Exactly. Reading between the lines, essentially some ‘third party’ would appear to have instructed the VAR Ref to corroborate the on field decision. No direction to even tell the on field Ref to review it on the monitor. Of course this begs the questions, who and why?

    Ruined the fairytale result in the FA cup semi today but worse denied Nottingham Forest potentially 4 penalties away to Everton.What made it worse was the smirking Ashley Young saying the ref got every decision right.He playing against The Rangers today would have conceded a hatrick of penalties,FACT.

    You've got to feel sorry for Coventry, denied a sensational coming from 3-0 down to winning it 4-3 & a place in the final by a baw hair. Not even by a baw hair, it was in line which goes to the attackers.

    I’m an Everton fan…..I don’t know why I’m hearing several people say 4! The Tarkowski one was never a pen in a million years!

    The 3 Ashley Young claims were all definite pens though! Forest were absolutely robbed!

    Ashley young is a garbage footballer and a little cretin too. I want that idiot out of my club!
