Motherwell (a) 28/02

[geofoxposse]

He looked like a man under severe pressure on the touchline. Totally out of his depth.

Same problematic tactics every week, its insanity.
The back 3 with Iovu and KK is terrible and they arent capable of playing that system or at that level. Where is Ross Graham? or has he spoken out of turn. someone needs to....

The entire game was terrible at every level.

[Arabknight]

I heard that Graham has had words with JG. Can?t be confirmed but wld underline why our captain, although hasn?t been at his best, is now sitting in the bench.

Aside from our poor performance that is twice now we have had players go down with minimum contact, resulting in a red with Hearts and Maswanhise buying a penalty on Saturday. My issue with VAR on Saturday is ref only shown the very last part of the incident where Sevvy nudges Maswanhise in the chest and doesnt show that both of them were at it for at least 10 seconds before. The fact Maswanhise is holding a different part of the body when he is rolling on floor is proof he feigned it. I hope when Collum does his VAR review show that is brought up.

Things not likely to get any better anytime soon, we have that absolute cheating c*nt McDermid as ref tomorrow night with Beaton on VAR

If he can see past the pillar of course

[JUSTaway]

Without VAR the Motherwell player doesn't bother to throw himself down on the ground holding his nuts and screaming in agony even though he has been touched on the chest.

How do you know they only watched the last bit? Just because that?s all they showed on the bbc doesn?t mean VAR didn?t show the ref it all, the incident was discussed on Ref watch this morning by Dermot Gallagher, and he says the ref and VAR did a fantastic job spotting it, the thing you can?t go about elbowing opponents in the ribs and get away with it nowadays

Aye,especially when the pain travels all the way from his ribs to his b*llocks,or did that not get noticed? Fantastic job my arse! Ref watch? might as well be the f*cking masons!

Watched it live on DUTV. Was Dermot Gallagher shown the whole incident this morning? Did he comment on contact being on his chest but Maswanhise rolling about on the ground holding his balls?

[Yeats 62]

Strange one indeed. Not defending Vicko, but, at what point does the game move on?

If that happens at a corner or free kick, I don't think it goes to VAR.

There was no active futba happening in our box at the time, players were moving out.

So, if the same thing happens, and our keeper launches the ba' into the other teams penalty box, then kicks their forward up the erse for hassling him too closley in the last move. Is that a pen???

Genuinely don't know.

Any violent conduct in the penalty area results in a penalty kick if it's the defending team that commits the offence.

[LSArab]

Their forward should have been booked for simulation

He has also started the slight altercation

Decision was a total joke imo

VAR is ruining so many matches and it?s making old firm bias even worse as well

The VAR officials are even more biased than the refs on the pitch and they have cameras to try and help their cause 😭

[geofoxposse]

Sure, Vicko was stupid and sadly the scum on VAR will find fault every week. However if the negative tactics werent used and putting constant pressure on the back 3 then both Vickos mentality would be different and the focus would be up the park.

[BackOvTheShed]

Any violent conduct in the penalty area results in a penalty kick if it's the defending team that commits the offence.

And any violent conduct anywhere on the park results in an automatic red card.

So whats your point?
