FA Cup NUFC vs Villa

[PhoneymcRingRing]

I know there?s no VAR but is there a linesman?

I know there?s no VAR but is there a linesman?

And 3 of them were off.

[MidsMagpie]

And another one on Barnes.

[MidsMagpie]

Just give the referee a villa season ticket.

[Zippity]

Win percentage of 7.7% without Bruno...

That's a minging stat, mind...

[MidsMagpie]

Murphy has been anonymous again Elanga needs to come on at half time

[Zippity]

Murphy has been anonymous again Elanga needs to come on at half time

Yep. Anonymous is being kind.

[Zippity]

And now a red card challenge the Ref gives a yellow for.

This is one of the worst displays of officiating I've seen in a while.

[MidsMagpie]

Disgusting foul and of course the referee wont send a villa player off it was shocking.

[MidsMagpie]

Doing his best Quiroga impression

[MidsMagpie]

So they should now be down to 9 men

[Zippity]

That is a mental challenge by their 'keeper.

Only fucking decision the Ref has got right.

[OwdBillCook]

Jeez...
Terrible ref decisions. Except for their goalie being sent off. WTF was he thinking??

I have to say I still hate VAR
Yep, their goal should def have been offside. Yep, we should havre had a pen.

But for me these things even out over time. I may be old hat, but I like to know that a goal is a goal. I like to know that a pen is a pen. Straight away, no fvcking around for 5 mins.
Hell, you can complain that the ref was an arsehole/biased/whatever. But the spontaneity and excitement is intact.
Not wander into the kitchen, brew a cupper, and come back to see if they've decided yet.
Anyway, that's part of the experience. To shout aloud when you've scored a goal. To moan like fvck when the oppositons goal was clearly offside.
FFS, there has to be room for human error. But taking an extra 5 mins to reduce - and certainly not eliminate it is CRAP

Please stop playing Woltemade deep. He's a 9.

[toonphil]

We're playing 10 men but I don't know where a goal is coming from.
