I have no association at all with @CardiffCityFC but I must say they have been robbed of their Premiership status by shocking refereeing errors which have continued right up to today

I agree :thumbup:

A fair few fans from other clubs agreeing with him too. Usual babble about Warnock getting his just deserts and the one offside for us against Brighton etc, but most saying its happened far too often this season. You can understand if it was only one, two maybe even three decisions in a season (at the end of the day the refs are only human), but it seems to be happening every week to us, there were at least 3 against Chelsea alone.

The amount of penalties we should have when the game has been even has broken our season. We should be doing more to highlight what gets done to Morrison.

Wouldn't surprise me if we got some penalties in the next 2 games though.

More likely to give them away with Zaha and Martial up to their tricks!

im not sure what more can be done to highlight it. Warnock brings it to peoples attention every week and its mostly AFTER pundits have had their say and were in agreement. its been well documented everywhere hence felix the cat impersonator chipping in.,.,

Galloway is a political opportunist and proven liar, this is probably the first thing he’s ever said I agree with. Hope he dies very soon.

Surprised me this thread, when I said VAR would have found some of those decisions in our favour and we would have had more points no one agreed, yet this thread everyone agrees ????

people are agreeing we have been robbed..which we have.

It would be an interesting stat to see see how many VAR referrals ended in an overturned decision. As I suppose the ref is only told from VAR if they have spotted something... Does that put any doubt in his mind over his original decision?

I think it has to immediately put doubts in his mind even if he was 5 yards away and had a perfect view of what happened. only time will tell if its a success. but im not a fan. and so far you get arguments about the VAR decision the same as with referees decisions.

Yup. I agree. It's good for the black and white decisions like offside or even the new handball rule... Anywhere there's human judgement it could go either way (except if we're playing).

whats bothered me is FIFA stats regarding correct decisions..they say that its improved the percentage of correct decisions. but im pretty sure had there been no VAR that Fifa would have called some of the refs original decisions correct ?
plus of course the game disruptions. which im sure will increase as time goes bye
