    I don't know why Inzaghi isn't linked, not just to Utd but to any of the big teams searching for a new manager. What he has achieved this year has been incredible and played some great stuff too.

    Did the ref officiate the game?

    It's literally an example of the process working, not failing. That IS the point.

    It didn't happen. They changed the official. It's actual proof that officials can be changed if stuff like this is pointed out!!! Fucking hell!!

    VAR works as a collective, the fact the "2nd bloke" didn't disagree with the 1st bloke isn't an example of them not working together, if he agrees with him what else do you want to hear from him? I don't get your example, what does it show? Because where does it end? The permutations change...

    VAR is FOUR people + a 5th Tech Video operator = It's NOT ONE person, they work together to arrive at a recommendation, you posted evidence of this process in action, therefore the fact that one of those individuals is a Luton fan has no bearing on influencing the outcome of recommending the ref...

    If you disagree with me then by all means do so but if you could possibly manage to do that without being a cunt and getting personal with me then that would be just fine. Cheers. There are FIVE people sitting in a VAR room reviewing the ref's decision together, FOUR of whom are totally focused...

    Rules Match officials: Bent, incompetent or just trying to do their best.

    Every single decision is subjective, the laws of the game are subjective. That's why there are arguments every fucking week, that's why people disagree on what is or isn't something because they are interpreted differently and also interpreted with bias by fans. It's why VAR will NEVER fix...

    What random shit am I throwing out there? Refs are selected for games based on the knowledge of whom they support, something they have to confirm at the beginning of every season. This is done to avoid conflicts of interests. There are numerous cases of officials being moved as a consequence...

    Yeah, it’s all about how much control Steidten has, Sullivan appears to have learned his lessons of selecting the players to buy but I guess we will find out in the next couple of months

    So were all of them Luton fans too? Or did Atwell drug them or did he have a sawn-off shotgun held at their heads?

    There are THREE people in the VAR room.

    I have no idea if those vetting the list included those on VAR that day or not, I can only assume not, possibly because they are on VAR and not the ref, VAR doesn't make decisions, the ref does. (how VAR is operated though is a joke).

    Mate EVERY official has to divulge who they support, the PGMOL check this against every game they assign a ref to.

    Rules Match officials: Bent, incompetent or just trying to do their best.

    Because every Ref has already declared who they support, this has been done to avoid a conflict of interest and is used every single game when allocating the ref. It is also done to avoid any conspiracy theorists making it an issue and the news being about the ref rather than the game, it...

    Rules Match officials: Bent, incompetent or just trying to do their best.

    First, it's not exactly known if the Forrest statement is the owner, Clattenburg or an intern working in the PR dept who believes in conspiracy theories. I don't believe the PGMOL have released a statement, if they have I haven't seen it. There have been two statements that I'm aware of issued...

    If Forrest (or any other Club) believes there is a conflict of interest they have the opportunity to raise it as a concern, the officials will then be swapped, this happens with other matches and has resulted in officials being moved to different games. It's really not that hard.
