v Seagulls 7pm

[Hesperus]

Yep. Clear penalty from the
replays The only reason not to give the penalty is incompetence or corruption.

A disgrace. The foul on Gundog was far worse than Stones tackle a couple of weeks ago. How the penalty wasn't given heaven alone knows. The worst referee for a long time. The commentators made little comment of 10 v 11 for 80 mins, preferring to big up Brighton.

Was almost silence when Phil scored as if it was a shit goal.2 mins later the the bloke on BT is delirious when they score.

If you think that refereeing was harsh against us wait until the CL final

[Stephen Paul]

Wonder what Pep sees in Garcia that we don't

[Stephen Paul]

Stuart Attwell has been removed from the Premier league last day fixtures

Wonder why ffs

[gavin]

If that is because of his performance last night then that is a big step forward. It is about time refs were held accountable for their shit performances. Especially with regards to protecting players.

Finally got around to watching a replay of this game...

Quite convinced this game was bent. Unfathomable refereeing / VAR decisions, which only make sense if there was a betting fix on. Disgusting.

The referees lack of accountability is a disaster waiting to happen. Sooner or later a referee will be corrupted by the lack of transparency and accountability and that game was a prime example of how a referee can change the outcome. Dodgy decisions, favouring one team and not protecting the other teams players. Also, I have long thought the injury time added to games has been manipulated by some referees, they add longer if a team they don't want to win or has irritated them is threatened by it.

With Stuart Attwell sadly i think it is not corruption just incredible incompetence, and having said that I would be more impressed if Jon Moss the VAR official was suspended also. Not for a game day for a month with mandatory review thereafter for improved competency.
