So, Darren England has been stood down previously for a fuck up whilst in VAR.
People make mistakes, I know I’ve made plenty, but he has the benefit of replays and time in this situation. He could even call refs to the monitors to review certain decisions. There are cunting 4+ officials to talk over the incident (although linesman would have a limited view) and some of them have the aforementioned capabilities.
That being said, after all the bullshit of this season (as well as other stuff going on in life) my patience and optimism are wearing thin. We have the most red cards this season with 4; 3 of them being bullshit.
The officiating today was once again dogshit, yet this is the “top” football league in the world.
It half makes me wonder if they purposefully use shit refs just to add to the controversy to boost viewership.
The Saliba one is bullshit too, given how many similar “DOGSO” incidents that were worse happened without a red.
Unfortunately, you can’t argue an appeal using incidents from other matches, I think. You have to argue that the ref got the individual decision wrong. That being said, the PGMOL are the police of English football. They want all the power, no accountability, no oversight, and all of the sympathy for the difficulty of their jobs.
You might not be able to argue an appeal, but you can argue outside of the PGMOL system that it’s clearly unfair. You can’t appeal the fucking double yellows either.
