What about the other 14 or so times over the past two seasons where PGMOL have issued apologies?? Nothing changed. Nothing will change again and the season will keep going. Regardless of your club allegiance this will keep happening to all of us. Some we will profit by and some we will feel hard done by. Sad state of the game currently.
The thing that makes this totally unacceptable for me is after the initial mistake when the VAR team think the goal has been given, which is bad enough, is the fact they say nothing to the ref when Spurs are given a free kick and are not kicking off from the centre circle.
That obviously shows the goal hadn’t been given, what were they doing? Clearly not looking at the screen. It’s embarrassingly bad.
No problem with the statements. More clubs should do this. Also glad to see they focused on the blatant error and not the controversial red cards that Jota and Jones received
This is what I wanted. Escalate this shit. Fuck the pgmol and fuck these refs. Corrupt, insecure, and utterly useless.
Im guessing the PGMOL didn’t hand over the audio and studio camera recordings like LFC wanted.
EDIT:
That such failings have already been categorised as “significant human error” is also unacceptable.
LFC are saying its BS that you have released an excuse before you have conducted an investigation.
This is just gonna piss the refs off even more resulting us getting even less decisions lol. Although watching that spurs game and the Newcastle one where joelinton was given free reign to commit as many fouls as he wanted I’m not sure that’s possible.
So why when i posted this was it deleted for having a vague title even though it was the exact same and was posted 10 minutes earlier?
This could be a win for all PL clubs
Not surprised. The idea of the VAR guys not correcting the referee when he didn’t give the goal and then just saying ‘it was a mistake’ is straight bullshit. Sounds mental but if I wanted to screw a team over by not giving a goal, this is exactly how I’d have gone about it.
How many more “significant human errors”? You should take your time to come to a concrete decision, that’s why VAR is there. Leagues can be lost due to these decisions
Ref missed one call lol.
Fair play, a very strong statement. Unacceptable doesn’t even begin to describe messing up a decision that straightforward.
As a Chelsea fan, I am still pissed Mike Dean knowingly allowed a bad call to stand because correcting his dear friend Anthony Taylor who was the referee was not something he wanted to do. MF admitted this. So I am all with Liverpool in taking this incompetent and corrupt referring out to the cleaners. Fuck Taylor and fuck Mike Dean.
In the meantime, we will explore the range of options available, given the clear need for escalation and resolution.
Fighting words lol
I think this is the most I’ve ever been behind a rival club. Please escalate this as much as you can, until they get rid of all of that corrupt old boys club 🙏
