I know. It doesn't make it right though. People clambering for anything to point at and state cheating is east-end behavior. It was a yellow card all day long though.
VAR question - serious foul play
- Thread starter DKRangers
- Start date
I think that's the main issue tbh, the fact the ref didn't even deem it worthy of a yellow in real time.
Agree. Trouble is, the more you shout red for summat like that, the less seriously you'll be taken for a genuine one. If that was a red, may as well make it non-contact. Yellow at worst.
It can’t but surely a ref could after a review?

No, you can only check for violent conduct. You can upgrade a yellow or downgrade a red but if the ref gives nothing at all they can’t give a booking after a VAR review.
How did Kent get one for a dive?

When was this? If he dived for a penalty and the penalty was reviewed I believe he can be carded. However, for a foul they can’t award a yellow.
Can’t recall the game, but got a pen and rescinded on var check

Celtic haven’t had a yellow in the last three games.
And even after that he pulled a Livi players shirt as he was going past him but no second booking. Goodwin knew he got away with one ( or two ) and immediately subbed the player ( Freeman ) so they finished with 11 men on the park.
Any of our players and talked about for months with VAR being in our favour, anyone else and it's a quick comment of they got away with one there and that's the end off it. We are getting legitimate correct decisions proved by var and they are still moaning.
They didn't have any player booked last night. Foul was given with no card VAR stopped the game to check the tackle for serious foul play didn't deem it worthy of a red card and ref played on.

They have controlled the VAR agenda, they‘re morons who actually believed they’d benefit from it when anyone sane could see the beneficial refereeing applied to them particularly since the strike they caused. Now in the real world they found that VAR just applied the rules and they don’f like it so they launch this new bullsh*t that VAR is deliberately biased against them and the usual Masonic guff is put out and supported by the corrupt MSM in cold water Cuba. Pathetic the player should have been sent off.

I had high hopes that Var would change our game in that way but it hasn’t made a fucking difference

I think the other point about VAR is that its all very well pointing to the odd decision we do get but we have no idea what happens if there is a title race and the pressure is right on.
My guess is we get more of the playing dumb you see on the pitch in almost every fixture. Scottish officials were always going to have their safe way of doing things, that was never going to change.
Will we get Var decisions against Celtic ? im not so sure myself the tim centre back spends every old firm holding onto our strikers or attacking players and he knows it will never be punished.
I am not surprised Alan Muir was the ref that ignored it he blanks lots of these sort of decisions in our games when he should be booking our opponents, or maybe even 2nd yellows and red.

Its made a big difference in the tims games the teams they come up against are terrified of even tackling them. The refs and tv replays, have completely cleaned up their fixtures. The Celtic ladies team probably deal with more hard tackling and physical play. Who remembers last bad tackle on one of them ? i dont.
(i know they blanked the shocker above but that is obv cos it was by a tim not on one)
