Why's The Ref Done That?

@Sparkyynwa @refsupportuk No, but for optics aren't good, especially when these officials are out here on X calling other referees bias such as Oliver taking work in Saudi Arabia.

@refsupportuk Are you saying here that the assistant wouldn’t have acted professionally regardless of the team he supported?

It’s interesting that one of his closet friends was a Liverpool fan and he was appointed as an assistant referee on the FA cup final with Liverpool playing in it. Apparently he didn’t say a word and let it happen. Like I have said many times, I would love to be in a studio with him live and have all of the nonsense he allowed to be discussed.

@refsupportuk He's a disgrace to refereeing. Not someone I look up to.

@SAFChighlights @JacobHorsfall_ Yes they can due to a chip in the ball. Even if we had no tech on this game, the original decision was offside

@JacobHorsfall_ I think the biggest problem is they can't possibly know the precise moment the ball is struck to make this kind of judgement at the other end.

I’ve always been on the side of “it’s not corrupt, the referees are just poor” But my god does it get hard to not think “yeah this is more than just human error”

@refsupportuk @talkSPORT He's a hypocrite. He knowingly appointed officials to clubs they supported. I've seen several people question if Keith knew about their allegiances and he blocked them

He blocked me when I pointed out how many trumped up referee organisations he had started but failed. Think it was 3, but may be wrong. “You are the ref” and “the ref on line” were two he was involved in. Both failed. I was asked to go on @talkSPORT with him and I said yes and he said no. Would love to go toe to toe with him. A total dinosaur who has a massive chip on his shoulder because the PGMOL don’t want to know him. In my opinion he makes a living from using referees so called mistakes to start ref abuse. Bring it on I say.

@LewisYNWA @ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_ Draw a horizontal line from the bottom of the armpit and you'll end up with the arm level with the armpit. It isn't the armpit you measure from, but level with it.

@why_ref @ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_ I understand stand you however the line isn't near the armpit

Burnley and Lyle Foster have genuinely been robbed, since when could your arm make you offside? #MUNBUN

@Paul1971EFC @CHRI9TIAN @Booteful_Game @TheVillaPolls Also, semi automated offsides are more accurate than drawing the lines. The kick point is measured by a chip in the ball and the cameras track the player movements extremely precisely.

@CHRI9TIAN @why_ref @Booteful_Game @TheVillaPolls If this is the best picture they had, I have absolutely no idea how they can rule it offside, at least before this VAR bollocks came in, the attacker had the benefit of doubt

🗣️VAR was meant to fix the game. Instead, it’s exposed it. Every weekend the big 6 get the breaks, while the rest are left with apologies and “human error.” This weekend was the clearest proof yet — it’s not fit for purpose, and everyone can see it. 💜Like if you agree #PremierLeague #AVFC

@CHRI9TIAN @Paul1971EFC @Booteful_Game @TheVillaPolls What are you actually talking about? So deluded. Grimsby scored a goal where the player handled it. Not disallowed. Yoro's wasn't a push. Why would they disallow a MU Pen v Burnley if they are always in favour of the Sky 6? Honestly, it's embarrassing to see fans like you

@why_ref @Paul1971EFC @Booteful_Game @TheVillaPolls Doesn't pass the eye test. Man Utd goal against Fulham. Clear push by Yoro. No Var. Fulham score a good goal against Chelsea. Var. Always in favour of the sky 6.

@danpatfraz @BurnleyOfficial @premierleague Draw a line from the parts of the arm that are important. The line is level with the armpit as per the law.

If the united shirt is over the line how is foster offside?????? @BurnleyOfficial #twitterclarets #UTC #MUNBUR MAKE IT MAKE SENSE @premierleague

@CHRI9TIAN @Paul1971EFC @Booteful_Game @TheVillaPolls Corruption but VAR recommended a review for a penalty that MU had been awarded at 0-0? Honestly, think about how ridiculous your statement is.

@Paul1971EFC @why_ref @Booteful_Game @TheVillaPolls Seems to me the number 9 shoulder is behind the defender. Corruption.

@Paul1971EFC @CHRI9TIAN @Booteful_Game @TheVillaPolls Attackers don't get benefit of the doubt before VAR. No such thing in the laws. Also, VAR didn't change the original decision. Without VAR, the original decision is offside.

@Paul1971EFC @Booteful_Game @CHRI9TIAN @TheVillaPolls It's incorrect to refer to it as a t-shirt lien and causes confusion

@why_ref @Booteful_Game @CHRI9TIAN @TheVillaPolls If they played in long sleeves, it wouldn't be a t-shirt would it? Most people refer to it as a t-shirt line so not really much need to be pedantic

@LewisYNWA @ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_ "In line with the armpit". You don't go through the armpit, you go level, otherwise shoulders wouldn't be legal to score or be onside with. It's the same line for handball.

@why_ref @ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_ That line isn't near his armpit. The line is to the shoulder

@ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_

@why_ref @jacobbuck_ The bottom of the armpit, which is NOT offside? The line goes through the Burnley attackers arm.

@LewisYNWA @ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_ The armpit is the measurement

@why_ref @ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_ Its to his shoulder

@ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_ Do you need me to draw circles at which point is being measured? It goes across from the arm to the armpit on both

@StanCollymore I've only seen one incorrect decision this weekend. King v Chelsea. What else was incorrect?

The Premier League need to get a firm grip on refereeing standards and decisions pronto, because if I'm right ( reading a lot of tweets from supporters of ALL clubs since the King decision) the concern about standards is at, if not beyond tipping point. We no longer know what is being punished and why and it's making many a game simply unwatchable. Listen to people @premierleague @FA_PGMOL, you're losing the room.

@ThurgzFTBL @jacobbuck_ The sleeve is irrelevant, it's the bottom of the armpit

I saw your tweet earlier but wasn’t watching the game live and wanted to come back on this now I’ve seen it. How they’ve come to that decision is beyond me. Is part of the UTD defenders sleeve beyond the line drawn? Standard of refereeing / VAR so far this weekend has been nothing short of embarrassing.

@rjaltmann1 @CallumCastel7 United had a penalty decision overturned at 0-0. How is that for your insane ramblings?

@CallumCastel7 Can’t have Utd out of League Cup and without a win in 3 PL matches Somehow PL have to coax them back to Europe

Fulham took the lead, had it wrongly disallowed, conceded after the 8 added mins that existed solely because of the disallowed goal, and then conceded a penalty that should never have been awarded. They’ve literally gone from winning 1-0 to losing 2-0 because of the officials

@Lea_EFC Wrong on all 3 points. Also, no penalty for the challenge on Cunha at Arsenal. VAR overturned a penalty United were awarded today. Stop with this nonsense

The PGMOL have gifted Manchester United all 4 of their Premier League points this season: ❌ Yoro pushes Bassey for Manchester United’s goal at Fulham, but VAR deems it a fair goal ❌ VAR disallows Burnley’s equaliser when the Burnley player is clearly onside ❌ VAR awards United a 97th minute penalty when the offence clearly took place outside the Burnley box The PGMOL are clearly saving Manchester United from relegation MUFC 🤝 PGMOL

They signed him. Promised him the world. Then sign a worse striker in Delap and tell him he’s done. All because in reality, they’re a puppy farm. The intention was always to sell whether the player likes it or not. They put him in a bomb squad and isolate him. Give him no choice but to move on. He sets up an escape to a top club… and then Chelsea kill the deal because Delap will be out for 6 weeks and they want Jackson to sit on their bench. This is Clearlake’s Chelsea. Can you imagine what kind of villainous scumbag an agent would have to be to advise their client to go there?
