As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
I’ve said this before but is this all a throwback to when Wenger used to constantly piss off officials every single game?
Our matches are not being refereed fairly and I’m fucking sick shit of it. Every game it’s continuous fouling without punishment and it can’t be a coincidence. FUCK OFF
Arteta needs to say something and keep saying it because it's happening every single time. Either he makes a point of it in the press or our players should be round the ref every single time asking the ref why that isn't a booking.
Leicester didn't receive even a yellow tonight absolutely horrific from the officials but then what's new
How this is allowed, I'll never know. There must have been four or five tackles from behind which had no intention to play the ball or no possibility of playing it. As far as I know, that's a red but, as always, it's not even a yellow when it against us. It's a fucking disgrace and fucking cheating and the FA and Premier League know it and allow it.
Eddie is literally millimetres away from nicking that ball and would then have a free run on goal but gets sent off for "serious foul play"! VAR and modern football in general is just a load of bollocks.
Can someone explain why a decision which the ref can see perfectly and has judged to be a yellow can be overturned to a red? Why is every booking or every tackle not looked at by the ref on the monitor? Why isn't every booking looked at again and why the fuck have they changed the rules to now tell the refs to look at the monitors. Six months ago, the VAR twat would tell the ref that the incident would stay with his judgement. Six months from now, some cúnt from the bin dippers or manure will do a fucking horrific tackle and nothing will happen.
That kick in the face by Vardy wasn't accidental. You could tell it was a sly kick the way he swung his legs around.
Incompetent officials and Vardy is an nuclear cunt!
How on earth that is not looked at by the VAR *word censored*, I do not know. I assume this is the incident Arteta is referring to in his post-match comments. That rat-faced cûnt has kicked out and nothing has happened at all. Why has it not been looked at? If you're saying that is accidental then Nketiah's is exactly the same.
Thing is if you were to show a replay of the Evans foul on Laca from the first half in super slow motion, frame by frame and freeze it just as his foot makes contact down the back of Laca’s ankle then you could easily make it look like a straight red.
Lacazette’s ankle would have bent when raked by Evans studs and would have looked really bad on a still frame image.
Now do I think for one second it was a red card? Absolutely fucking not, it was a nailed on yellow but obviously that wasn’t even issued
Sick to shit of referees officiating our matches the exact same way each week.
Eddie is literally millimetres away from nicking that ball and would then have a free run on goal but gets sent off for "serious foul play"! VAR and modern football in general is just a load of bollocks.
If it was the other way round I am sure there would not have been a red card as the Vardy kick in the face proves which was worse then Eddies.
There is something going on that teams can kick our team off the park but we end up with one of the highest numbers of a yellow and red cards in the league.
