I'm still amazed that havertz didn't go down when 1 on 1 so the ref would have had to send the iron hoofs player off too

Still Fuming over this.

What the Corrupt PGMOL / VARgina wants It Gets... Because they are told by their pay masters; who control the world-wide Betting Syndicates what the outcome of a game needs to be so that those Betting syndicates get the result that gives them the Biggest Profits.

So a ref will be told to look for opportunities to affect the outcome of a game and that is exactly what kavanagh did. They use a mis-interpration of the rules to achieve their aims, but after the fact it is all too late. I keep saying it and have said it since VARgina came in there needs to be an independent body who can investigate All Persons At All Levels employed or involved with The Prem, The FA and the PGMOL such as Webb. Till that happens nothing will change.

We've had sooo many bad and suspicious decisions over the last couple of years, but somehow this feels like the worst because you will NEVER see a decision like that again (for such little movement of the ball, with it happening to a 'big team', at home, in that area of the pitch & where there was a violent assault on a player)

It's dodgy as fuck :cry: The powers that be are telling the refs "We can't have The Arsenal challenging for the league" It's not just paranoia cos it's our team,it's so blatantly fucking obvious.. Newcastle and Villa away last season put a spanner in our works early in the season..the season before it was the non drawn lines v Brentford..on top of all the other stuff over the years.

These referees and the controlling hierarchy are far too incompetent to be part of some underground syndicate existing to influence results because we could’ve easily won the game after the sending off. Let’s call a spade a spade - Every team is at risk of these outrageous decisions, some more than others, and the root causes are incompetence, weak leadership and a northern contingent of officials who have an inherent bias against southern teams.

It's outrageous and all absolutely predictable. The only thing the club need to do is enquire why that didn't lead to a booking after it was such an issue for an Arsenal player only the day before. It's clear there are double standards at play and if they want to even pretend that they only apply the "letter of the law" to Arsenal players and not other clubs then they are fucking lying. This needs to be highlighted time and again and they need to be held to account for their cheating.

As always the club will bend over and take it

"Don't want to see players booked for that sort of thing."

"Ruins the game."

"Different fixtures need sensible refereeing"

"We'd end up with no players on the pitch if we booked players for that every time they dit it."

"Nothing to it"

Something happens with us and it's all

"Irresponsible"

"Referee has no choice."

"All players should know the rules by now"

It's just embarrassing how 'clear and obvious' the bias is against us. But then again 95% of the referees coming from the north, what do we expect.

Bet they won't even ask him why he didn't book Pedro or that Manure player. That's the only question that needs to be asked. "If you don't book either of those two for delaying a restart by throwing or kicking the ball away, how can you honestly justify booking Rice?" They won't though because they've been told to stop pointing out all the cheating by the Premier League because it was getting too close to the truth for their referees' liking.

I'm not defending the ref for a second, because he's a complete idiot for sending Rice off, but the real villain of the piece was Veltman. He knew exactly what he was doing by faking to kick the ball...and deliberately kicking Rice into the bargain...and making it look as though he'd missed the ball because Rice had moved it. The ref is a wanker for buying the ruse, but too few in the media are questioning Veltman's part in the whole thing.

Interestingly, when I watched it on MOTD, the commentator assumed it was Veltman that was in trouble for kicking Rice and he was totally surprised when Rice was the one carded.

Cheating from Veltman and abject refereeing from Kavanagh.

I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

No surprises that the article has been Removed / Closed on "X". So much for Musk the Reptile and his "Freedom Of Speech" policy.
