Match Thread Aston Villa v. Sheffield United - 17th June 2020

[Finn Keane o' Balmaqueen]

Easy solution.
Give United the ball at the kick off.
Let Norwood walk it in.
Goal.
Then resume.
0-1.

Let’s see how much Villa like fair play now the boot is on the other foot.

VAR have lost their bottle again....

Wankers.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Season defining? Oliver clearly thinks the technology is foolproof and therefore no VAR intervention. Or he doesn’t know the rules.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Why did they not show the goal line tech......................cos it was'nt working.

 

[Jonboy60]

The ref should be refereeing, the linesman should linesmaning. No var, no Hawkeye. No goal because of a Fukin
watch

 

[bromtom]

The system is NOW working

Great, thanks a lot.

Give us that fucking goal then.

 

[YES Blade]

Fucking embarrassing!

 

[Sean Thornton]

It’s okay. It’s working now. Problem over.

 

[nickwr37]

Forensics will prove the watch battery faulty. Sky 'is now working' just confirmed. 'Is' so it wasn't' then? COYRAWW!

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Remember when Leeds gave Villa a goal which saw Villa on their way to promotion.

Interesting set of morals that Dean Smith has today isn't it...

Shithouse. Massively gone down in my estimation. Should have given us a goal at the beginning of the 2nd half.

 

[Davalon]

In a game with goal line technology and VAR there is absolutely zero acceptable explanation for that.

Not only clearly over the line from a technology point of view but science tells you that to end up in the side netting the other side of the post means it had to have crossed the line.

I've seen worse decisions without technology but with it that's as bad as it gets.

How must the teams near the bottom feel at this moment let alone us.

 

[DaleHillBlade]

To be fair to Sky, they’ve been quite explicit about the injustice.

How can that not be a goal,its behind the fucking post.

 

[hull-Blade]

Var n goal line technology are still in lockdown . Total bollocks

 

[DaleHillBlade]

How can that not be a goal,its behind the fucking post.

Relax, seems they plugged it in at half time.

I’ve never been a fan of VAR and tech at football. But if we have to have it, then fuck me it ought to work.

 

[Trigger Blade]

Apparently Oliver’s watch buzzed goal at HT!

That makes me feel a lot better

 

[BobblesBlade]

Why don’t villa just let us score ey?

 

[Aston max]

Fax machine not working at stockly park

 

[Rochdaleblade]

Apparently the referees watch just buzzed and awarded a goal at half time according to sky

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Really hope Wilder calls out Dean Smith post match.

 

[Finn Keane o' Balmaqueen]

Were the linesman's eyes NOT WORKING?

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

'Goal line technology wasn't working'

Sound

Absolute fuckin joke

Just had a Leeds fan text me something along those lines, never happening

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

Why didn't VAR overrule it?

 

[DaleHillBlade]

Why didn't VAR overrule it?

Too busy reading Man U forums?

 

[Eza Blade]

The only positive to this is the reemergence of 40 VAR threads
Still one of shittest decisions all season

 

[sufcboy95]

Only one winner in this and it isn’t us
