Dean Smith

[LANOIS]

No it doesn't. That's 2 layers of technology that is supposed to ensure the correct decision is made.

Both failed.

You read it again.

Goal line technology, the linesman and VAR.

Effectively that’s ‘3 layers of technology’

All 3 got it wrong so tell me again, how is it Dean Smiths fault

 

[oohaah]

Ahh, a difference of opinion and this comes out.

Tell you what I’ll just leave the board mate, even on a football forum I’m not allowed an opinion.

I don’t want you to go away, just be honest about your allegiances. It’s fine, we’re all lovely on here.

I'm done. You really can't educate pork.

When I first joined I posted my season ticket details so I don’t know what more you need?

I don’t agree that it’s Dean Smiths fault and then you accuse me of being a pig, thanks.

 

[LANOIS]

Or you can’t think of an educated response.

Time for bed kid.

The Villa keeper was so far over the line with the ball I thought he was a Villa fan who’d sneaked in at the Holte End and sat on the front row. Why does shit like this always happen to us? Why God, why??????????

 

[derfblade.3]

Don't think you can compare the Leeds game with tonights. Leeds cheated by doing the wrong thing. Villa did nothing wrong tonight.

 

[Hodgesleftpeg]

Everything to do with VAR, it was brought in to protect refs from thier mistakes, and wasn't used tonight. Sue the people who run the system..

We (that go to games) have seen the ref get the message in the earpiece, make the TV sign and stop the game, not tonight tho.. To say it's nowt to do with VAR, you haven't been watching have you..

It’s nothing to do with VAR, it’s a separate thing altogether...
No, not watched it, don’t know what I’m talking about

Deary me. You lost every round.

Night.

Of course I did, that’s shown in the reactions.

Night love.

They had the right to over-rule the decision!

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

How does DS know, He is 80 yards away in the stands and according to Hawkeye the cameras could not be sure so how can DS know stood in the stand?
He probably found out at HT from his players, no problem with him.

So he found out at half time and decided not to do the right thing. Again no problem if that’s how they want to play the game, but he has responsibility of how that is viewed and we all know why he made that decsion. This is of course made worse by the way he was only too happy to take advantage when the boot was on the other foot vs Leeds.

Surely nobody actually expects the manager to allow the opposition to score because technology has fucked up?

Do you want Egan to pick it up in the 18 yard box the next time he commits a foul in the box that isn’t given as a pen?

Bloody fuckin ell

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

The excuse from Hawkeye is a proper joke. Too many players crowding the 7 angles they've got...

Clearly they don't use the other 18 that sky showed.....

I'm still fuming.

 

[Chabuddy G]

Bloody fuckin ell

It’s right, it’s the ref and technologies fault

It's right there are too many bacon sarnies on here tonight

 

[Flatulent_Bob]

Give your head a wobble.

Stop trying to talk like an teenager.

WHY WOULD THEY??!!!

Get real pal.

Sportsmanship, Integrity, doing the right thing?
Not something I guess you’ve seen over the other side of the city.

But of a difference there. VAR would give the pen. For the ref or the officials to say the tech didn't work at the time (allegedly the goal was given on his watch at half time) is different.

Don't make excuses. We were robbed pure and simple

 

[Eddiecolquhounsleg]

Don't be silly, Oliver can only work with the tools he's given. The bloke was put in a no win situation.

The tools in question being the numpties at Stockley Park and the registered blind who operate Hawkeye.

Touché

Of course we were robbed, who’s saying otherwise? but to suggest their manager should let us walk it in is barmy. Wilder wouldn’t have.

 

[LANOIS]

Bloody fuckin ell

Another one who’s wrong perhaps?

 

[originaltrueblade]

I'd love to hear him explain the difference between why Leeds had to give Villa that goal back last season and why the same shouldn't have been applied here. Michael Oliver has been reported as saying that his watch buzzed him to give the goal during the half time interval, so what's their excuse for not showing the same sportsmanship that they demanded from Leeds?

Because he’s a twat

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

VAR was allowed to over-rule it which is officiated by real referees in Stockley Park, they didn’t therefore it’s a refereeing error.

Was VAR working tonight? Villa should have had a blatant penalty IMO.

I thought he was looking for it personally. You could see Michael Oliver point to his ear and indicate the 3 people in Stockley Park thought it wasn’t worth reviewing.

Why, is that a membership requirement? I certainly didn’t post my season ticket details when i joined, maybe it’s changed recently.

You are definitely right that it isn’t Dean Smith’s fault, the technology is there to resolve this kind of crap although any ref worth his wage would see that goal every time. See you for the next game on Sunday.
