No comment about the non-penalty decision. The VAR decision for West Ham's disallowed winner seemed to take an age for what appeared a straight forward decision.

Port Vale vs Accrington Incident starts @ 1min, 10secs Throw in into the penalty area, Accrington defender palms the ball onto the bar, Vale attacker follows up and puts the ball in the net from close range..... Goal disallowed, Vale unhappy, penalty awarded, defender red carded, penalty...

Good call, trailing right leg straightens and sweeps his opponent's leg on the follow through. Some of the comments on the twitter post are beyond laughable!

Granted it's as rare as rocking horse poo, but was at a Brentford vs Oxford game in the early '90s where Oxford striker John Dernin was sent for a very early bath for telling an AR to F Off over an offisde call. If only football would grow a pair and clamp down on referee abuse at the highest...

One of the users commenting online claims to have been at the game and says the referee gave no warnings it was the final kick of the game and no rebounds would be considered. Shame the video wasn't longer showing the build up and aftermath, so guess we will have to take their word for it. Some...

Doing the rounds on social media, seems to be causing a lot of debate on both sides.... Full time whistle denies rebound

Don't outfield kits take priority over keepers? Regardless of league rules, surely it's easier and common sense for a keeper to change than an entire team?

City could have played all night and still not scored, but 5 minutes added on time seemed a tad light given the number of stoppages, subs and times Tottenham kicked the ball away or prevented City from getting the dead ball during the 2nd half.

Interesting interview with Howard Webb before the Chelsea Vs Fulham game on Friday night. He was asked the question about timewasting and added on time. His response was referees are receiving extra training to recognise the signs and how to deal with it, especially kicking the ball away. Bit...

Bolton Red Card Slam dunk red card for violent conduct with Bolton's Elias Kachunga punching a Forest Green player in the stomach, however after consultation with his AR, the referee sends off Dion Charles instead. Both players protest, but the officials were having none of it. Is this...

Haven't we been down a similar ridiculous road before? Back in the day where the FA thought it was a good idea when a player went so many games without a card, so they would give a credit to remove a yellow against their name for that season. Clubs would exploit the rule and give the player a...

What was she thinking? Another day, another referee and it could be a different story. Reminds me of the video where the keeper saves the penalty, a defender runs in to bear hug his keeper for the save and the ball is squeezed out the keeper's hands and into the back of the net! :D

Got kicked in the back of the leg, went down like he had been shot in the head by a sniper, still looked more of a foul than the one that was given though!

What an absolute joke! Typical modern day football, instead of clamping down on gamesmanship and cheating etc, it introduces meaningless token "house point" gestures! :confused:

De Gea's reaction to getting his arm brushed was at best embarrassing. I probably wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes in the Premier League as I wouldn't tolerate that crap :mad:

Arteta yellow carded for his familiar touchline antics, hasn't stopped him standing well outside his technical area and on the touchline though.

The statement is poor at best, as others have said, find it hard to believe it was the referee's decision alone to play the match. Even at grassroots, there was a few occasions I felt under pressure to play a game even when I wasn't 100% certain in my own mind. Can't even begin to imagine the...

Unless an AR has x-ray vision very difficult decision for them to give, so I suspect it's highly unlikely the goal would be disallowed without VAR. Twice in the first half Robertson ran from behind Kepa and stood in front of the Chelsea keeper to prevent him from a quick release. The 2nd time...

Some idiot will be getting a knock at the door for his attempted kick at Ramsdale after full time and I suspect the clubs will be asked for their observations as a minimum.

Incredible, you couldn't make it up! :eek:
