Re the pens, yes, we had the favour of VAR for a change, but they have to let the ref know if its a clear and obvious mistake.
Regardless of whether Oliver’s decision was right or wrong, neither could be classed as obvious mistakes by the rules of the game. How could you say Thiago got any of the ball. It might be soft, and Jesus may have bought it, but if those are the standards its not a mistake by Oliver.
I would be upset with the handball if it were the other way round, but again, the precedent is that it has to be unnatural in movement, and I think arm down is more unnatural there because he couldn’t possibly balance otherwise.
It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
The standard here at goonersweb has really gone into the toilet.
Thanks for all the good reads over the year there have been some good posters but it’s no longer worth visit. (I know someone will come afterwards and give me grief and say I was a lurker and no loss etc but wanted to say thanks to the sensible posters, MO, GP, seals sir, letters, LDG, Mac etc, who’ve made it worthwhile)

Triumvirate of twats?
Triumvirate means three, there’s only one of you
The one thing I like (or at least liked) about this place was that sensible discussion was for girly men and that this was a sanctuary for unpleasant and unnecessary abuse
No seriously though…sensible discussion has its place, but so does accusing someone you’ll never meet of being a kiddy fiddler
