Wolves vs Arsenal 25.01.2025 - KO 15:00

Sounds like we've actually had to appeal the card. So PGMOL sticking to their bullshit and now I wouldn't be surprised if the card isn't even overturned. Who makes that decision? The same twats who sit in the VAR booth or somebody else with a brain and functioning eyes?

ofc we've had to appeal

and no they won't overturn it, the best we can hope for is it becomes a 1-match ban instead of a 3-match ban but given they're a bunch of c**** I don't hold out much hope

Don’t get me wrong I thought they wouldn’t either. But they have overturned it

I'm a bit surprised too.

The system works!

So the next question then.
What's the consequence for Oliver and/or the VAR people?

(Obviously I know the answer...)

[dazthegooner]

Well hopefully they'll learn from this (yeah laughing as I type).

Can't believe it - 'someone does the right thing shock'

Win/win for MLS, a let off and he didn't have to play the second half

Imagine how sick we'd be if we hadn't won anyway though

[Marc Overmars]

Looking forward to watching that shitty Howard Webb show where he runs through the VAR dodgy decisions. That’s if he has the nerve to show his face for this one.

We'd feel sick as an Asian gambling syndicate that put down a ton on a draw.

I don’t think illegal betting syndicates would last very long if they were thrown into disarray by one result that didnt go as they forecast

Plus they don’t tend to manipulate outright results, not enough money in it for them. There’s only so much you can get on odds from a result that can go only one of three ways. For instance with the Pakistani cricket team match fixing it wasn’t about throwing the match it was about No balls and wides at certain times to impact the in play betting market

So for example if there was money on Oliver producing a red card at a certain time, that would payout regardless of whether it was subsequently overturned or Arsenal won
