What’s next? Anthony Taylor’s mum gonna release a statement that everyone should stop being mean to her son?
Have the referees tried doing their jobs better? The need to out source VAR to people able to use the system.
Fucking dictatorship. Can’t demand accountability or transparency from refs. Won’t punish big clubs that have breached rules and now this.
Here’s a novel idea: sort the incompetent (or bent) referees out.
Can fans organise a protest against the FA
Between this stuff and the transfer ban failure, this is def gonna be the era a documentary is made about in 20 years.
How about the FA bring some competent refs? Let us hear the refs during games and let the refs answer questions after games.
It won’t improve until every fan of every club comes together, unified in their criticism. Instead of moaning when it happens to them and laughing at others when it happens to them. It gives the PGMOL a get out of jail free card every week.
There’s no consistency in the decisions, so laughing at other teams getting shafted because of tribalism, is just as bad as it happening to your own club.
Thankfully, it’s rapidly approaching the point of screwing up enough decisions for each team that the fans are starting to become unified in their criticism.
This statement only further alienates them and their ilk.
Fuck them to the nth degree.
It wont ever improve. Why do you think we have bad refs? Because they want to be bad?
No, because no one wants to be a ref. And who’s fault is that? Ours.
The fuck?! So incompetent refs are allowed to be above criticism ?
No, but live TV isn’t the place for it.
Where is the place for it then ? Clearly you can’t leave the tribalism alone for 2 seconds and concentrate on an issue that affects every team in the league. The FA cracking down on what managers say does absolutely nothing to solve the issue.
Clubs should send fines to the FA after shit refereeing
Punishments for verbal criticism of the status quo. The prime trait of dictatorship.
Every PL coach should do everything they can to get a touchline ban this week.
So if I’m player that is playing like shit instead of train and get better my club should punish the fans for calling me shit? Is that similar logic?
Why don’t the FA get tough on the shitness of referees as well? Then there’d be less criticism, no?
