Against all reason, it does.

 

Having said that, if we do win next week, there's a high probability that the title will be decided by goal difference. We really need to give someone an absolute scudding to make up the ground, and today was the perfect opportunity.

Yes - if the refs thought they were penalties they would have given them. They didn't. Only got them due to VAR intervention. 

 

Worth noting that whilst VAR have given us our last 11 pens, we are they team who've suffered the most incorrect VAR decisions. Including a red card that was confirmed by VAR then upheld on appeal and Sterling received an additional game ban. All perfectly accidental off course.

A good win in the end even if against 10 men following a bizarre first 20 minutes when the referee seemed totally out of his depth. Presume Balogen injured why he never appeared for second half. Onwards to next Saturday. Watched them beat Hearts in Sportscene last night. They’re no world beaters but WTF was shankland doing at 2 of their goals

Wonder who the refs were when we got these VAR decisions against us & had to rely on VAR for penalties?

let me guess.. Colum ? Clancy? Robertson? Walsh? Am I close?

Four in the green pokey would have been more convincing.

The sentiment is hard to disagree with but why at the football?

Humza's nonsensical statement about our title celebration or maybe him being a yahoo?  Either way, fine by me.  

[Gonzo79 15,299]

Let me get this straight, if the referee waits for VAR to award us a penalty, he's a Tim and the Masons are on VAR but if the ref gives us a goal (ie. Dessers in the first derby match) but VAR rules it out, the Mason is on the pitch and the Tim's on VAR?
