    Nil,never better demonstrated than yesterday mate with Vertonghen pulling Matip in the penalty area at the corner and no penalty given but Vertonghen was given a warning and Benteke doing the same v Bournemouth and the penalty being given by Mike Dean.

    Nil, there always will be a grey area mate. Everyone in football judges the same incidents differently. The thing is no one two incidents are the exact same, so there is always wiggle room for refs.

    ‘…there will always be a grey area…Everyone in football judges the same incidents differently’.

    I assume this universal truth doesn’t apply to the actions of Diego Costa though right Alf?!

    Of course it applies to him – hence the different opinions being stated in the thread at the time.

    Alfie/Nine, absolutely. The only way perhaps to get these decisions more in line with correctness as we as fans see them is if there’s a secondary person sitting in a box full of television monitors who will overrule the Referees original decision on the pitch.

    The danger of that though is undermining his judgement so as previously aired on these pages, I’d go for each team to be allowed 2 calls per match where the club Captains can take it amongst themselves to challenge a contentious or dubious decision.

    Cheers

    I think we could well end up going that way tbh, just a matter of when.

    Possibly not another ref in the stands reviewing though, a pitch side tv screen that allows the match ref to review it themselves.

    Alf, just marvelling at the beautiful pragmatism coming from the lad who recently seemed unwilling to even consider that football is largely about perspectives rather than absolutes!

    And there was me thinking it was you who wouldn’t listen to anyone else’s point of view, dismissing any Utd fans opinions dues to red tinted specs or some inane nonsense regarding Mourinho, and simply being flummoxed how to respond to Liverpool or Spurs fans.

    There must be something very weird they put in the beer at Stamford Bridge! Two can’t be coincidence!?

    Alf, I guess our respective perspective is reflective! 🙂

    Can’t wait for Ash’s opinion when Fellaini let’s his elbows come out to play.

    Fuck off you sanctimonious twat. History shows us you out yourself on a pedestal and ignore your own tedious behaviour.

    Just because you disagree with someone Alfred.You don’t have to resort to using foul and abusive language like the above.

    I think you owe Nine an apology at the very least for your outbust.

    Imo.He’s one of the most level headed posters on here.Unlike some of
    the attention seeking helmets we see.

    It’s not new.I was brought up to know what’s right and wrong.

    I’m not having a go at utd fans.Only you for your outburst to 999
    Completely lowering the tone of the forum imo.

    If you can’t see it’s wrong.Your not worth engaging with imo.

    Would you say what you said to a family member,work collegue
    or friend ? If you would you need help!!

    If, as you claim, you are policing the site without bias why have you only picked me up for swearing? They have been plenty of others, including on this very thread. Many have sworn at Alex – but he is a Utd fan so you haven’t picked up on that. You appear to be a liar – were you not brought up to know that was wrong too?

    That’s the problem with the pious, being so self righteous is a difficult front to carry without your underlying issue shining through the cracks.
