       I thought it was always the FA badge for the FA cup, with it
       being the only time it supersedes the FIFA badge but then I am
       likely to be wrong!

       Terrible decision by Taylor for second yellow and red card.
       Nothing in it.

       I don't think Taylor reffed the final well with a 2nd yellow
       given for a small challenge(arsenal player rolling around in
       agony as though its really hurt him!!!!!)Taylor was going to
       book the arsenal player for a dive this then made arsenal
       players surrounded Taylor it then made him give a 2nd yellow
       very poor but then i thought they banned this part of
       surrounding the ref due to distancing?
       if Taylor was unsure about giving 2nd yellow and being under
       pressure from arsenal players he could have got help from
       Attwell and looked at monitor?
       arsenal keeper did go outside his area and surprised it was not
       brought to var
       a poor final which arsenal won due to cheating

       Erm no we won because we were the better team, he was never
       going to book the arsenal player for diving, he booked one for
       dissent, you also can’t go to the monitor for second yellows,
       only for straight reds i believe.  Saying we won the game due to
       cheating is wrong and untrue.

       Agree the 2nd yellow was a poor decision but at no time did he
       look like he was going to book the Arsenal player. Both teams
       did their fair share of play acting, rolling about the floor,
       going down like they had been shot, it wasn't just Arsenal. Both
       teams were shameful in that respect. Would you be prepared to
       stand up in a court of law & call them cheats? If not then do
       not do so on here, it could be seen to be a libellous comment.
       VAR cannot intervene, nor can can he ask them to for a decision
       re a 2nd yellow card, only for a straight red.
       The Arsenal keeper did go out of the box, he's allowed to, as
       long as he doesn't carry the ball out with him & the replays
       clearly show that the ball did not leave the box at any point.
       It was a correct call. It is also another call that is not
       within the remit for VAR. It would not have been a red card or a
       penalty so they cannot intervene. He called it right so there
       was no need anyway.
       Arsenal won because they scored 1 more goal, no more no less.
       The red card was a wrong game changing call, in my opinion and
       probably contributed to the result as Chelsea were disadvantaged
       by being a man down. The penalty was correct, the decision to
       chalk off an Arsenal goal for offside was correct, 2 big
       decisions that were correct. Arsenals winner was a beauty of a
       goal.

       Lampard was very critical of Taylor according to sun online but
       this win might mean that abamayang stays
