       The handball penalty appeal should be a clear hand ball but the
       rule is terrible and they got it right no penalty

       He's been chucked under the bus by John Brooks on VAR.  The
       handling by a Villa player was almost identical to what Ashley
       Barnes was penalised for at Spurs, yet an entirely different
       outcome.  And I think he should have been given the option to
       have another look at the red card challenge by Lowton, it was
       very low and the trailing leg took out the opponent.

       I didn't see all the game but I thought the red card for the
       Burnley player near the end of the game was harsh. Contact
       looked low on the Villa player's foot and I'm not sure it ticked
       the box for endangering an opponent with excessive force.  There
       have been a lot worse challenges this season imo that have only
       been sanctioned with a YC. VAR seem to take a long time before
       deciding there wasn't enough evidence to advise an OFR but it
       perhaps indicated he wasn't convinced.
       The VAR review for a possible Burnley penalty for handball again
       took time and I was thinking it could be an OFR for that
       incident as well.

       You may think I’m being harsh, but to me VAR is a long way off
       being the genuine finished article , rather worrying that the
       current SG1 on VAR duty have probably made more wrong /none
       calls combined than Lee Mason in his own this season the
       handball shout was poor given the call against Ashley Barnes the
       other day

       It must’ve been my poor eyesight but the potential handball for
       Burnley looked to hit the Villa player on the left side of the
       chest. For me this is a non-argument.

       No problem for me. Harsh red card, penalty for handball was
       exactly the same as the one given against Burnley on Sunday.
       Three offsides not given which resulted in Villa corners, same
       AR gave a corner for a ball put out by the Villa player.
       Watkins fell over himself when running for a ball with Long of
       Burnley, free kick awarded and Long received a caution.
       Foul throw leading to the Villa goal not given --his foot was
       about one foot onto the pitch1
       One Villa player kicks another one accidentally ----result
       ---free kick to Villa.
       Luiz kicks the crap out of Roberts after he had been fouled by
       Digne ---no caution. All is fair in the PL unless
       ................
       Burnley had not had a player dismissed for well over 100 games
       until March this year. Paul Tierney has managed to dismiss two
       in the last eight weeks.
       I really am getting fed up of football at the top level. VAR was
       supposedly going to give a fairer deal, however, I don't think
       that this has proved to be the case.
       I just hope that The Championship manages to stave it off for a
       bit longer!

       That is the convincing argument that the Villa player was
       putting forward, his chest, his shoulder ---in fact, after
       watching his histrionics, I am convinced that he was 20 yards
       away from the ball.

       Ashley Barnes elbows Mings in the face which wasn’t even
       checked- as quoted by the commentators
       A soft penalty given (2 in 2 for Tierney)
       What looks like a clear penalty for handball with current rules
       not given
       A very harsh red card, it’s never a red in a millions years
       Poor night for officials especially John Brooks who missed an
       offside in the build up to a goal last week, you have to wonder
       was he watching the villa game or was he actually laughing at
       Everton fans celebrating staying up? Or more simply watching
       Coronation street like his colleagues do occasionally 😉

       Watching the game in the stadium, not too far from the main
       camera position and commentary gantry, i said to my friends
       close by straight red before Tierney pulled it out, maybe
       because i saw him going to his top pocket.
       From a distance it looked a nasty challenge, overstretching.
       The handball i couldnt see clearly from my position, i was too
       far away and blocked by players.
       Having watched the highlights on returning home, my thoughts are
       seen them given.
       No problems with penalty given, clear foul by buendia right in
       front of me, he knew what he had done by his reaction.
       Forearm smash earlyish on Barnes on Mings went unpunished,
       should have been checked if cameras picked it up as it was off
       the ball. Petulant kick out on Roberts by Luiz goes unpunished.
       My overall reaction to Tierney performance was very mixed, a
       little inconsistent and certainly as a villa fan can say we
       definately got the rub of the green on decisions.
       As for the game Villa should have won the chances they had, but
       the devine intervention of Pope saved Burnley a point.
       There were four or five magnificent saves.
       Burnley squandered a chance to win it near the end when Weghorst
       should have scored.
       Result follows a pattern where Villa when trying to do the
       double over teams usually end drawing the second game.
       On reflection having seen highLights i think the Ayew foul was
       far worse than that of Lowton.
       I find it scary how our top sg1 officials struggle to detect SFP
       correctly and the same can be said of var who seem to be scared
       to send a top referee to the monitor.
