Appalling inconsistency!!
It does seem that people can just come on here and say what they
like. I bet if you did the washing up 50 times you’d do it
differently 50 times. And that’s easier to do than making
decisions in a fast pace game whilst trying to take into account
every so called similar decision that has ever been made in the
past.
[/quote]
My point is, they have VAR and come to a completely different
decision on the same incident. It is virtually identical in
fact as an incident. Neither should be penalties, so why was
last week’s one given??!!
[/quote]
First of all i agree that both the incidents you refer to should
not be penalties, i said as a villa fan last saturday it wasnt a
pen and a week later i still dont think it was. however their is
a huge difference, last saturday the referee gave a penalty and
var didnt think it clear and obvious to overturn as there was
contact whereas tonight the referee didnt give a penalty and var
saw no reason to overturn that decision so no penalty was given.
You cant keep re refereeing matches, you have to follow
protocols.
Mr Barrott has had an excellent half, very fit, positioning good
and all correct calls so far. I would say he looks a born
natural referee and i can see why he is being pushed so quickly.
Odd blips in performance will occur whilst on a meteoric rise of
such a young referee as was the case a few weeks ago when he was
at newcastle. He does seem to have the confidence and mental
strength to take it in his stride so should continue to be
pushed.
As for appalling inconsistency, i think one is looking through
white tinted glasses again during a game. If it was the same
referee and var you were comparing between tonights fame and the
villa game last saturday you might gain a little more credence,
as it is you are comparing apples with oranges as different
referees have different tolerance levels and see subjective
decisions differently.

I think you've hit the nail on the head with this comment. VAR
was not brought in to re referee the game it was brought in to
get involved when the referee made an absolute howler. I do
think we have gone away from this as VAR analyses every incident
because of how much supporters complain where as they should
only get involved when absolutely necessary.

I don’t know. Why can a player take 2 penalties, score one and
put one wide?
Maybe because that’s just the way life works?
Nothing is really ever the same is it? There are always
differences.
[/quote]
Not necessarily. Some things are the same for example a headbutt
is a headbutt and a punch is a punch. Okay when it comes to
things like contact then yeah there will always be differences
as one referee will see it one way and one won't which is why
people get frustrated with VAR as they'll get involved one week
and won't the next for the same incident.
[/quote]
You can’t refer to “the same incident” when just a few words
earlier you have said “there will always be differences” I
think?!?! It can’t be both.

Yes, it literally is to re referee the game.
"This was a mistake, we're going to re referee it to get the
correct outcome."
We can window dress however you want, but ultimately something
is being re refereed to get the correct(dubious) outcome.

Surely all this talk about it was given at that game and not
this is totally impossible. I thought most referees would state
that you can only hope for consistency for the game in question.
There is absolutely no way you can compare game to game. Bottom
line law states in the opinion of the referee.

This is what frustrates me about the VAR debate. Maybe it’s
right, it was brought in for the “shockers” but in reality that
was never going to be all it was used for and I don’t get why
people don’t get that.
In cricket technology wasn’t brought in so that someone can get
a decision changed because the ball pitched half an inch
differently but that’s what it is used for.
In rugby technology probably wasn’t introduced so that we can
see whether a players foot is a millimetre in touch before he
scores a try but that’s what it is used for.
As soon as technology was introduced in football it was always
going to be used for things other than solely the howlers or
shockers. And yet it still seems to be catching people by
surprise when this happens.

look at incidents on there own merit but also do take in to

Take on board everything everyone on here has said. Just
doesn’t sit well that with VAR, they can decide one week an
incident is a penalty for a foot tap, and the next nothing
given.
Johnson now touched in the box even more similarly to the Villa
one, and nothing given again. Burnley fans must be chuckling
again at how differently the incidents have been judged.

Well i guess our definition of re refereeing is slightly
different. I don't think VAR coming in for a decision which is
quite clearly wrong is re refereeing where as when they come in
for a decision that is subjective then that is re refereeing the
game.
