So wolves have been charged for the reaction to fourth goal

- a penalty should have been given to us in the match
- the lino missed a blatant foul .

Yet we are charged . Not the incompetent cheating officials .

Farce

Zero accountability as always.

 

[Spitfire]

Mixed up my games,Yes it was Jones and he sent off Doherty and Van La Parra.I have recollections of fat Brendan sending off Sako on the BW side around the halfway line against someone

Was it Watford? Think Forestieri made a meal of a challenge.

That’s the one .Thanks

 

[JOSWolf]

So we are charged for reaction to a clown ref not disallowing a goal which clearly shouldn’t have stood and the idiot linesman getting nunes sent off for nothing. Just wonderful.

 

[Dan G WWFC]

Zero accountability as always.

But, think about the refs. The poor refs getting shouted at for being ****e.

 

[old wittonian]

Some of these refs should be charged with bringing the game into disrepute.

Which is why I keep saying that unless we challenge these decisions they will continue.

 

[inaglasshouse]

It's clear we are fighting the officials every game till the end of the season. We have to stick together and get behind JL and every player, despite being 13th we are still in a very bad situation because of the game in hand and the form of the bottom teams showing signs of picking up.

 

[Ned]

So we have been charged by the FA because their officials had a shocking game capped off with a terrible, vindictive decision and WE get the charge?

Sadly that makes perfect sense in todays game.

Surely the worst of the lot , VAR Spurs v Brighton , a weak , useless , gutless individual.

This is the chap from the Leeds and Bournemouth games isn’t it?

His decisions as VAR yesterday were some of the worst I’ve seen.

A hideous penalty for Brentford too - not sure who the VAR was.

The whole system has not delivered one positive outcome to enhance the game, bar obvious offside decisions.

Absolutely awful again.
Not fit to wear the whistle.
Wheel him out.National League standard ref.

The decision for BrentFord was no more than that on Semedo

Harsh on the National League that.

 

[Oh When the Wolves]

There is literally no justication for the Brighton penalty to not be given. None whatsoever

Howard Webb has to go and replace him with a panel of ex pros in charge of these refs

Why does the ref not get to check it himself on the screen at the game, on a mic, and remove the useless **** on VaR

It’s crazy how football have implemented it so badly when it works so easily in rugby

And the goal disallowed for handball when it hit the guy’s hip, that was as bad as Moutinho’s handball at Man City last year.

Brighton must feel very aggrieved. Why wasn’t the referee wasn’t asked to check the screen for a penalty? Everything went against Brighton, and we thought VAR was tough for us!

 

[WISAW]

Just watched the spuds v bha match on motd. How can var get it so wrong, I'm again, gobsmacked. That disallowed one aside where it hits his hip, bha had 2 clear pens denied by var, utter sham.

 

[Snarlingwolf]

IMO, absolute proof that the FA and the PGMOL are corrupt.

No-one, no referee or VAR official could ever be that incompetent with the clear images caught on the cameras.

They had obviously conspired before the match that “no way must Brighton win this match v Spurs. We need Spurs to be in the top 5 not Brighton - it wouldn’t be good for business.…….”

It’s very difficult to not think that. I’ve not heard one person that agrees with the decisions.

I am fully in the camp of corruption rather than incompetence. There is too much money in the game and the Brand of the Premier League. Can’t possibly have another Leicester. Can’t possibly have a club like Brighton, Brentford or Fulham in Europe.

Who’s getting screwed over next week? Villa must be looking over their shoulder, can’t have them taking a place from Chelsea or Liverpool.

Whether it’s corruption or incompetence, it’s actually embarrassing. I haven’t got the answers but we’ve gotta hope Howard Webb has, because things need to change.

[JOSWolf]

The bloke is absolutely useless as is Attwell. Both should be binned along with a few of the other useless fools.

 

[arctic rime]

Something has to change and fast !!!!

 

[maws]

The 2 worst non penalty decisions of the season, Brighton and us. Yet people will say the EPL isn’t biased. It’s now a big 7, the money Newcastle have means very soon they’ll be up there. The other 13 are there to make up numbers

 

[Bognor_Wolf]

Changing the subject a little but anyone else think since Howard Webb has come in the decisions are just worse and worse plus a hell of a lot more of them!?

Seems to be apologizing for mistakes every week at the moment and with VAR that has got to be so embarrassing for "professional" refs...

I have always thought it was incompetence, but some of those decisions at Tottenham defied any logic.

The annoying thing is that Webb will probably be sending Brighton an apology. But that is not good enough, he needs to sort out this mess, not write a letter and think that will do. Brighton must be absolutely fuming at what happened yesterday.

 

[SmiffyWolf]

End of the season I do think VAR needs looking at but also the clowns overseeing it . Maybe the dugouts get a monitor and can challenge 2 decisions with the on field ref against the var ref .

If I was Brighton I wouldn’t take the call. What’s the point.

I don’t disagree but unfortunately we can’t stop the season so who would we replace them with ?
I am available and miles better than many of the useless fools we have to endure today

 

[sedgwolf1980]

Just get rid of VAR all together. Even yesterday when Nunes smashed in a Van Basten-esqe volley, I couldn’t properly celebrate due to the nagging feeling VAR might look at something completely innocuous from 30 seconds earlier.

I have seen posts on here saying how Howard Webb would be a breath of fresh air, in actual fact he's been an absolute disaster.
It has got worse and these weekly apologies are really rubbing it in. Webb is every inch "establishment" and nothing will change with him in charge. Unfortunately no pundit will use the word corrupt because they would never work again as all the media are fully behind the idea that the "top" sides should always prevail if at all possible.
We have to accept it isn't a level playing field and hasn't been for some time.

 

[Wolf in Kenilworth]

It’s either big team bias or serious incompetence.

Or both.

 

[S G Wolves]

Now PGMOL have apologised for the Brighton non pen. Absolute disgrace they couldn't get it right in the first place. Such easy decisions. Poor, poor officiating. Heads need to roll.

You’re right it’s definitely worse under Webb.

Or, and l am sadly starting to come around to this view, institutionalised corruption.

Not sure about that one, from what I've seen with Rugby they check nearly everything excessively and still get decisions wrong but there's less uproar as fewer people care and managers and players are less likely to slag the refs off.

Can’t remember if it was this thread or another where I mentioned this, but it absolutely has got worse since Webb.

I think it’s because he’s introduced a directive where he wants VAR to be used less.

But the refs have got used to having it as a comfort blanket, so they aren’t making big calls.

So we are in this weird state of limbo where refs aren’t making big calls, but VAR isn’t getting involved to question that and make the big calls either.

But then because VAR intervention is less frequent, when VAR does get involved, the refs don’t have the balls to stick with their original decisions as they think it must be clear and obvious. Like the ridiculous penalty given against Newcastle yesterday, which the ref initially didn’t give!

How many gambling firms sponsor PL clubs? How much money is gambled on PL games each week? What influence does the gambling underworld have on players, referees and spot fixing?

The authorities need to get their act together and follow the money.
