Think the logic was “if you’ve given it against him for diving you need to book him”. It wasn’t a dive, I couldn’t really see but had assumed there was some other infringement so the handball on the floor makes sense.

I think the issue is now the linesmen , they are certainly no longer assistant referees
2 things yesterday
1) The corner kick thing, the linesman could clearly see where the ball was in relation to the quadrant, but didnt tell the ref happened twice, the 1st one was ok, the 2nd the ref didnt go over, and was then outside
2) one of their players was given offside by the ref from 30 yards, when the linesman looking along the line didnt give it
its been the same for a long time now, they are generally very very poor

A lot of misunderstanding around this. Since the introduction of headsets they are in constant communication with the referee. They don't immediately flag something as they speak to the referee first, much better that than one give one decision & one another - we've all seen how embarrassing that is.
I think and fear it's going to be the future,but worse than that,a fully operational automated algorithm or something like that.

There was no decision to make. Styles made it for him.Madness how he's getting credit for giving styles a second yellowthere won't be a more blatant yellow all season.
It was so blatant

He was never going to send him off. He could have done 10 more fouls and not been sent off.

You might want to look at it again. He was knee high with ball long gone. A red every day of the week.

Honestly, I don't know what to say anymore. I have absolutely no faith that anything will ever change.
The guy could have been sent off twice and had no complaints about it. But no. Stays on the pitch, turns the game completely in their favour.
Of course.
Not excusing the fact we were absolutely poor, mind you.

Lati did that and got a booking for saying their player should be off.

Mainly because it wasn't worth moaning about. The Allen one is horrid.

Basically that it's a clear red and it's another bad decision.

The ref’s decision was bad but he had one quick view of it. You’ve had time and still get it wrong. Explain why you think it was ok

3 previous games, clear penalties missed.
Clear red today.
It's ok though a ref gets applause because he sent styles off for the most obvious booking all year.

The game turns on that decision, we couldn't contain them after he stays on.
Nick

So he just guessed and gave him a yellow?

Probably.
He knows it's a foul I'm guessing but couldn't have seen the severity because it was so late.
That is the type of thing VAR was bought in for.

Boro given two bullshit penalties in as many games. We struggle to get red cards even when the opposition commit GBH.
Hard not to think that Lampard calling out a shit ref to his face is biting us now.

Part of me is starting to wonder if the refs are being so bad on purpose this season to ease into the idea of bringing VAR to the championship, claiming it will help them etc.
