      I’ve seen some quite terrible refereeing/VAR decisions lately and on the threads you inevitably get somebody arguing that “you think you know better than the referees, commentators and pundits who are ex professionals?!?!”

      My answer isn’t that I know better, it’s that I know a fucking foul when I see one and I don’t give a shit what Gary Neville says.

        I’m being a bit over the top here, but by that logic, if you go into a restaurant and Chef pulls down there pants and takes a shit on your plate, then your just suppose to eat it because the chef is a “professional” and you are not? “What do you know about good cuisine compared to the Chef! Peasant!”

        I may not know how to cook a Michelin star meal, but I know a plate of shit when I see it! And I been fed a whole load of shit by the FA, PGMOL and the Broadcasters this year and I’m fkin sick of it.

      No reason to usually - but Arsenal are actually the only team ever to have a decision go against them. So that’s why this is such a big deal

      Arsenal fans used this panel’s rulings as gospel both last season and earlier this season when that list of PGMOL “apologies” was released by Sky. So just a bit funny to see it being discredited now that the shoe is on the other foot
