Our PK was already given and was borderline anyway. The Muscat decision in the Sydney game was correct as was Brama’s last night.
The biggest problem right now, which is totally fixable, is the confusion about when and how it’s used. The ref reviewing his own decisions last night in the Scum match shouldn’t have happened (I didn’t see anything wrong with McGings tackle). I don’t get why they have someone upstairs review but the ref can also look at a screen. It’s gotta be one or the other. Also, is it only used if the ref asks a question or do upstairs review on their own accord!? Lose some inconsistency and I think it’ll become more effective & less controversial.
Okon’s whinge last night about fans not returning was only because he was at home. Had they been away from home that wouldn’t have been raised.
It’s amazing how many EPL fans I see on forums absolutely crying out for it.
