Is English officiating corrupt?

Never really liked ESPN for football coverage, but this is pretty good. Good to see some pundits call him out...

A bit of satire obviously.

Doesn't sound right does, could be fake news. Very sus IMO.

It’s a bit of humour

What is poor is Webb came and said the defender made contact first with the ball and the said both were high

Both incorrect with evidence

It’s a shame, imagine a pen against Arsenal and city which we should have had

Could have changed this title race

I don’t think it’s corruption in the sense of a wide organisational conspiracy from the prem and refs.

But I think the whole process allows an opportunity for refs who are taking paycheques from city’s bosses (a fact with their involvement in Middle East games) to basically set their own agenda.

The lack of professionalism is embarrassing when you hear the VAR audio and not just with this incident. All of them are just cringeworthy. 

I just saw a stat online ... klopp has lost 81 games here. 40 of them with wythenshawe anthony taylor in charge and 17 of them with another of his manchester favs in charge, Paul Tierney. 57 out of 81. Im sure another manchester ref mr kavanagh of ashton under lyne will have a few in there as well.

My dad is a statto. Ive got him looking into it.

And we have the Coote, Tierney and the blind person Cook at the weekend.........
God help us all

Don't think that's anywhere near correct mate.

This is the record we have when Taylor has been officiating us and I don't think there's even 40 games he's been in charge of since Jürgen arrived let alone us losing 40.

Coote on VAR for the Odegaard pen appeal. Webb admitted this was a mistake. Tierney with Cook (Spurs) on VAR. Arguable got a beef with almost every Ref on the panel.

Said before.."We have to knock them out..never get it on points decision" Almost expect it now.

Tierney with Cook (Spurs) on VAR.

When was this?

Cook bears no responsibility for England's error at the Spurs game.

I'm not worried about Tierney.  We have won every game with him in charge this season.

Cook was suspended for his part in the 'errors' made during the Spurs game.

It still wasn't his fault. It was the VAR who said Check Complete at the wrong time. Not him.

Who should they sound like? Jacob Rees Mogg?
All it is is a conversation. How professional does it really need to be?

Very, seeing as it is their F***ing job imbecile

Pipe down liar

Coote was his usual self. Foul count was 20-6. I mean..what more than 3 times as many fouls as them. At one point he gave a corner after they appealed. Seemed to be influenced by their appeal.

8 bookings....5 for us and 3 for them and they only committed 6 fouls, so he booked them for every other foul. Most bizarre incident when he was most annoyed, he noticed 2 balls sitting behind the goal, and rushed over to move them.

Pound to a penny he was in charge of the pencils at school..

Coote has to be the worst official in the league. That was embarrassing.

His surname sounds like a swear word as in 'He's such a coote'. Gives off the air of someone who's never been satisfied in life. Was it true he was having a go at the ball boys as well? F***ing dieve.

2 of the worst penalties given this weekend. Really bad. Is there any hope?

There was a new rule came in last week about ball boys not being allowed to give the ball to players anymore and maximum number of balls along the pitch and at each end
