I've said it before I'll say it again the sooner we f*** officials and VAR off, the better they will soon get to replaying the whole of the game before a goal is scored to find a reason to disallow a goal they are taking all the joy out of the game.

I agree took way to long but the ball was out

I will always say that VAR is only right if it can be used for any error, not just specific circumstances.
If they can chalk that goal off, why could we not get a corner when they wrongly gave a goal kick towards the end? That was a factual decision so why can VAR not touch that one when giving them more chance to time timewaste gives them an advantage?

It wouldn’t bother me if there was pictures to show it over the line but there was zero proof to rule out a massive goal in the title race, it’s a joke.
title challenge is well and truly done at this point, hopefully we c as n pick ourselves up and hold onto champions league place.
It baffles me a bit why Onana and Digne didn’t get a chance for the last 20 mins when we needed height in the box and Digne deliveries ?♂️are they carrying knocks possibly?
If not I see it as poor decisions from the boss.
well and truly gutted after the last 2 home games, obviously we are missing players and it’s going to hurt us but we had no plan B today and it was just the s as me thing over and over and over, very disappointing

Tom did you see a definitive picture of the ball out? I agree it looked out but VAR wasn’t introduced for opinions it was introduced for clear and obvious errors and if there isn’t a picture from above or in line with the sideline then it’s not clear and obvious.
the best one for me was “the closest Brentford player called it as out so it probably was” if we are relying on players to call decisions against their own team the sport is well and truly finished

Agree about no plan B. Had more than enough possession but not enough guile to change our method of attack.
Extremely disappointing and frustrating in equal measures.
Oh well, we go again. UTV

It was 19 seconds between when the ball went out and the ball hitting the back of the net. Are we still in the first phase of play? I don’t know but you do have to ask how far back can the officials go back it is really frustrating. I hope refereeing decisions dot cost us European qualification yet again
