A Referee’s job of late has grown to be under the Spotlight for the decisions made.
I’m not interested in digging out individual club players or what happened 5 years ago for example. I’m talking about the Here and Now and serious clamping down needed.
To me, it’s having to a degree, repercussions on those who are legitimately brought down in the box for example and not being awarded a Penalty that they should.
I’m tired of Divers and something needs to be done about them.

25th January 2018 at 1:18 pm #13749A yellow as a caution.
I don’t want any player to be sent off for the sake of it as it would ruin the game, Pax, but at the same time, there are certain players still getting away with it.

25th January 2018 at 1:58 pm #13753Would probably be easier to just eliminate humans then.

25th January 2018 at 2:14 pm #13755AnonymousThey should have an independent review of match footage, and they should refer ANY incidents which appear to be controversial in any way (minimal contact, no contract, foot being left in to make contact, theatrics after contact etc) to the review panel.
That way the panel will review all controversial incidents and can rule whether or not the players involved acted fairly, in a sportsmanlike manner or not.
They should then ban those who did not. This should apply to players who received a booking within the match too.
That way they will make a clear statement on what is acceptable and what is not, and it is not arbitrary who gets reviewed (currently they can only review in certain circumstances). Also, players will not always get banned, so it is less of ‘banned before the review’ type situation.

25th January 2018 at 3:02 pm #13757Anonymousgood points alfie. i agree especially about exaggerating contact. i fucking hate it. whilst they are not attempting to con the ref, they are using theatrics to influence the refs decision.
diving is an epidemic. i think if a ref thinks a player has dived, it should be taken to VAR and if guilty a straight red with a 3 game ban and if they aren’t sure it should be dealt with by a panel after the game with a 4 game ban as they were able to carry on in the game they dived.

26th January 2018 at 8:59 pm #13826Alfie, only just clicked into this thread and appreciate and agree with your thoughts mate.
Paxton only wants to thrive on forever Hobby Horse and thinks he’s a step above everyone else. Typical Levy Frustration, but there you go; ridicule Liverpool at any opportunity!

26th January 2018 at 9:23 pm #13832Diving/simulation/exaggeration it’s all trying to con the referee, when the ref doesn’t spot it he/she gets crucified. The only outrage to this epidemic of blatant cheating comes from the fans, the players revel in it, the clubs encourage it, and the pundits justify it.
In another contex, some low life cons a granny out of her life savings (yes I know we’re comparing football to crime) and no one tries to justify it, they’re branded quite rightly as scum.
In summary, the only way to stop this is to make it unacceptable to do, and that has to come from the players, clubs and pundits, fines and suspensions aren’t working, so the only way I see to do it is to humiliate and shame any player and club caught doing it…Pagan

26th January 2018 at 9:59 pm #13842NB, so you justify it by saying others are doing it, I don’t, I apply it equally across all teams at all levels of the game, you won’t find me defending any player that dives/simulates/exaggerates…Pagan

26th January 2018 at 10:07 pm #13845No worries. Stuff naturally spilling from another thread, Pagan. Good learning point for me to consider leaving this once and for all; seen a fair few true colours tonight.

27th January 2018 at 11:28 am #13858AnonymousNil – what on earth arr you on about? Where did I ridicule Liverpool? Why do I think I’m a step above everyone else? How have you come to those conclusions based on my responses in this thread?

27th January 2018 at 6:41 pm #13900AnonymousNil – if you’re gonna call people out and make accusations at least have the decency to explain but true to form you’ve stayed quiet. Exactly what is expected from you

27th January 2018 at 6:47 pm #13902Pax, I wasn’t actually trying to offend you and I apologize if I did. It’s not anything personal, just a clash of opinions. My annoyance at the time was that I was expecting something constructive in terms of suggestions rather than something played down, which I didn’t feel it was helping.
Believe me mate, I’m not interested in ‘calling anyone out’ not my style.

27th January 2018 at 7:13 pm #13904Can’t help but read this thread and see that a familiar pattern has developed. Nil can you do us all a favour pal and stop being so over sensitive about Liverpool. You give verbals to anybody that you even think has been derogatory about Liverpool even when they haven’t been. It was me last week over a clear joke. Prior to that its been Sean and Nine on several occasions on this and other forums. And now completely randomly you have a pop at Paxton. You need to realise that we aren’t all going to love LFC like you do. People are going to criticise them, people are going to joke about them etc etc and it’s that bias that makes us fans. I haven’t seen anything on this forum that is OTT imo but you randomly having a pop at people will just piss posters off and they won’t bother coming on here and posting. Cheers Jim

27th January 2018 at 7:19 pm #13905AnonymousBut nil you offered no opinion yourself. You’ve started about 30,000 threads on this site and moan when people don’t post on them then on this one you brought up a topic and offered no opinion and then go on a rant about people not liking Liverpool despite there being zero references to Liverpool. I hope you can understand why I just can’t take you seriously.
