According to the BBC gossip column. The Premier League are looking into Chelsea’s transfer dealings back in 2013. Nothing like being on the ball is there ?

If I’m not mistaken, I think they’ve reported themselves!

Fulham supporters are protesting today about ticket prices, both for individual games and season tickets. Tickets for their game against the Rags today range between £67 and £160. In my experience of going to Fulham it's almost like a tourist attraction with tickets snapped up by what appear to be foreign visitors who I don't think will have a clue about pricing.

To be fair, if Maguire left that alone, it’s onside and doesn’t even get a review. For me though, if he doesn’t touch it, which I don’t think he does, then it should be onside and therefore, a goal.

[Silas]

It's absolutely hilarious is what it is.

Talk about taking a kicking when you're down. 

[simongarnerisgod]

not a great half of football,utd are not very good and fulham are content to sit and wait for their one big chance

That Newcastle goal should never have stood. VAR clearly showed the ball went out of play before it was crossed for the goal.

What's the use of it?

[AllRoverAsia]

Replace the humans with AI and VAR will be perfect.

All involved in PL games will be AI in just a few years anyway so start now.

* I am joking, sort of, but AI could not be worse that Webb's Plebs.

Why don't stadiums have cameras situated level with the goal lines? Do the corner flags get in the way?

I actually think it was a goal. The VAR angle seemed to show green next to the ball and the line but it wasn't conclusive. They shouldn't have bothered looking at other 2. It wasn't a foul nor was Gordon offside.

I liked the game too. It was short on chances but there was lots of full-blooded play. Havertz was lucky to stay on, and Guimares should have been sent off for elbowing Jorginho.

Wolves got screwed again. It was never a penalty.

It was conclusively over the line. Couldn't believe it.

Clear shove in the back of the defender too. Also, shouldn’t the ball be inside the quadrant from corners? 

[AllRoverAsia]

Saudi money bends lines, makes a shove a caress.

They are magicians, not just killers of mothers and children.

Howard Webb could always be relied upon to make sure the decisions went in favour of the right team. Now he's running the whole outfit. 

Really any wonder why the standards of reffing are so bad?

That sums up Webb

 People forget what he was like as a Ref and he, for reasons unknown, was regarded as Mr. Honest Nice Guy

He was the ref for the West Ham game at Ewood that was clearly fixed. 

A dodgy penalty, a goal that didn't cross the line and sending off Bentley for being fouled.

It’s game like that one that make you wonder.

My first thought was ‘shove’.

My second thought was VE Day 95.

My third thought was ‘no foul’ 😀

[K-Hod]

To not see that ball being out of play, is probably the worst display of incompetence I can recall.

[simongarnerisgod]

it`s starting to make me wonder if there is some sort of corrupt betting angle going on with var,how you can`t work out the ball is out of play despite having 5 minutes to look at it is definately raising suspicion in my eyes,no one can be that incompetent,even my mother,who has absolutely no interest in football can spot when a ball goes out of play

Luton v Liverpool and Sky sports just put a "tale of the tape" up beforehand.

Lutons transfer spend since 1992 = £32m

Liverpool's = £1.8bn

Absolutely insane.

I imagine most of that was spent this summer.

Yet here they are in the Premier League regardless, the strength of the football pyramid in this country is unrivalled, we should all cherish it… despite the elite game doing everything in its power to snuff it out.
