Officials

I hate VAR but errors like this make you see the value in it.

---------------

totally agree

VAR was made for this but I have sympathy for the linesman, incredibly difficult, if not impossible to know when the pass has been made, easy when it's frozen by the camera but the linesman can only see when the ball has actually moved away from the player making the pass, only then can look across the line.

have to agree with that too Promotion

Looking into?

There is nothing to look into, he isn't corrupt or taking bribes he is just incompetent.

Guy just isn't good enough at his jobs and shouldn't be trusted at this level as he is clearly not up to it.

Leeds should contact the football league but should do so in a calm clear way where they lay down the constant mistakes he has made, show the evidence and then tell them that this linesmen has shown time and time again he isn't good enough to meet the expected standard of reffing at this level.

Don't make him being corrupt the story because if you do the FA will use that as a defense of gum and make that the focus of the complaint.

Just be simple and to the point - he isn't good enough, he is the proof, now don't let him anywhere nearbour games again

Ref on Saturday is the same one as for the reverse fixture.

Remember the challenge on Bogle by the bloke who'd just been booked?

I partly agree with this, it’s such a difficult job especially with the pace of the game nowadays. But last nights errors, especially the first one, were bread and butter that you’d expect to get right in a local Sunday morning game

One mistake is an error, Two you have to question if you're up to the job, three is inexcusable especially if all are against the one team..
He should never officiate in Professional football again

But it was one error each. These things happen. I don't like VAR but if it could be used to adjudge obvious line errors in a matter of seconds, I would support it.

Unfortunately, our history is littered with bent officials.
