Gordon sent off but wtf? 20:49 - Aug 25 with 1833 viewsblueasfook

The ref announced the decision to the crowd over loudspeaker. Like fookin yank football or something.

Horrible isn't it.

They won't be satisfied until it's become the NFL.

Refcam too. Just rubbish.

Just show the game!

Also not sure it was a red. In the old days ref would have seen it as an over enthusiastic challenge and a yellow but not a red.

I still don’t think it was a red. Stupid yes - but it was just a slightly clumsy tackle from a forward closing down a defender

Definitely an "Anfield" decision

Excessive force, out of control from behind. Red all day long.

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

Awful, isn't it? They will have to add public speaking to the referee training school.

By the letter of the law maybe but didn't refereeing use to be about common sense?

I think in today's game its a red.

It was late and could've caused Van Dijk serious injury as he didn't see it and was in mid clearance.

As for the announcement, awful

One of the biggest complaints about VAR has been that people in the stadium have no idea what's going on, hence they're explaining why decisions have been overturned.

I'm not a huge fan but at least it conveys some information to the fans actually in the ground.

The refcam thing is horrible, makes me feel a bit motion sick.

Watching the replay just now, his studs go right down the back of Van Dykes leg. Worthy of a red.

Yeah, red all day long. The fact he sprinted 30 yards to clatter him, get nowhere near the ball, and leave stud marks down his calf all add up to it being a red.

The evidence of the foul on the back of the calf shows that it was clearly a red.

Yeah. But it's still an abomination.

Also I have never seen a ref go to the screen and not overturn the decision. What's the point.

The game has gone by providing the crowd with more info on a decision made? I didn't see it or hear it, but so long as it wasn't done so the ref stopped the game to give the update (which according to your post they didn't) I don't see the issue with it

Maybe it'll help people connect more with the decisions made on th pitch?

Personally I like it

Oh don't get me wrong there are still many things I dislike about VAR, but I don't think the explaining of decisions is making it any worse.

VAR is crap, stadium announcements like that are crap.

But that was a red. Raked his studs right down the back of his calf.

You can't tackle the ref like that and expect to stay on. VD is the ref in this one isn't he?

It's very American though isn't it.

Gleeful bureaucracy for TV audience.
