The second angle screwed you over, I would have stuck with the yellow but we have all seen these given, so no surprise he changed for a red.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Cooper was a yard quicker to the ball. Not even a foul for me. Games gone soft.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The game has changed, if that was the other way around I would not be surprised our player was sent off, thats the way it goes now.

The second angle showed the (accidental) contact, but Cooper was first to the ball. It was a bit reckless but not " serious foul play " .

If you'd seen the Sheff Utd player's challenge ( assault ) on Roberts the other week, which went totally unpunished, you'd see why us Leeds fans are a bit miffed!

For me VAR has now killed football and i think i would rather get relegated and play in the championship without it.

Nearly the same as the first game.

2 nailed on penalities denied but this time a red card challenge actually resulted in a red card.
---------------------------------------------------------------------

Was one of those the ricochet onto Bill's arm, no wonder city are top if they are getting pens like that.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
We probaly get a fifth of the penalties we should do - We certainly don't have Salah or Bruno type players who get absolutely everything.

On viewing it again, it's a bad challenge.

But after last week when a worse challenge wasn't even yellow, it's hard to take

Jake on BT - "... sets it up really nicely for the second half" - Clearly a City fan, absolute joke.

Norwich City, he loathes us.

Well we've pretty much defended OK backs to the wall stuff against a first half of city dominance with only one real scare so if anything Struyk being a better defender than Cooper should strengthen us.

Bamford was really isolated and hardly offered us much apart from the goal so I'll let him off but really it should be more of the same and hopefully we can hang on.

Having said that if City bring on their subs we may succumb to a second half thrashing. We'll see.
Totally undeserved first half lead but who cares. Come on Leeds!

Its the inconsistency of var that gets you. I could forgive that if decisions elsewhere were consistent to it. Baldock last week, Raphinha ankle stood on this week. No consistency.,

He plays the ball and follows through. Free kick and yellow card fair enough. Red? That's OTT.

Get used to it, thats the way it will be now you are back in the Prem.

Sorry but the whataboutism about the Roberts decision dosent factor in here.

The ref was told to have another look at it and when he saw that second angle he was always going to walk.

So much pressure on refs to get it right the var took the problem away from him, he can now point to that second angle and say look how bad it was.

He dosent do that and he may get called into a meeting with the fa on Monday.

Why risk it...

Shouldn't have to get used to it, the FA put these "Fair Play" signs all over the place, they should try it sometime .

Come Onnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn Leeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeds!!!

Well the experts seem to disagree.

If you lose this its entirely on Cooper

posted on 10/4/21

Baldock should have got a red card. That doesn't mean that the ref can't send Cooper off.

Both pundits said red and both were international centre backs lol

ABSOLUTE JOKE

Their bench is scary

City players just have to fall over, and the free kick is theirs
