Premier League Match Thread: Brighton and Hove Albion Vs Nottingham Forest, sponsored by RESPECT

Moreno and Aina - who you said was also out - both trained today.

Nuno will also be in the dugout on Saturday.
Good. Just voicing my fears. Glad Nuno is on side line. Traore Tete on right was Fulham’s big threat and Robinson on right. Smith Rowe, Pereira, Berge, Awobi is some midfield. Need a first home win now to keep positive vibes going. Fulham are a decent team.
 
Took a look at Fulham’s last game to get a view on how they played. One thing that stood out was the form of Newcastles Gordon. Failed to track back, lack of penetration, throwing arms up at colleagues when mistakes made. He did not look a happy bunny and feeds the suggestion he wants out and is off to Liverpool.

Newcastle over the summer we’re courting Elanga and Elanga appears to support the idea.

This week Forest are rumoured to be making enquiries of two young right wingers. Koleosho at Burnley and Betis 19 yr old. Perhaps something in those rumours?
 
I still think Forest should produce merch with "It's the same every week you ****" on it. Perhaps the training tabards that the substitutes wear could say that. Then they would also be seen by the Fourth Official, which turns out to be more important than we might have thought.

presume this should be unofficial. anything official but would be hilarious but probably costly...

would love it though.
 
The biggest and best league in the world [sic] with the worst refereeing; and they are the worst by a considerable distance.

We can joke all day long about letters of apology from the PRO, but they count for nothing in the long run.

There is only one loser and that will impact on the amount of points we pick up.
I don't need convincing that Anthony Taylor is a corrupt referee. The MGW incident has confirmed that for me. There was no need for him to overturn the on field referees decision and thus undermine him, the after match " committee " verdict confirms it. Why did he want to get involved is the question that needs answering in my opinion.

He got involved because the Brighton bench went banana’s about the tackle but also about him agreeing with Jones and saying he got the ball. He is not allowed to get involved in on field incidents unless red or yellow card. Hurzeler shouting abuse at him made him realise he can only get involved under stated circumstances. He therefore changed this to “yellow card” and needed to make a point otherwise he was in it up to his neck. He repeated this twice more to ensure he was heard and within guidance. He saved his skin.

I don’t think he is corrupt. His only personal gain was saving his skin from reprimand, having intervened against guidance and regulation. He just isn’t very good at his job. As was shown in the Everton game.

Agree with all of the above few comments. As I have said before Taylor is one of those officials that craves the limelight & likes nothing more than being the centre of attention. I don’t think he cares whether his decisions are right or wrong as long as it feeds his ego & gets him talked about. Horrible arrogant little man
 
imo another layer on this is that it's not like the league is a level playing field in the first place so these little bullshits are magnified cos every point is sacred.

A referee is corrupt in my view if he makes a decision based on anything other than what he made the decision on at the time on an infringement of a rule of the game. Anything else such as a vendetta, personal dislikes, outside influences, payment etc. This bloke in my opinion fits the bill.

Not talking about any personal gain. He put his oar when it was not needed. If he did it because of an outside influence then that is corruption in my book.

Do you think he did it for any reason other than thinking it was the right thing to do?

You see, I'm not sure I do believe that
 
Well yes I do, that's why I think he is a corrupt referee. Others may see it as an error of judgement and that's fair enough. I don't.
