    Absolute bollocks!

    There was time to right the wrong before the free kick. And even if it hadn’t been, that’s such a huge “fuck-up” it would be waaaaaaaay less of an issue had they stopped the game after.

    There were four people in that room that could’ve fixed a blatant, obvious mistake and they chose not to.

    Ivan Toney is out for breach of gambling rules, I do wonder why people believe match officials aren’t susceptible to do the same.

    I don’t buy it. This was too bad to explain away with incompetence.

    Just for the record I don’t blame spurs here

      The only amazing part is that they admitted they made the wrong call. At some point all the bad calls, referees assaulting players, … adds up and you can no longer deny there is an underlying issue.
