Aston Villa v Fulham match day gathering

[Rigadon]

Looked a pen on Watkins. BT just glossed over it with a couple of piss poor replays.

I thought it was a penalty. But not a clear and obvious mistake. I would be happy if VAR was implemented like that, but consistently.

If that is Man Utd at Old Trafford, it's a clear and obvious mistake.  But I think that's the point you are making!

No changes for either side

It was one of those where a toe on the ball means the ref has an easy excuse to not give it. Watkins was still getting to the ball and keeping possession without the contact but for some reason that never gets considered for teams outside the top 6.

Those poor bastards…not considered for teams in the top 6 either! 😉

Yeah, I realised that as soon as I posted it, but you know what I meant.

Fulham much more up for it this half.  Need to get another goal to dampen that out.

This is what we want really, if they start pressing higher and trying to up the tempo it creates gaps for Watkins.

Buendia has lost the ball lots today as well as made some sublime passes / touches.  Also Watkins has been quiet so far.

Nasty cold you've got there.

Fulham started a bit better. We need to try and get out of first gear.

[Jon Crofts]

Needs a spark from someone or I can see this ending in tears

Has the ref gone home?
