Former Premier League referee Mike Dean failed to intervene on a major VAR call because he didn’t want to cause his friend Anthony Taylor any ‘grief’, he has revealed.

In a remarkably candid admission, Dean said he made the “pathetic” call at the climax of the 2-2 draw between Tottenham and Chelsea last August.

Cristian Romero pulled Marc Cucurella’s hair seconds before Harry Kane’s 96th minute equaliser, and Dean acknowledged that in the heat of the moment he made a bad choice not to suggest on-field official Taylor consider a sending off offence.

“I missed the stupid hair pull at Chelsea versus Tottenham which was pathetic from my point of view,” Dean told Up Front with Simon Jordan.

“It’s one of them where if I had my time again, what would I do? I’d send Anthony [Taylor] to the screen. I think I knew if I did send him to the screen … he’s cautioned both managers, he’s had a hell of a game, it’s been such a tough game end to end.

“I said to Anthony afterwards: ‘I just didn’t want to send you to the screen after what has gone on in the game’. I didn’t want to send him up because he is a mate as well as a referee and I think I didn’t want to send him up because I didn’t want any more grief than he already had.

“Anthony, he is big and bald and ugly enough to know if he is going to the screen he is going to the screen for a reason. If someone pulls their hair now it’s dead easy. It’s just a brainwave by me, a really bad call by me, and it kind of affected me as VAR going forward.”

Dean’s remarks underline the human frailties which have often undermined the new technology. He was subsequently stood down from the next Premier League games and later decided he did not wish to continue as a video assistant referee.

“Probably I missed a few games because you get taken out of the limelight,” he added.

“That was a major error. If they don’t score from the corner it is not as big an issue. But I knew full well then I would be stood down the week after. I asked to take a bit of time off because it wasn’t for me.

“I used to get in the car on a Friday and was dreading Saturday. I was thinking, ‘I hope nothing happens’. I used to be petrified sitting in the chair.”

 

 

Potvrda stava koji promiče PL navijaštvom već dugo - sudijama su prioritet sudije & očuvanje sudijskog autoriteta, jebe im se i za sport i za takmičenje i za igrače i za trenere.

Pa jbt. Engleske sudije su sada na gorem glasu od engleskih sudija

Luk So i Malasija povijedjeni neko vrijeme, pretpostavljam da ce klinac Fernandez dobiti priliku i pretpostavljam da ce je maksimalno iskoristiti jer je veoma talentovan.

 

Stvarno je mali Škot isti Hazbula:

 

Chelsea in the last few hours have made enquires on Liverpool striker Darwin Núñez. 

We understand #lfc are very relaxed about the situation. 

cfc will need to submit attractive bid for Liverpool to start talks.

Potezi očajnika

Citi pazario Dokua iz Rena za 60mil€ .

Ajmo taj Kudus, majku mu pa da prestanemo pevati " Otiš'o si Deklane, ostala je tuga" 

Spakovao hettrik sinoć.

Izjavio posle tekme da misli da mu je ovo poslednja utakmica za Ajaks. 

Ima da se usreći kod vas…

Mnogo je bitnije da se mi usrećimo s njim.  

 

Creative machine jbt, 8 asistencija na 37 utakmica prošle sezone.

 

Poređenja radi KDB je upisao 16, Salah i Trossard po 12.

 

Bruno je neck-and-neck sa Perišićem, Mbuemom, i Gibs-Vajtom iz Foresta.
