While we can argue the toss back and forth on who's really in the driving seat, I'll confess I thought they'd already played twice 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never seen anything like that in my life. Linesman needs to be banned or sacked. The suggestion that Robertson should be banned it ridiculous. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm behind the linesman on this one all i saw was Liverpool players constantly surrounding the officials crying their eyes out for 90 minutes whenever a decision wasn't given their way. So if the players speak to the officials it’s ok to elbow them in the throat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slightly touches his arm, but he gets a yellow, there's no way he's getting a retrospective punishment for that. The linesman's reaction is bang out of order, and I'd expect it might be a career ender What right does Robertson have to get in his face , he’s a entitled baby.

No right at all, and I agree much more needs to be done to tackle dissent, I'd be much more tough with yellows and refs for not backing the **** off when the ref says they're done, and have zero tolerance to crowding the ref. But the lineman's assaulting him. His career in England is done IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robertson looked like he put his hand on the linesman’s arm, who then shrugged him off, probably didn’t mean to elbow him on the chin. People are blaming Robertson because he touches the linesman first, and he is also a bellend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 That elbow thing goes to show why players go over the top and roll around. If he’d have done so there action would have had to be taken and maybe the lino sacked at half time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't just speak to them do they, it was a constant tirade of abuse over 90 minutes. You don't need a PHD in lip reading to see what was going on. If someone invaded my personal space by sticking their head in my face swearing their head off I'd instinctively brush them off as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 I know the commentators are suggesting he touches/grabs the lino’s arm but I can’t see it personally. It’s certainly not holding or grabbing it hard. If he’s been abusive then he should get him carded, there’s no scenario where it’s ok to send an elbow towards the players head because he’s talking in an undesirable way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davkaus Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 "Shoulder barges"? This is the most damning angle IMO. Completely over the top, there's no justifying that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me it looks like the linesman is walking away from Robertson, probably over to the refs. Roberstons touches his arm and the linesman shrugs him off, probably didn’t realise Robertson was a a close as he was, and it’s grazed his chin. Being blew massively out of proportion, it’s being made out the linesman has done the people elbow on Robertson.

Davkaus Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 I think an elbow to the jaw would probably be considered an unnatural silhouette for a "shrugging off". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

est1874 Posted April 9, 2023 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Robertson needs more than an elbow tap to the chin, shame he didn't get it. If the linesman faces any serious punishment for that it's a joke. Clearly accidental as he's shaking off Robertson's hand/s which should not have been there in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
