*** The official 2025/26 Premier League thread ***

Such a weird feeling this is. I mean we hate Arsenal. Don't like West Ham. They both hate us. We are West Hams Cup final wheras they're our 3rd rivals at best. Both us and West Ham are fuming at the bias towards Arsenal from officials whilst many of us Spurs fans are delighted with what happened, and laughing at West Ham there but still hoping Arsenal slip up somehow.

Just all very strange.

Agreed. A lot of West Ham folks assuming they are now down. If we don’t beat Leeds and they can beat Saudi Sportswashing Machine, the Chelsea became then has huge pressure.

A lot has to come together for them, but crazier things have happened. Win tomorrow though and it’s a massive step.

This is our Palace game, win and the pressure on those West Ham players will be unbearable.

Need two wins. West Ham could easily win their last two, they are a decent side.

Winning tomorrow would be huge. That’s all we should be focused on.

Yeah, I don’t look at the way West Ham are playing and think they’re guaranteed to lose their next two. Anything could happen at Saudi Sportswashing Machine.

If we want to be a PL side, we have to be able to beat a Leeds with nothing to play for at home. Simple as that. Everton too. But it ain’t over till it’s over.
 
The FA and FIFA have to clamp down on what is acceptable and what is not at corners. How come two Arsenal players are clearly holding West Ham players and yet that’s ok? And yet a West Ham player holds an Arsenal player and the goal is ruled out??

It was a foul on Raya but do we really ignore all other fouls?! How come some weeks goals are ruled out for grappling in the box, sometimes penalties are awarded, and yet other weeks, nothing happens?!

Where is the consistency?!

I think that there needs to be clear guidelines. Otherwise how can anyone know what is ok? Even if those guidelines then say no holding at all. We just need a consistent set of rules. As it stands, it’s a mess.
 
I’ve been banging on about the officials and PGMOL being bent for a long time now. And I’ll continue doing it.

PGMOL is bent.

The officials are bent.

These decisions have happened SO MANY TIMES this season that it simply cannot be human error or basic incompetence. To me it is inconceivable that there can be such a lack of consistency and that totally different standards are being applied to different teams without external forces being at play.

It certainly seems like it. Arse have had too many of these decisions going their way for it to be a coincidence. It may not be a conspiracy among refs, but the narrative around Arse finally being able to win and all the pressure that entails, I wouldn't doubt that having gotten to them.
