How about we sign some defenders?

I do agree that the refereeing was awful, but I wonder if anything will really change until all clubs do something together. Although it's hard since most clubs will only complain when things go against them and not when they get benefited (including sometimes my team).

They’re asking for the var audio which makes sense tbh.
They should always be available, same when we benefit from bad calls like vs Celta

Anyone who watch la liga knows that something need to be change... 90% of the games the main character is the referee for awful decisions.. Its incredible how bad they are and they get away with it every week. I dont know the solution, but something need to be done.

How come everyone agrees that La Liga refereeing is terrible, but Real Madrid are bad guys for trying to do something about it? Other clubs should join in and push change.

This sub be crying about refs 24/7 but a club makes a formal complaint after getting shafted by multiple referee decision and it's the club that's ridiculous.

They are spot on on the refereeing board being a clientele apparatus steering towards traffic of influences and away from accountability and technical excellence.
It won't really be fixed because only God knows the layers of corruption there are to this. It's just another political defect people must comply with.

They’re asking for the VAR audios of several key incidents, it’s not particularly weird. Every club should do this

The club wants the VAR transcripts, something perfectly reasonable in this situation.

By the way the refs for Atletico's Copa del Rey game have been changed. The new refs being considered? The holy trinity of Cesar Soto Grado, Gil Manzano, Hernandez Hernandez. The pressure is real. Even if this doesn't result in changes it will tilt the league in Madrid's favour
Atleti should be ready for shit calls. And they are playing the haramball merchants Getafe.

This club is utterly spineless. The double standards they don’t just enjoy, but demand, are laughable.

Finally something everyone in Spain can agree on, complete reformation of the refereeing system to stop it favouring your opponents.
Now just to agree on how to do that and who they favour… should be easy!
