I can remember the uproar on here and rightly so when Shay Given did exactly the same v us for Man City and the ref disallowed it. He ran into, Shawcross was it? You charge 10 yards into a player standing his ground and get a foul because you're a goalkeeper is basically the unwritten rule About time a ref/VAR stood up to this ridiculous protecting of goalkeepers coming off their line I am no fan of overprotection of keepers JM, but… There is a massive difference between Given colliding with Shawcross (who was already in the air and did not commit any foul or obstruction whatsoever) and the obstruction by the Luton player to enable his teammate to head into the net. Still angry about this one!!!… The ref saw it clearly at close range. It was an obviously legitimate goal but he pandered to Man City to give them an escape route to their inevitable defeat. Disgusting decision…right up their with the worst ever at Stoke, even more so considering the timing. www.premierleague.com/video/single/1610843?TAG=On%20this%20Day

Foul or not, it was horrendous goalkeeping. I’m glad Luton got the draw.

Lutons equaliser shouldn't have stood. Another low point for var. It's hard to see the point. Normally, the ref would've disallowed it. BUT he decided to leave it to var to make sure. And var somehow came to the conclusion it did. Therefore var is responsible for the wrong decision.
The Brexit of sport strikes again.

He’s there and told to make the decisions, not to let var ref the game for him. If he would have given a foul would var have overturned it as clear and obvious no foul?

Refs leave it to var instead of asserting authority. No car wouldn't have overturned it.

As blatant a foul as you’ll see. I get the keeper was weak but those of you saying he ran 10 yards into the attacker need their eyes testing.
Attacker only has eyes for the keeper, doesn’t attempt to play the ball and actively makes a move to block the keepers path.
I can’t believe how shit VAR is. How can they keep getting such blatant calls so wrong

That's not a foul for me. The keeper is never getting that cross, he's misjudged it, he's running underneath it and hopelessly into a luton player who just turns his back on him.

I just saw it this morning.
The Burnley keeper ran in to the Luton forward and went down like a sack of spuds.
If that's a foul we may as well all give up.

He was a cheat, like Given who was gave the ref a look of pathetic helplessness while falling to the ground. What made it worse was that it would have been 2 successive home wins with 10 men against Man City. In fact, after Beattie can on as sub, we were actually playing with 9 men. He petulantly strolled around with zero effort; the reverse of his efforts v Man City the season before. Stoke City manager Tony Pulis: "When it was 11 against 11 I thought it was a good game and we created a lot of opportunities, a lot of chances. "I've got no qualms about the sending off, but there were certain incidents that I am not too pleased with. "I am not asking for anything more than parity. "The goal in the second half is a good goal. There is no doubt Ryan gets up. Look at Kolo Toure's reaction - his head is in his hands and he is on his knees. "It is a good goal and why the referee has disallowed it I just don't know. It is very disappointing for us." news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/8510466.stm

As much as it would be good to see Luton stay up, it was a blatant foul on the Burnley GK.

Absolutely ...keepers are ridiculously protected as it is. I think many just expected a free kick as so often given when a keeper charges into an outfield player.

I’d understand more if the Luton player tried to play the ball. Even the player reaction suggested they thought it’d be ruled out. It is a blatant foul and more awful VAR.
