You were quck here with an example of var , as usual , lol. You should be asking what is pigmol doing , they have fucked up the whole game from top to bottom
Yeah well it’s wrong in my opinion he‘s affecting play or attemping to interfere,the game is over so it’s not gonna do anything now,just felt they were desperate for arsenal to get over the line ..It’s an attempted block, not an attempted pass. You might disagree with the law, but it’s how offsides work.
Fair enough. It’s still in our hands though. :-)Yeah well it’s wrong in my opinion he‘s affecting play or attemping to interfere,the game is over so it’s not gonna do anything now,just felt they were desperate for arsenal to get over the line ..
It is Alan,and nice to see us come through a game where we weren’t totally at it,and didn’t concede that first shot leading to a goal ..Fair enough. It’s still in our hands though. :-)
Newcastle 0-2 City Yaya vibes yesterday. Tense and fatigued but got the job done. 4 more to go.It is Alan,and nice to see us come through a game where we weren’t totally at it,and didn’t concede that first shot leading to a goal ..
Not sure how often I can repeat myself to you.
Any form of officiating will get things wrong. There will ALWAYS be the odd fuck up with VAR.
It’s good to highlight when VAR can be good for the game and also debate the pros and cons and what changes can be made. That’s what this forum is for and what the majority of posters do. Unlike yourself who clearly just wants an echo chamber of ‘it’s all corrupt’ and get in a personal spat.

Its is corrupt.
I think that is a rather naive take, if I am honest.Or like we saw pre VAR , refs simply do not give the most obvious of penalties like that today from Rice - this is what we put up before VAR and this is what will happen when/if VAR is binned. Absolute joke decisions.
He doesn't have to make a decision anymore. Var will do it for him.

In the same match Trossard trips a spurs player in the box and nothing is given. Not sure if var even looked at it
edit* i cant watch the vid but am presuming it shows the Trossard sneaky trip?
Corrupt in favour of Man Utd and Liverpool ?
You don’t think your general position of zealously defending VAR no matter how many times it collussally fucks up may be clouding your judgment when it comes to how VAR (and the “clear and obvious error” threshold, which was again in play with the incident @stonerblue has brought up) has impacted on-pitch officiating?80% of comments underneath say no pen. he did go down very late after accidental trip so not sure there was enough contact to warrant a penalty and not enough for VAR to overturn on field decision.
I made point earlier, pre VAR blatant pens were being missed so i don't buy the fact that Refs don't award them because they're protected by VAR.
The bookies

There aren't hundreds/thousand involved.fair enough. so hundreds/thousands of people all involved in manipulating results.
have you got any proof ?
But you don’t think the referees and assistant referees decision-making process—or the frequency at which they make calls, contentious or otherwise, on the pitch in general—has been impacted by the current iteration of VAR?I have criticised VAR for many things throughout this thread, i'm no lover of it - just prefer to have Refs with tech help than make decisions solely by themselves even when they do fuck up from time to time.
There aren't hundreds/thousand involved.
Just one or two people in a position of influence is enough to tip the scales in favour of unscrupulous/illegal bookmakers.
What I find funny is you seem to have dismissed any such corruption in a multi-billion dollar industry, when evidence tells us corruption to some degree is pretty much a given at that level.

'Accidental' trip ??80% of comments underneath say no pen. he did go down very late after accidental trip so not sure there was enough contact to warrant a penalty and not enough for VAR to overturn on field decision.
