VAR Discussion Thread



Apologies don't get the points back do they?
It's almost every week now. Football is going to kill itself. It's clearly being manipulated to achieve certain ends. Arsenal have literally got away with murder all season. Red cards not given, no penalties against them, fouls on keepers not given that have resulted in them winning numerous mstches. Perfectly good goals ruled out against them when one of their defenders or keeper goes down like they've been shot. Im sorry but it's corrupt.
 
Another key decision goes in Arsenal's favour. After the Gabriel incident with Erling, then West Ham, where fouling was going on all over the box — and prior to Pablo's undoubted foul on Raya, which you'd swear looked like Gabriel and Saliba's fouls on keepers all season — now this.
I don't believe in conspiracy theories, never have, but by heavens I'm being tested in my scepticism.

The laugh is, they are not hiding it. They dont care. They need arsenal's name on the trophy to keep advertisers happy, overseas viewers subscribing and the money rolling in.
2 games in a row totally bent decisions to ensure they win.

Bent, Cheating, call it what you like, but don't call it a fair game ?

Simply, no words can cover over the fact that the rules are not the same for everybody. Match officials and VAR control the outcome; if you are not in bed with them and you're the most hated club in football, that is a red card all day long.

But because of fake emails and City taking them on and challenging the system over the 115 claims of cheating, we now have to play by the 2nd rule book

Even the Arsenal players knew it was a red card, just look at the face of Havertz, he knows that's a red card
 
Honestly thats the one thing that i dont envy about the PL the joy of not really allowed to not go off your nut when you score due to this bollocks time and time again .............how many years did the game get by without this shitshow week after week ??????

Havertz has these challenges in his locker.
He only tries shaking hands with the fouled player if he thinks it'll help his cause.
He expected to be sent off, as did Arteta that's why he subbed him immediately.
Abit like Milner on Bernardo a few years back. Klopp subbed him straight away as he knew he should of sent off.
Common denominator in these 2 instances, both redshirts and oh yeah Paul Tierney

The trouble is that an awful lot of people are very happy to see the corruption in plain sight
 
Refs used to do this shit. Now VAR rubber stamps this shit.

That tackle will be explained away as perfectly legit according to subsection whatever of whatever rules. Tick! Everyone did their job correctly and arsenal, celtic, utd are all happy .

It all coincided with the rags suddenly becoming successful. The old first division was gone, and in its place, a new shiny one called the Premier League. Add to the mixture that unscrupulous Aussie bastard, Murdoch, and his satellite TV, and an 'understanding' that this new league should have new winners every 6 years or whatever it was, and it was the perfect storm for the corruption to begin and the red cartel to immediately benefit from it.

Wait until next season. The rags haven't been given the Prem for a long time. See what Webb and his cloak-and-dagger cronies have in store for fans of non-red cartel members...it'll be fucking Armageddon!
