Var debate 2019/20

[mardon85]

Somebody will probably have answered this already but at all grounds (barring the 2 'iiiiiiiiiistory boys) the VAR decision would have been shown on the big screen (with the official VAR footage).

Is it as silly as it wasn't a requirement due to the lack of a big screen and have only now just realised that this causes s lot of scepticism?

For the record, VAR is an absolute shambles and I am not remotely trying to defend their incompetence.

They don't show the replay in the screen.

They don't show the replay in the screen.

They don't show any VAR replays, do they? Just the message about the status of the check.

 

[mardon85]

Correct yeah the match going fan is in the dark.

The VAR decision was made in less time than the guidance issued to referees by PGMOL.

Footage of the VAR review wasn't broadcast during the match as it always is.

Footage of the VAR review wasn't made available to broadcasters either during the match or subsequently, otherwise it would have been all over the television/newspapers for the past two days.

PGMOL have responded to requests for an explanation by providing a written statement but didn't also feel it necessary to provide any video footage, which they absolutely would have in their possession if a check had taken place.

Salah may have been onside, who knows, but it certainly was not checked by VAR.

The man on the Clapham Omnibus would conclude - Guilty as Charged

The 20 clubs will meet Mike Riley, the head of referees, on Thursday, with a concerned group of chairmen and chief executives calling for answers over the inconsistent introduction of technology that they feel is damaging their league. [@TimesSport]

A group of Premier League chiefs will demand changes to what one has described as 'the car crash that is VAR' and raise the possibility of scrapping the technology mid-season. [@henrywinter | @martynziegler]

There is growing discontent among the Premier League's top officials with the implementation of VAR and their bosses’ instructions on how it should be used. Source: “There’s concern among referees that they are the ones who are being made to look like fools." [@pjcadden]

Scrapping it is our only hope of winning the league

If the refs are as corrupt as some think, it surely won't make any difference.

I think the damage is done,they have made it clear they want a dipper win for the brand,trying to make up those points will be like clawing at sand,they will keep them ahead now they are there

Of course it will make a huge difference,no more refs in a bunker doing what the fuck they like
