“It’s supposed to be a secret but we can hear the deliberation sometimes “?

Now the real question is can var hear them?

We're not trying to prove FFPR is illegal though?

Maybe after winning our case.

The way both Neville and Spitty bang on during a VAR check I'd say....?

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

They literally make it up as they go along.

I was inclined to suggest after that goal that you couldn't make it up, but yer right, that's exactly what they do. How many goals have been disallowed with an identical handball to that one! The clearest indication that VAR delivers re its parlous application of the LotG is that no one has the faintest idea which way the decision is going, and that, I think, is the greatest indictment of the arbitration of the game.

I don't actually mind that because they can then pass on the explanation. What I don't like is the idea that var officials can hear the commentary team or pundits who could be adding influence to the decision.

I reckon so as that **** Neville is always trying to influence them.

That would be my issue too.

Say we score a spurs away type goal at Klanfield. Spitty will be screaming VAR should disallow it.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

What are the handball rules ?

We don't know until VAR rewrites them. And then it can't be regarded as definitive.

Genuinely have no clue what decision is coming at times. That kind of goal has been ruled out consistently for as long as I can remember with VAR to the point I thought that was a 100% given decision. VAR continue to baffle everyone by giving it. Maybe the rules have changed? I really don’t know.

He did but it isn't a secret.

Plenty of commentators have said during broadcasts that they can hear the VAR discussion.
