Said it a while back, they will still somehow fuck up the semi-automated system. They may not but just based on how shit they all are from top to bottom, it’s hard not to feel that way.

Bloody hell that VAR call was a tough 1

 

[Ithryn Luin]

Honestly think it was correctly offside

Jesus! This was never the intention of the offside rule! Officious wankdom!

I hate var with a passion. It’s just draining any enjoyment from the game.

 

[Jam Tomorrow]

Kante is good at those snide kicks.

 

[HypnoticBlue]

Is that the 1st VAR f***up, and it was provided by English officials.
Teams will refuse to play if it’s officiated by the English, hahahaha.

Kante is good at those snide kicks.

Channeling the spirit of Dinho

 

[jollylescott]

When you look at the replay a normal speed, there’s not a hope in hell he was saving that. It was in the net before he barely moved.

Linesmen can't rule on anything, only advise. The ref ruled it out.

Eh? The linesman had his flag up. Taylor ran over to him and then ruled it out on the linesman advice

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

He let it go, he went by the linesman's decision after the fact when it wasn't a clear offside because he played it but because he may have interfered... He had to be told to look at it himself.

I agree. That’s what I posted too.

However, if they’ve had the conversation and Taylor has said that the player is offside and deemed interfering with play, then where can the VAR go? They could say they don’t believe they were interfering, but in the end it’s not a 100% wrong call on the field.
