Ref Watch

[dadnlad]

Agree Gudo was down for 2 minutes plus, the ref spent a minute talking to players over a corner. Spent another minute talking to their player over a foul, which he walked away from. Plus the keeper was wasting time from minute one.

he added 3 minutes it's laughable

Huh?

Anyhow, check back in 4 years time. AI is going to make offside calls instant and spot on, out-of-bounds calls 100% accurate and in the longer term, even make subjective calls (hand ball and the like) instant and uniformly applied.

I'll give you this - VAR for our matches have been shit awful two games running... what do I blame for this?

Conspiracy? Criminal intent? - not at all.

I blame incompetence and an evolving but still fucked up (but improving) application of VAR (I'm a huge fan of VAR).

Creatures crawling out of the primeval sludge evolved faster than var and its certainly not improving.

and just how much money have you won betting on their incompetence

It's taken a giant leap backward this year for sure :-)

An infantile dig - and way off mark. AI is clearly going to help our sport.

Not an infantile dig at all .

Where is the evidence that I should be able to view to confirm that you are talking sense. And what is this wonderful all seeing system that will make everything perfect ?

There is always " it will be better " claims with VAR since it's introduction , and guess what, it has become a tool for disallowing goals for a players foot being centimetres " off side ".

How the hell is that sensible or realistic ?

Check back in 4 years. Either you are right or I am.

I base my predictions as a software engineering professional with a keen interest in AI and by following AI developments. I might well be wrong in projecting a 4-year timeframe for the improvements I state - but I think I'm in the ball park. Within an order of magnitude (meaning maybe 10 years instead of 4).

Eventually what I've predicted will come to pass - it's inevitable - the question is when? - how soon? And not at all if.

We are not talking about Golf here are we?
