Don't forget he booked raz for putting his hands on someone but not the pen,how can he get it wrong in the same game,because he wanted to and not the letter of the law

Yep it's his subjective view ultimately. So objectivity goes out the window which VAR was supposed to secure and take the personal subjective decision making away from the referee . But it actually does the opposite . It gives the refs more power than ever before. If it isn't totalitarian I don't know what is

It’s really pissed me off but there’s no point in everyone looking for faults in VAR because we know it’s wrong and it will not change anything but piss us off more . From now on we must not let it get to VAR and just take our chances . Other than that I thought we were spot on and outclassed a quality spurs team

But you are arguing that it’s there for clear mistakes. This was a clear mistake, as can be seen from multiple angles like VAR... this is where it gets messy as someone in a darkened room has fucked us over once again, and believe me it will keep happening. Open your eyes blue

we all belive the ref made a mistake but if that person in the darkened room doesnt then it aint ever going to change....

now we are down the the fact that whether we trust the people in the room and thatsa slightly different argument...it depends on whether you (or anyone) is on the side of the conspiracy theorists or on the side where people believe that is just rubbish.

The goalie deserves some credit but yeah, we should have scored a few.

And we will, I'm not worried the slightest.

VAR LOOKED AT IT AND SAID NO,SKY AND EVERYONE WITH EYES SAID IT WAS AND THE VAR REF NEEDS TO BE STRONGER
Hope that helps

Or less corrupt

1 point safer from relegation.

I genuinely have no desire to go Bournemouth next week now. I was at West Ham last week where the Sterling offside ruined the celebrations for the next goals even when VAR benefited us. Today I didn’t celebrate until after a few seconds.
I know it sounds daft but there’s more to football than seeing correct decisions. If I just wanted to see correct decisions then I’d stay and watch it at home. VAR just leaves me numb. Pre var if you got a decision it was a joy and if it went against you you’d have a moan and wait for MOTD to see if it was right or not. Everytime there’s a goal I don’t want to just stand soullessly until a man 100s miles away decides the outcome.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Just for sake of debate. What would have happened if the ref decided in the interests of the real game to overrule var and give the goal? Who has jurisdiction?

I know it would be his last game, but you never know - one day they may have some common sense and backbone.

 

[argyle]

Can't wait until there is an identical incident with Liverpool but it isn't disallowed.

 

[Barcon]

And we will, I'm not worried the slightest.

Neither am I.
