VAR - 2020/21

[southamptonblue]

If any one would like to come on and defend var after last nights games i am all fucking ears...?
Cancelo ?
Non-penalty for City?
Cavanni goal?

Since you asked...but shouldn't need to

Cancelo....plays for city
Non penalty you answered yourself
Cavanni....plays for scum.

It's hardly fuckin rocket science ;)

I do not believe these referees could flick a switch and suddenly get decisions correct if they wanted to. Bent or not , they are actually shite, and always will be. There are a dozen after the "Uriah Rennie "award. They are a laughing stock throughout Europe.
The crime is that SKY, Premier league, FA, and the media generally do not wish to do something about it.

Mason , becoming a specialist has brought the pantomime to a different level.

It used to be that a retiring referee could choose his final league game. The fact that Mason's final game was at Old Trafford should settle any remaining argument about where his allegiances lie.

Seriously, what more evidence do we need? Is this not yet another case where Riley and his bent mates stick the proverbial two-fingers up at us whilst simultaneously robbing us of our money?

It's fucking demoralising, that's what it is.

I'll bet most of us have loved the sport since we were old enough to get a basic understanding of what the game was all about. We've all at one time or another played in the streets or on the local playing fields, stayed up late to watch MotD, collected stickers and cards etc, organised our whole lives in order to watch/play the game.
Yeah, jumpers for goalposts, all of that. Avidly reading 'Shoot' and any other football-related magazine from back in the day.
Football was our lives: we ate, drank and talked football whenever we were awake, and probably dreamed of scoring the winner in an FA Cup Final in our sleep.

But now look at what has become of our game. Look what these faceless men in suits have done to the honesty and integrity of our national sport - stolen it and sold it to the highest bidder. Took them a good few years, but they've finally achieved what they wanted all along...stuffed their pockets with our money and Royally fucked us over in the process.

That's why I say demoralising: because that's exactly the effect these bastards have had on all of us that love the game.

I felt demoralized when i heard that last night.
Manager after manager said Mason is not good enough, so they give him a top job.
SKY The media, The premier league, the FA continue to be silent on the mess our officiating has become.
They are a laughing stock in Europe, a bunch of unfit, fat old blokes in black.
Sick of it.

City fucked over by VAR shocker.

We now know that the commentators can hear the exhanges between the ref and Stockley Park. What I want to know is whether the people at Stockley Park, including the "match commander" can hear the commentators.

You can bet your bottom dollar that the TV producer and the VAR match commander are in constant comm's.

Just watched that Cavani goal, out of curiosity. First of all, its a great goal, Foden had a chance to go for a first time lob yesterday but dissapointingly didnt go for it. But that was a shocking call from VAR. Clearly no touch on the ball by ratface, but obviously couldnt for the life of them chalk it off, so made up some phantom flick on. That along with the shit in our game and Chelsea's non penalty, theres just no defending the system anymore. For every good VAR call, there is a shocker, and its all down to the bloke in the studio making shit up as he goes, the system is fine.

How can the system be 'fine' if it's wide open to blatant cheating?

Like saying the plane is fine but Mr Bean is the pilot. Therefore the system is NOT fine - which is exactly what they wanted.
