Dont penguins make black and white binary calls?Hang on. Haven’t the VAR folk been telling us that offsides are black and white binary calls?

There are many things I do not like about VAR but the majority of them relate to how the officials, especially the English ones use it, usually to favour certain teams.Everything is wrong with VAR even before you get the crooked bastards using it.
The BoltonBollock we had yesterday fits that description. It's like watching a pickled onion blowing a whistle and trying to run.![]()

Is this the reason the majority our refs are slapheads?
The equipment is just not accurate enough to give those sort of decisions. It all depends on where the frame is frozen. Officials should be forced to take account of this technical margin of error (up to 20cms apparently) in making any decisions. It is clear that VAR is being used incorrectly in England. It could be corruption or incompetence. With Mike Riley in charge either is possible.Hardly a full on proper moan as we played well and won. But for our disallowed 6th goal yesterday, if the VAR offside line had been used on the Burnley defenders outstretched hand like it was for Bamford a few weeks back, that goal might have stood. Again inconsistency in the way VAR is implemented.
Here's a detailed expert analysis of the technical flaws of VAR from a camera operator. In fact it's worse than I thought. Apparently because of the relative movement of players and camera frame speeds the margin of error is up to 38cms. So none of these tight calls are correct. They should make allowances for the frame speed. The way VAR is being used is creating "fake football."
Our players should invest in some 'grass' green boots - there are no laws (at present) stopping a player wearing boots the same colour as the grass and therefore it would be very hard to draw a line making the player's toe offside.Why are we not surprised .
Mike Riley fucking football to aid corruption .
It's been amended loads of times since then, from memory I think it's generally been introduced at World Cups (clear gap became level .etc) and generally in order for MORE goals (benefit to the attacker), what we're seeing now is just shit. So many goals ruled out nowadays for being about 2 inches offside! How can an attacker be deemed to be trying to gain an advantage by being an inch offside or for starting his run 1/1000 of a second too soon?The offside law was intended to stop goal hanging and was introduced in 1863. It is no longer fit for purpose if VAR will insist on drawing lines on pictures.
Or, as in the case of Aguero vs spurs in the CL, be offside by a heel when he was heading back towards his own halfIt's been amended loads of times since then, from memory I think it's generally been introduced at World Cups (clear gap became level .etc) and generally in order for MORE goals (benefit to the attacker), what we're seeing now is just shit.
