I have seen this footage many times before and remember the match at the time. There can be no other explanation for this other than it was a corrupt game. The United players knew what they were doing and seemed aware they have been given a free licence to foul.
This match was the moment I knew for sure that some officials were corrupt. I am not a conspiracy theorist and don't believe the entire game is corrupt but there clearly have been specific instances involving specific officials.
The fact that Mike Riley is in charge of VAR says it all. It is also interesting to see how complicit the broadcast commentators were (especially Tyler) in what happened during this match.
No one UK coverage outlet covered Neil Swarbrick entering the VAR room during a match and talking to the officials. Breaking their own rules on securing the room during matches.
 
well this is the crux of it.

Do we go back to when many perceive football as corrupt and being outraged by officials allowing players to dive with zero contact for penalty’s , allowing players who are clearly miles offside to score, allow players to get away with leg breaking tackles and off the ball incidences

Or do we find a way to use VAR without it being too pantomime, surely we can look at ways to change the laws rather than blame VAR which ultimately is just there for the referee to take a clearer look at what he missed.

I really believe we must continue improving VAR rather than binning it and going back to when football was ‘corrupt’ and the many farcical decisions that seem to have been forgotten nowadays.

I do stress I am not a VAR ‘lover’ I just think it can and should improve the game over time, unfortunately too many are in the mindset of being against VAR - even when it has (on many occasions) helped give the right decisions.
If you go back and read what I said earlier in this thread, a post that you "liked" regarding my suggestions, so have a read.

I can't see and neither do I wish for VAR to being thrown out altogether, I simply wish for it to be used "correctly" and consistently. Some hope
 
VAR would be a great asset used correctly. At present it is the same incompetent PGMOL employees operating it as those officiating at the actual games.

Sort PGMOL’s employees out and you improve the standard of officiating, leave it as it is and nothing will improve.
Simple as this.

The problem is with PiGMOL, not the technology.

And that's why i liked it.

unfortunately, people who are against it - don't want it to work, and even when it gets decisions right they are not happy.
 
When did this happen?
Leicester v Wolves

Bein Sports showed it. They had no sound. It was claimed Swarbrick was discussing a VAR call with Attwell.



Correction to my previous post. It was discussed on Sky. I was watching Bein coverage.
 
VAR would be a great asset used honestly and transparently by allowing the decisions to be miked up and heard by the supporters. At present it is the same corrupt and incompetent PGMOL employees operating it as those officiating at the actual games.


PiGMOL have clearly demonstrated their absolute resistance to the discussions between officials / or decisions being announced overtly and transparently . It works for other sports but not Football - what is their problem with the decisions being overheard by the spectators ?

PiGMOL is corrupt imo and uses VAR to influence the results of games.
