VAR - 2020/21

[Matt the Giant]

Probably have a wank soon

Which probably qualifies as "fan movement".

Won't happen unless theose in charge want it too.

What will fans do? Boycott, covid has diminished that effect, plus in tge UK fans are too busy taking cheap shots at each otger to porperly unite over any subject, though tge PPV foodbank campaign showed hope that cooperation can happen

It's almost ruined football for me.

I think we're stuck with it unfortunately. I hate it with every fibre of my being.

The fans that go to the games won’t be listened to, with covid they’ve realised people in the ground aren’t that important. It’s the global audience that pays a tv subscription which is the priority. Only when they stop tuning in will they look at getting rid of VAR.

Complete opposite mate,clubs want fans back, player's want fans back,and not just for financial reasons.
Hypothetical if no fans were ever allowed in any grounds,ever.
TV might love it,but sponsorship and other outlets would find another sport to invest in,
Plus how much would tv put there subs up,they could charge what they want,and then people with fk it off for good..
We seen it no long ago for PPV £15 per game,(I think it was).
As I said before I keep it VAR but it needs amending drastically.

Its on a par in popularity with the poll tax coming in under Thatcher.
But back then we didn't have a snowflake society so the masses rioted to protest against it (all to no avail I might add, you never beat the mafia establishment).
I could imagine protests against VAR today being people on 1 knee with rainbow coloured laces banging pots and pans saying "we dont like it, but we go with whatever you tell us".
A very different world these days, so we put up and shut up, and thats why there are so many changes today to the sport that was so beautifully untouched for decades while it was working class

The only way out will change is if the history clubs complain

 

[Mike Cledford]

What if when we went back we all turned our backs or something? No one wants it and it is ruining the game.

Do you think some sort of fan demonstration could be a success in seeing this farce off??

Or am I being delusional?

At 3am l would guess more pissed than delusional. ;)

I sympathise. Awake at 0310 yesterday and 0500 this morning so no catch up.
Perhaps its worrying about the way VAR and other factors are ruining football.
