VAR - 2020/21

Completely agree, Mike Riley really needs to explain this because it looks corrupt as f#ck

Where are the VAR lines?

Yet again we dont get to see them?

I’m not sure they even considered off side, which I would have thought should be first. Christ it was pretty simple, would have restarted the game 5 minutes sooner and prevented me wasting 5 minutes of my life watching the shite on view

The clue is in the coverage. despite Sky and everyone saying offside at the time, not once have we seen the lines to prove he was or wasn't.

Why?

Its because it either isn't fucking working correctly which wont be a first or it isn't being used as many claim half the time or they are just covering up yet again.

I sometimes shout "fuck you VAR" when we score one of those goals that VAR cant touch. It's my first thought every time we score

Same here

Interestingly both Sam and Ole have called it out today, agreeing with each other re offside and it will be interesting how PGMOL try and spin this one out.

Var for diving penalties and goal line tech nothing else leave the game then to the officials or what's the point in having them will make celebrating goals come back and ease pressure on refs

Once again I'm watching a good game and then var pops up to spoil my enjoyment.
For some it's bent, others say it helps certain teams or penalises others. I don't know about conspiracy theories or or perspectives or even the fucking basic rules anymore but I do know var is ruining the game.
If the quest for unequivocal right and wrongs consists of me and everyone else sat at home watching a ref watching a telly after being told to by some other blokes watching a telly to watch it over and over then the game will slowly die.

It's a bit like the scousers moaning they have a minus five turnaround on var decisions (in your favour plus one, against minus one, if you get my drift).

The point is they moan like it is some kind of injustice. Truth be told all it proves is that without var the referees would have fucked up 5 times more in their favour than against.

Yes var is shit but that's mainly down to how it's used.

What a mess. Clear offside but they overturn the foul decision. Got to question, not for the first time, as to whether the kit was working

Riley is busy mate. He is in the process of moving office from Scouseland to the Trafford buccaneers.
