Var debate 2019/20

[pudge]

Lads stop blaming var.

Var isn’t the issue.

The refs using it are.

They are deliberately trying to make it fail.

Singing “fuck var” only helps them with that.

Sing “we know that it’s fixed” instead and I guarantee it will suddenly stop this shite.

The actually technology has been proving to be lacking in being conclusive so yes VAR itself is a problem.

It’s not perfect and that’s why uefa didn’t touch it.

So the refs chose the less valid system. I wonder why?

Again, they want it to fail.

Nothing wrong with the tech there today.

From BBC live text commentary...


The appeal was considered not to be a penalty by the on-field referee. As a matter of course, the VAR checked it. We understand that, because this was a subjective decision, the VAR deemed that there was not enough evidence to overturn the original call and so stuck with the on-field decision.

It was always going to be subjective.

Conscious and unconscious bias will always f*ck City over when it comes to subjective decisions.

Well you can add me to the "it's corrupt" camp now. Was willing to give the benefit of the doubt but that Silva decision was as blatant a penalty that you will ever see and for them to turn around and say it wasn't clear and obvious is as bent as it gets.

 

[Skilly McRailnob]

the 2 NBCSN analysts both said it was clearly a pen.

 

[BosnianBlue]

what a fucking joke that foul on Silva wasn't penalty. Thy just don't give a fuck when it comes to cheating us.

 

[colorado blue]

I'm watching the game in a busy bar and didn't celebrate the goals. Just sat and waited to see if they would kick off again.

Same here, it’s ruining the game for me. So far this season has it done anything justifying having it?

Obviously,
camera & video equipment non functioning for crucial 15 seconds so no evidence available.

If against Salah at Klanfield it would have been given. Corrupt as fuck.

Seems i’m Not alone now .

 

[kaz7]

Well done PIGMOL,i have been watching football for 41 yrs and i have never felt this disconnected from the game

 

[city2]

Var and the bent officials will fuck us over this season it’s written in the stars, 3 games on the bounce ain’t coincidence.

What about a rag at the swamp, would he of got it?

The technology is universal to the league so just because there was no offside decision made today doesn't negate any issues with it.

It's not going to go anywhere because you think referees are sabotaging it. The officials themselves would be done for match fixing in that case.

 

[Damanino]

Wonder what the conversation was between Var ref and Marriner.

 

[spacecadet]

What about a rag at the swamp, would he of got it?

Most probably.

 

[SWP's back]

The clear and obvious rule means it’s absolutely pointless for penalty decisions. They should take that away from its remit or sack it off completely for anything.

 

[basokla]

Thread title needs changed from “VAR debate” to “VAR verdict”.

Corrupt as fuck. Sentenced to a lifetime banishment.

 

[@BluePhil8]

Fuck these ****s we will win it all again with everything stacked against us. Again.

Cheating bastards.

 

[deano ou812]

It’s alright lads and lasses, swarbrick will be spouting some bollocks tomorrow or Tuesday to the media that it was the correct decision again and VAR is fantastic and the officials using it are doing a brilliant job..

**unless it's Salah diving in which case it's a stone wall pen.
