... none taken, infact, a point well made - if you disturb the hornets nest you must expect to get stung ..
OK good - so we agree that during 2 separate years - 1 CL tie and 1 entire season, Liverpool were grossly favoured. Now it could just be coincidence. But it's a pretty big dataset, so surely you would have to agree there is some chance that there was systematic bias?
If that is the case, why is it so far-fetched to think that there is some systematic bias in the implementation of VAR (in addition to a liberal dollop of incompetence).
... uhu - it was only a matter of time, right? Haven't seen your opinion on VAR though, just get him up against the wall.Sorry mate, you destroyed any vestiges of credibility with this gem
So a football team turning up to a football match in an official vehicle is disturbing a hornets nest? Mods get rid please.
If only they had looked on top of their own police vans!Distinct possability , seeing as they haven't arrested anybody despite their " best efforts " to apprehend the culprits .
Go and light some fucking candles la... happy to go - but again, you have taken the metaphor out of context, so one more time, just for you - metaphor equates to me (stung) - Blue Moon (hornets nest) - get it?

WTFindeed, so far there have been some seriously dubious errors, but not to the sole benefit of Liverpool, or Man Utd, and not to the sole detriment of Man City
Spuds lost 13 times in the league last season - hard to beat you say!Sorry mate, you destroyed any vestiges of credibility with this gem
Spuds lost 13 games last season in the league = hard to beat you say !!...in the context of the debate, it is a point about who benefits directly as opposed to who benefits indirectly - Spurs have benefited directly due to VAR intervention - Spurs, as we are both aware, are a tough team to beat and, apart from Arsenal, are probably most likely to pose any kind of threat to your title, considering you are in agreement that Liverpool will also pose a challenge - it is another perpsective on who challenges and, more to the point, where they end up at the end of the season - them gaining an additional point might not affect yourselves, might not affect Liverpool, but could play a part in a top four finish, for example - and this is the point I am trying to make, VAR has, and has the capacity to continue to affect the whole table, because, for me at least, VAR isn't just about Liverpool and City.
