Var debate 2019/20

[Blueknows]

Nonsense like this actually hurts City when it comes to discussion about VAR.

It’s public who is running the monitors. It was Graham Scott.

I’m fuming today but Jesus stick to the absolute facts. That’s all that matters and the corruption was there for all to see today.

Ive always rated Graham Scott as a ref an all

 

[Cobwebcat]

We score more goals than everyone else so I suppose it’s bound to work against us but it’s got to be very clear and obvious not keep looking till you find anything.

 

[asahartford1]

Honest I won’t come in your mouth.

Anymore patently untrue sayings? ;-)

They can only give what they see.

 

[Ohrodneyrodney]

VAR will be used to screw us over in big games (it has already) and then one VAR decision will go in our favour when we're already 13-0 up and people will will still say " see see VAR is fair its a good system...."

 

[asahartford1]

its no good getting one when you are 3 or 4 nil up

Why not that is when we got a penalty or two

 

[Platt Lane Bern]

VAR - right or wrong, it has now already hugely affected the dynamic of Football for us, the Match going Fan.
Late decisions like today with One Set of Fans goading the Other is very close to inciting a violent reaction and only time will tell if people are going to be able to control themselves in the Heat of the Moment.
The Passion in those moments I fear could easily turn nasty and really don’t feel anyone has considered this possible outcome.
Maybe, us Paying Supporters are expected to just get used to it..
Maybe,like many suggest People will stop attending Games..
VAR Good or Bad - it’s changed our experience already

 

[lazerblue]

If this shite carries on no one will celebrate a goal anymore they'll all just sit there looking at the screens hoping for the best. The game died today!

 

[blueinsa]

They can only give what they see.

And to fuck if it’s not what the rest of the country can see......

 

[warringtonblue]

Why not that is when we got a penalty or two

Because at that score, it doesn't influence who wins the game, unlike todays

 

[Blue Mist]

I was going to read 40 pages but you know what, I can't be arsed, just like I am getting with football. I can't be arsed going to watch the likes of Oliver ignore blatant penalties and VAR not to tell him. The media have been saying all week that Tottenham had to stop City 'for the good of football'. They couldn't manage it so the officials stepped in. Absolutely bent and it is ruining the game.

All of you that support VAR can go and fuck yourselves.

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

VAR part of the problem but the new hand ball rule is the bigger error.

I think that has arisen because it adds 'legitimacy' to the whole VAR concept. We have bumbled this technology into the game where no one can give you a clear explanation of when, where and how it will be used. It can give a clear and definitive statement as to whether a ball has flicked an attacking arm or not, and the operators can point to a 'positive' improvement in the game. Why do we not get a penalty if the ball 'flicks' a defenders arm. Selective use is only part of the problem. To disallow a goal for what must be one of the most mind-boggling changes in the LotG and not apply the same technology for a blatant penalty which, if The Whistling Wanker saw it is blatant cheating, and if he didn't, why didn't the VAR wallah shout down his fuckin' earhole that he's let a pen go begging. Get the ball on the fuckin' pen spot, Oliver!

 

[Chi-town blues]

Var is the only way to stop city .

 

[Hart of the Matter]

It's not VAR that is the issue - it is how it is being used.

So it is VAR then that is the issue......

 

[asahartford1]

Because at that score, it doesn't influence who wins the game, unlike todays

I know , that is why we get a penalty at 4-0, and not blatantly as at Cardiff at 0-0 last year.

 

[paulchapo]

Oliver is a hideous referee who rarely gives us anything. There is probably a rizla paper between him and Atkinson as to who is the bigger shithouse.

 

[ballinio]

Very very sad day .

 

[55yr old teenager]

I wonder if the VAR guys will be so meticulous in reviewing Liverpool and rags goals like they are with us, guess we'll see.

No need to guess mate can tell u know will they fuck!!!

 

[city2]

So two games into the season and we have been fucked over twice, does var look at all the goals scored, nothing said about our penalty appeal.

 

[hammocity]

Is that true? I mean about real time?

Swarbrick said so, only real time replays, no slo mo’s

 

[Churchlawtonblue]

So it is VAR then that is the issue......

I agree. It's being used by incompetant people.
