VAR Discussion Thread - 2023/24 | PL clubs to vote on whether to scrap VAR (pg413)

Easier than if it didnt exist? Did the referee indicate a penalty? Did he fuck. Corruption at the top of PL and Pigmol is what needs to be called out and stopped.

Its supposed to be there to correct clear and obvious errors.
If that wasn't clear and obvious nothing is.
As I say, just another tool to corrupt things further.
What is your explanation for VAR not insisting he goes and looks at it?

Michael Salisbury was on VAR I think. Born in Lancashire hmmm

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Broadcast the conversations. They'll never do it, because refereeing has never been objectively rule-based, it's always been about subjectively managing the game. I imagine a lot of conversations happen where they clearly know something is a foul but let it slide for whatever reason.

Remember Howard Webb grinning in the seats at our FA Cup final and muttering "they're going to give it" to the woman next to him about the Grealish "handball".
Why the fuck did he look so happy about it?
Cos he's a rag loving ****

The ref should be accountable and the ref should have the benefit of s simple video replay. We've had replays in football since black and white tvs ffs. It'd just take a few minutes for him to look at a stream on a phone in his pocket.

Remember the Ederson challenge where he actually got the ball. Today Really ??

 

[mrbelfry]

What's the key difference here between this and the Ederson one given against Arsenal? Yes its a foul but they are never given (except that one time).

Things should be slightly different for goalies because they use their bodies differently.

If United's midfield keep not turning up I don't think even VAR can get them top 4 this year

The Forest fan on YT saying it wasn't a penalty.
Imagine.
My.
Surprise.

He won't be bothered enough people will have viewed it to pay for his next holiday. Job done.

 

[SWPISHOME]

Shocking decision. Doesn't surprise me. Let's be honest, Not one single person on here thought that VAR would give that penalty.

The Rags will get a Top 4 spot that's the height of it. I don't care what anyone says, They haven't improved AT ALL under Seven Hag. He has spent millions and getting away with it.

Another result for them tonight that will paper over the enormous amount of cracks.

Fatty in midfield is also completely shit and he will start week in week out.

Cheating twats.
