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

[BlueHammer85]

One day there will be a whistle blower and they will blow VAR and the bent premier league apart.

How long do we have to wait for this day?

 

[BlueHammer85]

Still in favour of VAR @BlueHammer85 ?

Would this have been given without VAR?

Would this have been given without VAR?

Hasn’t your argument always been that VAR will give the decisions that the on field ref missed?
Seems pointless otherwise.

Would this have been given without VAR?

It SHOULD have been, and there are no doubt examples of such decisions being given pre-VAR.

'No more clear and obvious errors' they said.

Narrator: "they lied".

Agreed.
But I’ve always said they’ll get it wrong time to time.
No matter how good the officials are.
I can accept that as long as they always look at ways to improve and learn.

Looking to improve?

How long has VAR been in now?

It's gone BACKWARDS.

VAR decision. Good one for a change.
Nigeria score but brought back for a penalty to South Africa.
Gone for 2 nil to one all in the space of of a few seconds

The only thing they have learnt is how to fuck the whole process up.

We've now got nearly 8 officials overseeing matches and they still can't get obvious errors right. Even with the help of replays.

When you break it down it's around one 'mistake' every match week.

I call BS.

I hope at least 5 of them were in dipper matches and denied them x* number of points.

*when we win the league by x +1 the tsunami of bile will overwhelm the Western hemisphere........ and make it even more enjoyable.
