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

I heard today that Atwell will officiate at the Euros this summer. Everyone on here especially the pro VAR mob are happy with that decision I guess?


So absolutely no accountability whatsoever for incompetence in PMGOL as we already knew.

Hahaha really? How did UEFA come to that conclusion? He's a diabolical ref.

Premier League referees Michael Oliver and Anthony Taylor have been selected to officiate at Euro 2024.

Their colleagues Stuart Attwell and David Coote will be video assistant referees (VAR) for the tournament.

Oliver has been paired up with assistant referees Stuart Burt and Dan Cook while Taylor has been partnered with Gary Beswick and Adam Nunn.

I guess PMGOL have put him forward. It's an embarrassing call imo.

Yep the man that thought Rashford wasn't interfering with play at OT and overuled the linesman is on VAR for the Euros!

No i don't, there's right decisions every fixture list, loads of them. i rarely come on here and point them all out.
The odd one deserves to be highlighted and why not ? it's a VAR thread and like all threads it's good to have balance. unless you're only happy to exist in a echo chamber of 'its all corrupt' 'watch them screw us over' bla bla.

That would be good :)

Even Samuel in his "shocked" piece in the Times said he was a poor referee but that doesn't make him corrupt :D

Edit: He actually said "He's not very good"

Either way he's not good enough. But with no accountability, Webb thinks he's doing a great job.

They’ve not selected him as a ref. He’s going as a VAR.

He’s been a regular VAR in European club tournaments this season, so presumably he’s impressed UEFA sufficiently in that role.

It's embarrassing that he has been picked. If Webb had anything about him , he would have sacked Atwell.

Leeds scored an offside goal last night and won 4-3. VAR would have corrected it.

Or would it............. ;-)
