VAR Discussion Thread

Apparently it took 4 minutes to review Newcastles 2nd goal yesterday as the semi automated offsides system was "down". Best league in the world don't you know

What about all the other times that Erling has blatantly been hauled to the ground yet the impeccable VAR failed to highlight it to the onfield incompetent? The above was the exception not the rule. Why, wasn't the penalty given against Newcastle when Phil was fouled in the area or the handball outside the area in the FAC Final There as many missed or not reviewed wrongly than corrected by VAR
There is also the fact that refs will not give a decision and ask VAR to look at it to see if its reviewed until we get to listen to all communications we will never know VAR is a crutch that they rely on

The rules were applied subjectively before VAR and still continue to be with VAR. It's unconscious bias at best, and that's giving them the benefit of the doubt.
