VAR (PL introduction 2019)

[typicalcity...]

The var chant for a throw in from wba fans haha

 

[IWasHere]

Yep, bet there will be no VAR on every corner with Smalling pulling players shirts. Same old refs on VAR will still only see what they want to see

Exactly. Doesn't work in Germany apparently and I can see why.

Think Managers should be given 3 calls in a game and refs unsighted/ unsure ones..

Speed it up and give fans some interaction on the screens was a good call by @markbmcfc

 

[cleavers]

United and Liverpool fans, and players are licking their lips after what's happened so far

Just posted this in the match thread.

The point being, that the referee's can be told when and when not to use it, and I don't mean on air, during a game. It'll just be another way to f**k some clubs over while helping others. You call me paranoid, but once its widespread we'll see which teams get the benefits, and which don't.

As for the moment, if it can't be used in every game in a competition, it has no place at any of them, so early rounds in the FA Cup shouldn't be having is used, whereas, all 4 quarter finals then it should be used in them all.

I'm neither particularly against it, nor for it, but it needs to be honest, and consistent, and as it stands I can see another layer of inconsistency being introduced, when we already have enough, and for me the paying fan in the stadium needs to see it, and not just the armchair brigades who can see multiple replays anyway.

Trouble is you end up by extending the game even further (added on time) and will make the game even more scrappy.

Don't see your point. I can deal with scrappy.......I just want correct desicions. Think Wembley last year we had a perfectly good goal ruled out . Would have been in FA cup final . Think in Europe about 2/3 year ago where I think ottamendi scored two yards over line . Not given it was cleared then drilled back with interest . They had no option to give. Clown official on goal line gave F all. I just want right decision. Sterling and Sergio get some horrible treatment. Yet we hardly get pens....

No screens at the swamp, anfield and a few others I don't think

It's too time consuming and the bigger issue is refereeing standards in general.

 

[Thaksinssoldier]

I thought it was great.

No more crying guys. This is the price you pay to get shit right.

Yes, it needs improving, and the ref and VAR assistant should 100% be mic'd, and it looks like it's awful in the stadium, but it served it's purpose.

Yeah, Liverpool fans must be ecstatic, VAR's just got them into the 5th round...

Only if a decision that goes the manager's way doesn't count towards the three.

 

[blueincy]

Imho it should be the refs that make the call on VAR not a fecking panel about time these ****s had to answer for what they supposedly missed in real time on public display for fans and world watching it, lets see them cheat then...

Commentator talking over replays trying to convince you the decision was right when you can see with your own eyes its wrong just don't wash anymore...

Yeah no life lost on correct calls;-)

I'm with you... it's a lot harder once decisions are reviewed to give a blatant incorrect call. This will harm the Rags and Liverpool for me if it comes in. Hence why I think it will be shelved, citing issues, the FA have manufactured in its implementation...

 

[Irwell]

Yeah no life lost on correct calls;-)

Anything else would have been a rag plot. A filthy rag plot.

Lol.

 

[Machiavelli]

Has anyone mentioned 3 challenges yet? Waiting to celebrate a goal? Slowing the fast flowing nature of the game down? Lol

 

[Neville Kneville]

Why is Liverpool's keeper allowed to push Barry in the back with both hands, prior to him being penalised for offside ?

Can someone explain how it's not a foul & Salah's is ?

Here here. Salahs is not a penalty in a million years because he was never getting to the ball. He would never have had a goal scoring opportunity.

If Salahs is a penalty there will be a penalty shout on every corner kick and you need 4 VAR refs looking at everyone in the box.

So you expect the referee to be super human in other words. There's no way a ref can be in perfect position or at a perfect angle to see everything.
