VAR (PL introduction 2019)

I can see VAR making things more corrupt at this rate. Ruling stuff out for certain teams and ignoring the same incidents for those not favoured.

That will be the only use for VAR. I can't believe people can't see it. It just gives the officials a second chance to manipulate the game.

Walton is making a complete cnut of himself.
So if you’re in an offside position going toward the ball, but your team mate is fouled, you get a penalty.
Can’t see that being applied FOR us.

With Var we have had tonight and 2 penalties against Burton reviewed and not given despite being penalties. Then you have Ajax having a good goal ruled out by Var against Madrid and Taylor on Var not giving 2 penalties to Chelsea after review for blatant shirt pulling and ripping and holding by Smalling last weekend. Then the delay tonight after our 1st goal where they were desperate to find something to rule it out. It will be used to protect certain teams

Beginning of the end of the game

With that 1st penalty in some ways it was the ideal situation for VAR in that the ref can see it for himself with his own eyes, get a word in his ear to say you may want to look at it again and then review it on a monitor.

However, if the fookin monitor isn't working then how can VAR be brought into it. Surely it has to be the case that he then says I'd like to look at a monitor but as it's not working I'll stand by the original decision that I made with my own eyes. Otherwise it raises the question of who made the actual decision and who is reffing the game.

Well from the English version I saw the lines across the pitch weren’t even straight. Then again - look at the numpties working on it - Chris Foy is involved - he couldn’t run a bath.

I remember a few in the WC - the pricks in the van looked at things twenty times - and got it wrong quite often. Let’s face it you could give Lee Mason or Jonathan Moss a month and they’d still get it wrong much of the time.
