VAR (PL introduction 2019)

[Machiavelli]

Being used for mistaken identity too! This is one of the four areas it will address, the others being penalties, goals and red card incidents!
V useful in our games as the two silvas do look alike!

And Kev and Zin
And Fern and Vinny

Is that account believable?
I only ask as I’m sure I’d seen a post on here where they’d tweeted “the powers ruling football have decided Man Utd will win the FA Cup” or words to that effect.

I was thinking about that tweet earlier.

The blog has been very credible in the past. They helped the club in 2012 with their analytics which saw a certain bent scouse ref disappear to the states and another move to the MCC.

I think they’ve deleted the tweet as well. Probably best all things considered.

That'll explain why I couldn't find it.

I had a look earlier, I’m not a Twitter user so I wasn’t sure if I was searching correctly?

There's only so much help they could give the rags tbf, they really are shit.

Thanks Mat.

Good to see that Liverpool are not in either list.

Therefore, I'm putting them iiinnn theeee..............Against list!!

:-)

 

[dennishasdoneit]

don't you think this is part of the problem? No fucker knows the rules or criteria? The confusion is just untrue.

Exactly!

Just looked around and apparently it was Chris Kavanagh of Manchester that overturned the rags red card today.
Another quick look shows me that he's never reffed a game involving a Manchester team.

Scary. What a mess.

 

[Barcon]

Scary. What a mess.

Funny that there is no mention of this anywhere.

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

According to the premier league site Kavanagh is registered with the Manchester FA which is presumably why he can't ref us or the rags so why is allowed to be in control of VAR in a game involving the rags?

On an issue which var is not supposed to be adjudicating?? Why did he stick his big red nose into the proceedings when Atkinson saw exactly what happened ? Why did Atkinson allow himself to be over ruled?
Mike Dean(on another note ) makes me laugh.just bare faced cheek.banned by pigmol from reffing liverpool matches ...after a ...ahem 32 game dodgy run...leaves liverpool(moves house)...quietly acts as 4th official in the liverpool v Bournemouth match a few weeks ago...just what is going on?
Then pops up at forest v ipswich. Leaving forest fans i know spitting his name in rage...Dean really does live an Interesting life.

I seem to remember the anti-VARers complaining that VAR would remove all the controversy from the game and therefore put an end to interesting discussions in the pub about dodgy decisions (which is way better than the right team winning...). I guess they got that wrong.

Great video on the BT app at the moment. An Aussie ref is miked up and the audio is played with the video. Shows how VAR could be used if our refs were willing to be transparent.

Replays of VAR incidents will be shown to fans inside an English football stadium for the first time during this weekend's FA Cup semi-final matches. Fans will witness the same different angles and slow-motion replays enjoyed by the VAR officials. [via @SkySportsNews]

And they will still come to wrong conclusion

We won't get that, instead it will be the VAR decision followed by the "definitive video clip".
