VAR Thread - 2021/22

Any business worth its salt would not allow the Taylor situation to happen. (referee a City or rag match.) That way no allegations of corruption can be made. If you are doing interviews or looking at contracts you have to declare an interest to prevent accusations. Typically though Pigmob and the premier league think they are above all that.

Taylor is 100 per cent a United fan from birth and so are all his family. That said I think he usually treats City reasonably because he overcompensates to avoid being accused of bias by all his family's neighbours in South Manchester.
Usually..... but not yesterday.



When it mattered.

All I'll say is that these WHU fans obviously haven't watched many of our games over the past 6 or so seasons

Do you not think these sort of opinions are replicated across all fanbases ? I don't think ever we'll reach a point where fans are satisfied with officials and don't think the FA/Powers are against them

regardless, I do concede there's genuine gripes against VAR and how it's used and i live in hope it will always improve

Since the CFC game when SideshowBob should have gone, and he ended up sending off Sergio and Ferny he's been a little more circumspect rather than suspect in our games, but why do refs put themselves in a position where the waving away of a pen is overturned. Without VAR he would have shafted us yesterday, and the fact that VAR gives it and he doesn't isn't just down to 'not seeing it' à la Arsene, or thinking the stoner wasn't one, it's, my favourite, "I'm fucked if I'm giving City a pen at this time in the game'!
 
the powers are secretly conspiring against every single team.

Of course they are (replication of opinions), but that's the game plan. Some people need to open their eyes and view it as a whole not just from their single team experience.

I, and many others, believe that the VAR is in place solely to manipulate and manage individual in-match events which are still, and seemingly always will be, entrenched in the age old bias and favoritism we've seen for decades.

If you simply take a moment to think about it, shouldn't the introduction of this technology have brought about more consistency in decision making? Has it achieved this? The answer is a resounding no! It's done the complete opposite.

Why is this the case?

Because VAR is just a tool which is used to allow/disallow goal and give penalties, not for "justice", but for "event manipulation" and corrupt product marketing.

Favoured teams win (not the game, just the specific event), unfavored teams lose (again, not the game just the event), and everyone else gets a mix of for and against in order to hide the bias behind a sea of "inconsistency" in order for idiots, who only witness one game in ten, to roll out the tired old line of "you win some, you lose some" or "the refs have a hard job" - because that's exactly what it is for their team.

We, as City fans, have an almost unique experience in this regard. We've seen it from within the "mixed bag" and now we're seeing it from the top down.

It's as plain as the nose on your face if only you desire to look.

You, unfortunately, have no desire.
