VAR thread 2022/23

[Alan Harper's Tash]

But you've got plenty of time and energy to have ago at people who do?

I also note that your post was liked by one of the main posters on here that calls people cunts all the time.

Seems ironic that she thinks I call people names when she doesn’t it all day every day.

And yes, this is me calling someone out. She’s a vile poster.

Not at all. You’re an irrelevance, just a nasty one.

Bless, can you not take a different opinion to your own?

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Why is it that last night, we all managed to have a civil debate and now suddenly people are attacking those with a differing opinion?

What’s changed, apart from the people entering the conversation?

Thiago Silva commits handball with Ayew free to rin in on goal...

Extract from Law 12: "Where a player denies the opposing team a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity by a handball offence, the player is sent off wherever the offence occurs (except a goalkeeper within their penalty area)".

Atwell on VAR: Yellow!!!

The law seems incongruous. How can a goalkeeper commit a handball offence within their own penalty area?

Understand, but my point comparing it to how cricket (and rugby) apply it relates to the public seeing the replays whilst listening to the conversation between VAR officials and ref.

At the moment, football is a closed shop with Stockley Pk and the Ref being the only participants.

I don’t think it’s comparable really. In cricket and rugby league, the video official is sat twiddling his thumbs and only comes into play when the on field ref/ umpire requests he looks at a specific incident. To then turn his mic on and let the viewers hear his thoughts as he reviews it with no time restraints isn’t really that big an ask.

In football their is a constant four way open line between the officials at the game, which the VAR is listening to. He then joins in making it potentially a five way conversation when he wants to get involved. I really don’t think there’s much to be gained by hearing that live. It couldn’t be on the normal channel anyway. It would have to be on a special button, like the silly fanzone thing used to be. Not sure how many people would be interested in the constant chatter. That’s before you get into things like privacy and the inevitable bad language the mics will pick up.

Var isn't the issue it's the refs and the officials interpretion of laws and not applying them correctly imo
