VAR thread 2022/23

[Stephen230]

Go back a couple of years to its initial implementation and Liverpool score roughly 15 seconds against us after Trent plays basketball in his own box. Deemed a new phase of play, ….bollocks.

That had nothing to do with phases of play. That’s just muddying the waters. They decided, rightly or as I’m sure most City fans would think, wrongly, that it wasn’t handball. If they’d decided it was handball, everything that happened after that would have been irrelevant, no matter how many phases of play there had been before play was stopped.

...11 people have voted 'Yes' and 16 people have voted 'No' since I put the poll up three and a half hours ago.

I mean, I know people think Bluemoon is dominated by a small number of power users but surely we can agree there are more than 27 active users on here?

If you had separated the Scum and Scousers then I for one would have voted yes for the scousers and no for the Scum.

That'll be next phase of play. ;-)

How many have even seen that you added the poll?

 

[BlueHammer85]

yep, and they are right . what I am saying is it will never affect your season either way .

Relegation ? European spot ? Of course decisions can affect any club - very condescending

That's where the "active users" designation comes in.

I am sure we'll soon get the ole Bluemoon contrarian push in voting as people read the debate in here, which will see @BlueHammer85 do a victory lap. ;-)

 

[BlueHammer85]

Because it should be 100% accurate

You’ll never get 100% accuracy in any system - and even if there was , fans would still debate and disagree on the outcome

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

No I do not. Thats ridiculous, it was easier before VAR!

I do think it is being used to give them a helping hand though and that comes from bias/fear/need. Seems obvious to me, and its human nature. Put enough people with the same interests in charge of something and they will flout the rules for the common good, and it wont even be seen as illegal.

My theory depends though upon there being a larger number of lfc/utd fans than any other club.

The result will be reviewed by VAR and the outcome will be "whatever @BlueHammer85 wants".

Exactly - if there’s a conspiracy to benefit Liverpool/Man Utd with the use of VAR - they’ve cocked it right up. They can’t even give a dodgy penalty to Liverpool this season from a trademark Salah dive
