VAR thread 2022/23

Presumably this will prove to the conspiracy theorists that VAR isn't specifically trying to stop City winning the league?

VAR Lee Mason FORGOT to draw offside lines for Brentford's equaliser

EXCLUSIVE BY JAMES SHARPE: Christian Norgaard was in an offside position when he crossed for Ivan Toney and the goal would have been ruled out if the VAR lines had been drawn.

Its still not fit for purpose and it has countlessly shafted us than our rivals.

The article is based on Chris Foy saying he doesn't think the lines were drawn. Has anyone official said anything?

The technology works, the people using it are utterly incompetent.

I’ve just watched the Leicester game. The goal chalked off for offside is an absolute disgrace. Killing our game.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Absolute shite, ruins the game. That‘s before it gets it wrong!

Not fit for purpose unless you are using it to give alternate decisions.

Wait ‘till you see the rest of the games. That was pretty much the best decision of the day.

Wrong offside call goal in Palace v Brighton.
No offside call on Brentford goal.
Brentford goal ruled out was very soft as well.
Poor officiating in the Leicester game.

Terrible once again.

After all the shit that was spouted about how great the officials are after Rashford being offside as well.

Quite clear that this lot running it are not fit for purpose and it's got significantly worse since Howard Webb came in. It's not just VAR, it's all of the officials.

What about those conspiracy theorists amongst us who think VAR is designed to stop us AND Mason is so incompetent he can't even do that right?

Accuracy doesn't matter when it comes to fun and VAR stops fun. Its the entertainment killer akin to something with Michael Mcintyre in it. Its a fucking nightmare dressed up as a wet dream. Whether we suffer more than others (we do) or whether we benefit greatly from now until the end of the season (we won't) will not change my mind, which has been the same mind it has been from the start. Technology is great, provided it improves the thing with which it is connected with. This does not improve it. Fuck it off. Fuck it off forever.
