VAR (PL introduction 2019)

[greasedupdeafguy]

Give me correct decisions and a slightly slowed down game over a string of bad decisions (for or against) every time.

No other sport is as influenced as heavily by poor officiating. For many it's because they've taken the steps to make it that way. You and many others may disagree, but I hardly feel crap refereeing is what makes the game special.

fair enough but it wont be populer

Fuck being popular. It's about what's right.

That was offside though, clearly. Not by much, but it was.

Was onside.

I watched the old FA Cup Final from 1970 (Chelsea vs Leeds) the other night, and at the first back-pass to the keeper I thought: "WTF are you doing"?

The first televised match after keepers had to use feet was a City game and the City keeper (was it Weaver) picked up a back pass and got away with it.

Without sounding too scornful about this, anyone who watches the recent failings on VAR and blames it on the system is a backwards thinking tool. If people can't see that what's not working is the continued incompetence of referees then they need their heads checking.

Spot on

No your just another city fan who wears a tin foil hat. Ive seen teams get some absolute shite decisions against us as well it goes both ways.

well i'm right, so you carry on wishing Ill on your supposed club in your wrongness

@greasedupdeafguy you still sure about VAR after tonight?

? Yep shit decision but we'll get a few throughout the season. Better referees would help as well

I've been heavily involved in testing VAR systems, and it came down to a two horse race. A system called Blind Pugh edged past the other offering entitled One-Eyed Jack!
