Sterilising the game just like AI is sterilising most of our lives. Has its uses but it’s killing the game imo

As I’ve said before a couple of weeks back, VAR isn’t effective because it’s used inconsistently and even when it is used, what they’re looking for is also inconsistent. Remember this 5cm tolerance bollocks?

But but if it means they get more decisions right...

 

[CostadelRoker]

It’s f***ing shite and needs binning

 

[Dick Fitzwell]

Takes the passion out of the game and it’s not used consistently

 

[Chatty83]

Add me on the list for get rid.

I would have happily accepted that penalty decision IF THERE WASN'T VAR

See my post from 6 years ago...

Means nowt if they don't know the exact millisecond the ball left his foot.

Was it just me that thought it hit Evanilson lower on the arm before it hit his shoulder?

But VAR was a key part of getting us in the Premiership if I remember correctly!
It will always have a place in my heart.

Currently hell-on at Burnley - VAR again

 

[silas80]

Difficult one, looked like handball from one angle but not from the other. I would have given it tbh.

Just seen it ruled out on my score app. They had one ruled out to go 4-3 up too.

Either justified?

I think if today's massive VAR decisions were involving some of the bigger clubs, then there would be massive uproar.

It'll just get swept under the review rug with it being us and Burnley aggrieved.

Not happily surely

Thought it grazed his hand then forearm then shoulder.

Also thought Tavernier was close to offside but not sure if that was even checked

Dunno marra.
It'll be done to death on MOTD tonight no doubt.

Yeh, partly fuming

..... at least I can accept referring cock ups but for someone (in the VAR box) looking at that in replay and slowmo, what the absolute fuck

Finally just seen our non-pel, fuck me ragged that’s insane! Good to see PGMOL have doubled down on the decision post match!
