VAR It starts tonight!

[tunstallhill]

It’s a video generated by a computer to confirm yes or know.

Like all the other decisions.

The % of correct decisions via var has increased

The owners and multi million deals are on the line.

People moan about time taken but say nowt about the 30 mins or so in a game when absolutely nothing is happening

I’m for it, I’ve giving the reasons why time and again. That’s my whack

goal line technology and VAR in its current format are so far detached from each other, your argument makes no sense. with the goal line technology, the ref finds out instantly if its over the line, and if not, play carries on, there is no adjustment to the game, no delay, no questions, no controversy, no fans cheering a goal for 2 minutes only for it to be rules out. its clear cut and instantaneous. the exact opposite of VAR. its a stupid comparison.

VAR and goal line technology are apples and oranges

 

[Shandy drinker]

the man city v spurs non pelanty and the madpies v spurs non pelanty prove that VAR is useless

 

[Mackem00]

Imagine comparing VAR with goal line technology.

 

[DufraisFTM]

Still shite!

 

[Maravilla]

Not against it on the whole but even for pretty clear cut decisions the process takes far too long. Arsenal had a goal disallowed for offside against Spurs and it was blatantly correct on the first replay but it still took them about 90 seconds to come to a decision.

Theres plenty emotion when we get beat by an offside goal that a poor linesman failed to spot

Maybe - but to be offside by 1mm after scoring, celebrating and then having it ruled out 2 minutes later is utter nonsense and will stop people going in the end.

I think the problem with offside is where to you draw the line?

It's easy to say tight ones should be still given as a goal, and others that are offside should be disallowed.

But who decides this?

Where does a tight call then become less of a tight call?

They should just abolish offside. It would make football more accessible to women as they'd be able to understand it better.

Wasn't expecting that reply!

There is no chance of that happening whatsoever!

Doubt it. Everyone will get used to it eventually

Literally nobody seems to understand this and I don't understand why. If people applied their brains a bit there would be a lot more understanding about VAR.

Maybe there should be another line on the pitch maybe at 30 yards and you can only be offside beyond that line.
