Yorkie Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Despite being as vocal as anyone on here re the misery of VAR, I wouldn't actually rule-out there being a version of it that could exist and be worthwhile. I don't know what that looks like though, and I have absolutely zero faith that it will actually improve. Where my view is that it's current level of imposition should be dramatically reduced - the recent mood music has been suggesting the opposite; with refs communicating directly with crowds and what-have-you. So, for me, this is absolutely amazing news. At this point, I sincerely hope they go for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I was all for it but I'm 100% against it now, our game against Sunderland this year was the best of the season (for obvious reasons) but also because the game happened in front of you in real time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then rather than listen and review teething issues, they just seem to be doubling down on re-refereeing games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, the officials are a disaster. I’d rather they have less involvement in the game if they’re the disaster they’ve truly proved themselves to be. We should be limiting their involvement to the absolute maximum because they’re almost all incompetent Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't care about offsides where the margin is the width of a toenail. It's not what offside was originally brought into the game for. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack27 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) Will be hilarious when Wolves are the first team to be fucked over by a decision that would have been overturned with VAR Edited May 15 by Jack27 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

54 Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I really really hope that passes, as VAR ruins a hell of a lot of what makes football great, but in reality it's never going to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mondonewc Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 Shame they can't just use it for the purpose I believed it was created for, "clear and obvious", when it takes more than 30 seconds to a minute to resolve it ain't clear and obvious ffs. Then you get the 5+ minutes waiting for some decisions which is diabolical, and overall whilst I imagine statistically it's improved the % of correct decisions, it's hugely detrimental and ruining fan experience when you are scared to even celebrate now. Get rid for me without drastic changes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so typical really. All the corrected decisions just get forgotten about. Once this gets scrapped and teams start getting awful, painful and obviously wrong decisions go against them that cannot be reversed, then reality will hit everyone very hard.
