Sir Joel Inton Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I would usually agree but VAR was bought in to give correct decisions and on this occasion, West Ham combusting, being relegated and their disgusting fans chewing their way onto the pitch with dildos is absolutely the correct decision.

VAR, semi-automated offside, the handball rule just off the top of my head for starters English referees don't like VAR. They didn't want it before it was introduced and would like it to go away. They want to go back to a time where they were the infallible gods of the football pitch with no one else being in a position to tell them that they've fucked up. I'm sure that half the problems with VAR would be fixed if it taken out of referees hands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbandit Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 I’d have thought they’d love it, they may complain about the extra pressure on them but ultimately it gives them more power and it’s clear that a lot of referees love the power Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have former players covering VAR rather than the referee's mates group. Former players wouldn't care about the feelings of the ref on the pitch and would probably be better at gauging fouls.

The crux of the matter is that it doesn't matter who is in charge though because it's going to be based on human interpretation so there's always going to be "errors" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not a bad idea in theory, the issue is that if former players' punditry is anything to go by then many of them don't know the current laws of the game and would have little desire to learn or understand them, instead defaulting to a "how it was in my day..." Might be fun for the neutral though! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casey Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 (edited) Which one of yous shagged this refs wife. What an absolute cunt. Thiaw is pushed and is not looking at the ball when his arm hits it. I can't blame Big Joe for his blowup though worried he'll be proper radge 2nd half and get a red.

Colos Short and Curlies Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Got to add on the stopping the game when we were on the attack so he could get his Comms box reattached. It wasn't not working, it had come loose - hold it on your hand until the game goes dead man. Also don't think Big Joe committed the foul for the free kick (but accept debatable), based on what we've seen recently it's not a penalty due to the challenge on/by DCL.
