ToonArmy1892 Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 You can just guarantee the first time VARS gets used in a game involving us, it's going to go against us and we get a goal ruled out, or get a penalty given against us Nailed on.

sbnufc Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 https://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/news/newsid=2594607.html?iv=true&iv=true Paris Saint-Germain – Manchester United FC Penalty award - 90' The VAR, after checking various different angles available to him, recommended to the referee an on-field review following the penalty area incident. Given that the referee did not recognise the incident clearly during live play (referred to as serious missed incident in the VAR protocol) an on-field review was conducted. Following the on-field review, the referee confirmed that the distance that the ball travelled was not short and the impact could therefore not be unexpected. The defender’s arm was not close to the body, which made the defender’s body bigger thus resulting in the ball being stopped from travelling in the direction of the goal. The referee, therefore, awarded a penalty kick. All the above-mentioned decisions were made in full compliance with the VAR protocol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCONA Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 Absolute bullshit. The ball was blasted at him and had a trajectory towards the moon. Mcmanaman was almost laughing about it on the commentary, if it was awards against man u they'd all be furious. VAR is absolutely awful Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The referee had 2 mins to check the incident, if he can't see the distance to speed in that time then he shouldn't be in the job. There's no point in var if it's not going to correct the clear and obvious errors, would rather see left it as it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're in agreement with the outcome, but you and I seem to be blaming two different things. I don't think it's the technology's fault here, and VAR, like all tech, can be used for good as well as bad. Clearly the incompetent refs are the issue. I'd say let VAR expose these frauds, over time this will FORCE the refs, FA and UEFA to improve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteV Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 It struck me when looking at that glorious picture of the crowd following Perez's second goal, this is the kind of thing that VAR is going to take away from us. And I don't just mean because it was offside, and hence would subsequently have been disallowed. Even if Rondon had been onside, they would have referred it to be checked. So you would have had those few seconds of total joy, then the ref would have been like, hold on lads, we're just checking VAR to see if it counts. So everybody puts celebrations on hold while they check it for a couple of minutes. Oh, it's alright, start your celebrations again. VAR will undoubtedly result in more 'right' decisions being made, certainly in respect of offside anyway, so in that sense it's difficult to argue it's a 'bad' thing. But, IMO, it's definitely going to take something away from the matchday experience. Even if you're just watching on the telly. Those spontaneous moments of sheer joy in the aftermath of a goal, so well captured in the Perez picture, are going to be diluted, and that is to the detriment of the game.

To be honest the V.A .R has not done the game any favors here in Australia . Seems to be just as many bad decisions.

SteV Posted March 11, 2019 Share Posted March 11, 2019 I can't believe any NUFC fan doesn't want VAR like. My point isn't really about whether it's going to benefit NUFC particularly (although just because we've had the rough end of decisions over the past couple of seasons, and would have theoretically benefited from it's use, doesn't necessarily mean it's going to play out like that going forward, but anyway). It's more about what it takes away from the game as a whole (from a fan perspective). Perhaps we shouldn't care about being joyous in the moment, during a game. Perhaps we should all just be happy afterwards that the correct decision was made and we can all agree on that (unless it involves a handball decision obviously, which is a complete shambles at the moment).

If there’s a chance of an offside/foul/handball in the build up then i always hang fire in case it gets disallowed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
