Lush Vlad Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 I thought VAR for the Saudi penalty was a bit of a farce. Massive dive and minimal contact. The fact the ref didn’t give it and they overturned it made it even more ridiculous. Justice that they missed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just coincidence that in those instances the ref got it right. I know every fan likes to think the refs are out to get them but the way each club goes on, can't be all of us can it!

Kid Icarus Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) I don't think of decisions going for or against teams unless they're wrong tbh. I don't think correct decisions going 'for' or 'against' teams is worth much. Edited January 6, 2023 by Kid Icarus Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/25608023/major-change-premier-league-rules-var/ Quote Football lawmakers Ifab have given the Prem the green light for refs to communicate their calls to those in the stadium. It comes following a successful trial of the new procedure in Mexico and Portugal. Like in the Women's World Cup and Club World Cup, the refs are expected to be mic'd up inside stadiums. And after consulting the VAR monitor and agreeing on a decision, they will then declare the basic reasoning over the PA system to the crowd - such as identifying who committed a foul or was offside for example.

timeEd32 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Hopefully not like that. There's no doubt this is an (attempted) improvement though. The explanations you get in the NFL are far more useful than PL referees being mime artists. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Oh fuck off. Absolutely fucking shit. A truly worthless addition that serves only to heap further pressure on the officials and add to the whole bloody pantomime. Ridiculous, pointless, rubbish. The Referee Show, sponsored by football.

Dr.Spaceman Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) Mic'ing them up is one thing, but blasting them out over the stadium's PA system is a completely different level of insanity. Edited January 30 by Dr.Spaceman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) I've always liked it in Rugby. Think it was a great addition. That's not hooked into the PA though is it, Just for those watching on TV? Not sure about that so much. Edited January 30 by toontownman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I hate it in rugby. Almost every try gets checked and the bureaucratic back and forth between the ref and the vj about angles and what they can and cant determine are minutes you'l never get back that were almost impossible to squander as badly on anything else. So bound to happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
