Correct.

Put idiots in charge and you get idiotic decisions.

You’ll never get decisions everyone agrees with - which is why VAR is a load of bollocks.

Other than NUFC fans, there are plenty who don’t think that was a foul (commentators included).

Well, no - VAR is the issue.

Football decisions are subjective. You’ll never have unanimous agreement for some of them (as we’ve just seen).

But by stopping the game to re-watch a decision and then make a decision that is still questionable, it’s fucking pointless.

A professional referee looked at that replay and decided it wasn't dangerous play. That's the problem with VAR in regard to decisions like that, we have some of the worst refs in the world looking at the replay. Ref's trained by one of the worst refs we ever had in Mike Reilly.

VAR has no chance if you favour it with idiots like him in charge of it and our refs.

When is football going to accept that it's officiating at the highest level is shit.  VAR is just obscuring from having idiots as refs.

As I’ve said above - there are plenty of people (not NUFC fans) who don’t think that was a foul. Commentators included in that.

VAR is the problem, you could put the worlds greatest referee ever in front of it, it’d still be a problem.

You can’t try and make exact decisions on subjective decisions.

I have been saying this for years.

Don't understand why Attwell at the very least didn't tell Taylor to have a look at the screen

Have to say it's totally baffling, that's the easiest decision to make. Let the on field ref have a look to decide.
