If we had VAR then

[Rollo Tomassi]

Seeing as we just played Chelsea and they trot out that we haven't won since 1994 then the Terry equaliser in the 3-3 draw in 2016.

I mean that was an utterly appalling decision only the 2 yards offside and 2 minutes after the game should have finished.

I'm just a bit too young to remember it (it was the season before I started getting taken to to the match) but one I've often heard about from other Blues who remember was away to AC Milan in the UEFA cup in 1975. Gary Jones was fouled yards inside the area and the referee gave us a free kick yards outside it? We lost 1-0 having drawn 0-0 at home.

Steve Nicol's foul on Graeme Sharp in the 86 FA Cup final. Clear penalty and we may well have gone in at half time 2-0 up instead of just the one.

It was the same ref, Alan Robinson, who refused us a pen in the 84 Milk Cup final, by the way.

No doubt was sent bullets in the post before the game.

When the ball was given over the by line in the Goodison derby when Cahill scored. He made his feelings very clear, it was just before half time.

Hansen handball on the line in the 84 Milk Cup final all though VAR wasn’t needed for it…it was daylight robbery

If that was nowadays the biggest protests probably wouldn't even be about the handball decision..

It was. But they'd have had 2 VAR reviews for those 2 offside goals, both looked thisclose. I reckon the 2nd one would have been given, so, a 1-1 draw would have been likely.

Collina.






Enough said.

They’d have had clattenberg as VAR… no way we weee getting through that one. The RS whinged their way in and we took the recoil to the face

I know we all have memories of significant moments in our past but I ask what you think would have had a massive change in our season/history that you you think was a travesty of justice

Few examples
Hamilton FA Cup semi final against Liverpool 1977?
Bolton V Everton 1997-98 (cleared off the line)
Villa Real ....Ferguson disallowed goal
Rapid Vienna.....Gray goal from Mountfield head cross
Luton Semi......possible foul on Stevens for Luton Goal
The Man City handball the other season
I know there will be many more but blatant refereeing decisions against us or for us in the past that VAR may have conclusively sorted out or should have

Most people don't pick up on the fact that seconds before, Southall had been fouled by a Bolton player...

I think the incident is mostly irrelevant anyway, we'd have been 1-0 down with all the 2nd half to play, so we'd have pressed for an equaliser, rather than be content with a 'decent' point.
