SCRAP VAR

[mahermi1]

Needs to be scrapped immediately, it's another fail safe for the big teams, when a referee can't save a big club var steps in. Corruption, I said at the time it was brought in what var would do .. I have not been proved wrong.

Whether it's corruption or favouritism towards the top teams, it definitely exists. West Ham and us today, not to forget that handball against City.

I remember which flicked up onto Baines' arm at Anfield from a reflection 2 yards in front that was given as a penalty. Utter farce.

I also remember this one at Forest in the Cup last year when it was said the camera wasn't in line so that's why he looks offside etc. No one saying that for ours today.

Worst one like that I can recall was Henrey chipped the ball up on to Davie Weirs arm when he was square on to him and about 1 yard away.

Have a look at our decision today if you get the chance.

 

[Lee Smith]

Absolute catalogue of dodgy VAR decisions today. Probably the worst day for them since it was introduced, and that’s saying something

 

[RomanReigns]

Scrap it

Bin it

Chuck it

Burn it

Slap it

Kick it

 

[Mozza1987]

Just seen the goal disallowed for West Ham earlier and it's absolutely laughable

VAR will bail us out at some point this season, hopefully

If its not corruption, what is it?

 

[judge]

The problem with VAR (and nearly all of the rules) is that they are left open to interpretation (was it 'clear & obvious', was the tackle 'reckless and out of control', was it a goal scoring opportunity) which leads to the perception that the big teams are treat favourably. Rules that are black & white might lead to players being punished for unintentional actions, but at least we would be able to see that everyone was treat equally.

 

[knowing your history]

Coady was offside, much tighter with Gray at Leeds.

Van Dijk should've walked though, we've seen loads of VAR reds with those challenges in last 2-3 years so not getting ref to go to the screen to have a second look was a nonsense. Over the ball with studs showing.

 

[Bluelenny1984]

When we have to review a video countless times to check if someone's knee cap is off side is the day passion is sucked from the game.

It is just too consistent to not have an underlying agenda. I don't understand how the same inept officials on the pitch do VAR also. This should be contracted out

 

[Abertonian]

It's made the game worse.

Nobody can enjoy or celebrate a goal now without everyone holding their breath and looking at the screen. It's a joke.

Pre VAR there were good and bad calls but they were decided on the pitch and probably did even out. Now they don't.
