SCRAP VAR

[tommye]

Yes you'd rather just not fix the problem and I don't think like that. It's OK that you do though.

The problem is VAR and the idiots operating it. That will not change. It will always be subjective.
Remove the problem to the nearest bin.

I hate the current var system and would happy to scrap it.

But the only way it can even kind of work is through challenges. That way the var must look at an incident when requested and can't pick and choose

that still wont work as they will still come up with decisions to suit some teams

 

[street end]

Why are VAR even getting involved in that penalty decision to Brighton?

This doesn't fix anything, you just take all this energy and direct it at the referee on the field.

I mean we still hate Collina and Clattenberg, don't act like it was different.

I never said it was different.
Referees will always be what they've always been.
VAR is crap and is sucking the life out of the game.
Nothing you waffle will convince me otherwise.

I think it's distracting everyone from what is really sucking the life out so maybe on that front it is worth sacking

We need a new VAR to check the existing VAR.

I still feel our 2 goals should have stood.

So do I.

Particularly the one at Leeds.

Goal line tech is 100% and works brilliantly.

Well, apart from that Villa - Sheffield game ?

 

[manxtoffee]

Hawkeye is far superior to this VAR tripe. Get it in the bin.

Wait you mean the one yesterday?

lol

VAR brings attention/controversy to other games throughout the league and people love controversy. They know what they are doing with a lot of these ridiculous decisions.

 

[Blueclouds]

You can automate the offside, decide what the base line is and leave it to the computer. No need for any refs to get involved

 

[Loadsofchemistry]

If we say get rid of VAR, we might as well say get rid of referees whistles and linesman’s flags, there all the same thing effectively, tools to help the officials do their job, get rid of VAR and we will still be left with referees who arnt up to it and apply different rules to different teams. Everyone seems to be blaming VAR and ignoring the idiots running it.

Yeah it's sad: I've spent a lot of time in Thailand the past year and there is just Liverpool paraphernalia everywhere, from stickers on motorbikes to people of all ages wearing the replica shirts to knock off pieces of clothing with their crest on it, it's utterly mad.

You quite literally cannot go anywhere, mall, restaurant, even the kin beach, without seeing somebody wearing something Liverpool FC-related.

They played United in Bangkok recently and the match tickets were 100x more expensive than for a regular Thai league match, yet the stadium was packed out with a mix of 'fans' and 'influencers' attaching their allegiance to both clubs.

You'd see stunning Thai models on Instagram posing pitchside with their new Liverpool shirt, yet clearly unable to even name a player or state a single fact about the club. Or you'd see huge groups of 'fans' waiting at the hotel the club was staying at going mental at the sight of literally any white person that looked like they might possibly be representing the club, screaming at the top of their lungs at the sight of somebody like Nathaniel Philips or a club physio.

This is commercialism at its finest and, unfortunately, the likes of Liverpool and United have absolutely mastered it. The money they make off this alone will be in the tens of millions each year. Us, in comparison, I'd be gobsmacked if we even made 5% of what they do in South East Asia. It was the same in Singapore when I lived there too.

This keeps the big teams at the top, and in turn keeps mega money flowing into the Premier League. So of course the FA will do all they can to keep it exactly the way it is, they do not want an Everton defeating Liverpool when there are tens of millions of people around the world cheering for a Liverpool victory.

It's incredibly unfair.

its mainly the colour red. its a talisman or good luck thing all over the far east.

any other colour team shirts haven`t got a chance
