lol lol lol

Just watched a clip of that. How on earth is that disallowed, seriously? What the hell is he meant to do on the ground, teleport somewhere else?

Insane. What a complete laughing stock of a season this has been.

The amount of time they took and all. Gagging to disallow it. Just like DCL goal v United.

Both to the top sides benefit.
 
carragher said it was a pen in real time. i'm not sure how it took them 2 and a half minutes and 20 views of slow mo cameras.

Honestly the only explanation I have is they needed to make a telephone call to see if they should give it.

The point of VAR was to take any doubt of corruption and incompetence off the table, and it's miraculously managed to actually double both of those things!
 
Urgh only just managed to burn that from my brain...

VAR needs binning. Even today with that handball, it would take anyone with half a brain 20 seconds to realise it was a pen, but it was five minutes instead.

It's dreadful.
And yet...we only got 3m injury time. VAR is a parallel universe

The lack of access to the communications between the ref and VAR makes it very corrupt imo. The clubs should be demanding more transparency but the ones that matter know that hurts them.
 
If you need a forensic examination to make a decision, then the refs decision should override”

I like this comment from a texter on bbc. This is why the onfield refs should be reviewing these decisions pitchside. If the guy in Stockley Park disagrees, the onfield ref’s decision is final. It’s embarrassingly amateurish.
