VAR

[John from Bootle]

Am I the only one who wants to know how that clip ends.
Who bloody won?

My ma. Black T-shirt.

Hodgson was pathetic in his interview too. Had an absolute meltdown when he had a player sent off v Liverpool but tonight’s was ‘just the way the modern game is’.

Yeh I expected more because of that and the fact he's old school or so I thought.
Both managers in a game need to call out bad decisions which ever way it goes,
But they don't if benefits their team,
Grow a pair, call them out and take the fine.

You can add the palace players tackle on Gordon to that too just before he put them 2 up before coming back to win 3 -2. Was it Ayew I think

The VVD tackle is awful.

Top left isn't it? Absolute leg snapper that one.

The IFAB steadfast refuse to allow audio to be played in stadiums despite calls from the FA for it to be done

That's false.
They don't allow it because Utd and Liverpool don't have tv screens.

Yep, it was a straight red woth the current rules as he was completely out of control...

Oh shyt no it was against Everton so stay on the pitch and score 4 minutes later.

I think they may well of gone too far tonight, nobody believes that should of been a red card. It's been a farce VAR since day one, entirely designed to influence results. Man City getting a goal disallowed against Spurs for a player handballing it, yet Deli Ali punches it out for Spurs against us and it isn't given. Just get rid of it. It's clear referees are selectively using it to punish certain teams, I could tolerate bad decisions in the past but now it's just ridiculous when they are actually looking at it.

Personally don’t think the issue is the decision to go to VAR or to decide to give a red, as I had thought they are supposed to punish players going in with studs high or above the ball regardless of whether they ultimately make contact

Not my own preference, just understanding of what the rule is but somebody might know it in more detail

The big issue is the inconsistency as there’s countless tackles which fall within those parameters that don’t even get looked at. For any real hard challenge to VAR in general, or the officials crap implementation of it, you’d only need to take that one rule as an example and show countless examples where a red has been given or not and ask your questions from there as to firstly what the VAR officials are claiming and with what exact footage, and from there what is the refs reasoning to go along or not.

I think there’s a lot of emotive noise in this subject that distracts from the details, which is understandable when we get screwed over, but I’d like to think somebody at some club or in the footballing world would take this up. Garry Neville’s not had a cause to shout about for a while, get him into the Sky video library

I haven’t seen a clip of DCLs red yet but I was in car listening on Sirius XM and the commentators were beside themselves for about 15 minutes how ridiculous it was he got sent off

To be fair with every week that goes by the “no corruption” gang look more and more like the tinfoil hat wearing basket cases.

If it's not corruption then what is it would be my question to them.

Corruption takes many forms including bias, favouritism as well as collusion, bribes etc.

Mcneil injured as a result of some frantic defending. also. So could be argued that shocking decision is also to blame for that. Teams generally have to be a bit more frantic when a man down.

It just isn't a red card, if their guidance is telling them that it is then it's wrong. The game needs clear decisions to be made based on the actual rules, with the expectation that sometimes borderline decisions could be deemed 'wrong'. It's absolutely not good enough making stinking decisions like this with the aid of video replays.

I personally don't think you can referee games based on previous decisions, and to be honest I think we're getting dangerously close to that.

I actually liked VAR in 2018 world cup.

it was brought in to stop clear and obvious errors. If you have to draw a line, nothing To see. If you have to look at it in slow mo, nothing to see. If you have to look at it a second time, nothing to see.

it can be good, but has to be clear and obvious. It then takes 10 seconds so no impact on the game
