    Go on. I think it’s **** too.

    I wouldn’t mind it if they capped the time allowed to overturn a decision. Nearly two minutes on Wednesday and it was still a debate after. It must be **** for fans at the match too.

    You don't need VAR to stop that though, just A FA with a backbone. Dish out a few 3 match bans and it will soon disappear from the game.

    It's ****ing awful at the match, sucks all the emotion out and you can't even celebrate goals anymore as they review every goal. I suppose at least on tv your getting replays etc whereas at the match you're just watching 22 players stood around looking at each other.

    It's farcical and will ruin football as a live spectacle.

    Plus I think the world cup proved that if anything it will encourage it rather than stamp if out. Non contact sport in the box incoming.

    You obviously think so. Obviously it's not important, but it's my opinion all the same. <ok>

    Exactly. Hawkeye is clinical, it’s either a goal or it’s not. VAR is just another layer of subjectivity.

    I wouldn't commit suicide but it would be a terrible day for English football.

    Your right, it wasn't. But I didn't know there was a margin for error on goal line technology until that game.

    Btw lads, its a sad day for me. I won't be watching the game <wah>

    I'm taking my lady out for lunch and she's not prepared to go for a burger in a sports bar, the ****ing bitch.

    So just a heads up, I'm not missing so no need to go cave searching.

    The mad thing is that gane didnt lose us the title...

    You might think im mad but Hendo getting a 3 match ban was the deciding factor in that title race.
