First para, you seen the state of our officials? If we educated (trained) them better than we wouldn't need this nonsense.

Second para, hope you're looking forward to watching a [HASHTAG]#noncontactsport[/HASHTAG] soon bru.

No I'm not up for a non contact sport...I'm up for cheating defenders getting murked. Defenders more than any other player on the pitch.

Plus if you have given up on educating refs and have embraced their limited application..then we are ****ed...they are too incompetent
 
Oh come on Spurly ffs, have a word with yourself. You're better than this.

Anyone who believes var will stop diving should pm me for some of the finest magic beans known to man.

It's about trying...you have to try it...I might agree with you in a year or 2

Nah you're right stick to underhanded tactics by defenders and moaning about it...gives the game credibility.

I'm all for total control taken away from 1 man...especially when that one man has no comebacks ever and seems incompetent to apply basic logic and common sense

Introduce referee interviews after the game and I'll scrap VAR....can't ask for a fairer than that
 
VAR still comes down to referees. There are very few cut and dried decisions, in football as in life. In fact in many cases, the more you consider something, from the greater number of angles, the more confusing it becomes.

Also if refs end up going to review they're looking for something to change their mind rather than as a fresh incident.
 
I say scrap offsides for free kicks into the box and any kind of handball in the box is a pen...make it simpler and remove the responsibility away from stupid human rationale.

Non of these ideas are going to affect the fair n square physicality of the game

Offside should just be offside again, if you're in the box then you're interfering with play in my book.
