    Yeah I know mate but it makes a bit of a mockery of var's supposedly big selling point.

    Nothing to do with match days but seeing as we're talking about Champions League, I'm pleased to AC Milan have just got themselves into a qualifying spot. I would be very happy to see them back in the CL next season - great European club.

    I think that's a **** rule anyway. Even the bloke stood 5 feet away walking onside scratching his arse is interefering. As a defender in that instant, your positional calculation takes that man into consideration as you do not know what the ref will give and that affects your play.

    Scrap it

    Agreed - you have 2 separate events - you'd only review the free kick for something like 'moving ball' ....<cheers>

    Why does a man who wants his team to get relegated care about season defining decisions and losing money as a result of relegation?

    It's var's main argument, I'm pointing out it doesn't solve all.

    It's not difficult bru.

    In 1965 the first substitute was allowed in English footie.

    The concept had been vehemently opposed in parts of Hampshire.

    "Where will it end? They won't stop at one each. Soon they will want 3 or more per side!. Just think of the disruption and delay. Fans won't know which horse drawn tram to catch home. Why can't we just keep it how it is? If a player collapses, injuted, just leave them there and play around them like we used to do in the good old days! This is going to ruin the game, I tell thee!" <laugh>

    Its ****. Needs to be used for 30 second immediate decisions and replays watched in real time. Else scrap it like the 4th officials
