    Be funny, for all City's financial clout, if they were to lose the title at the end of the season, due to those two drop points.

    Don’t think the FA/FL/PGMOL have the manpower to run it across 40 or so 3pm games at once. Then there’s the cost of the tech. **** that when Macclesfield can’t pay their players and you’ve got teams having games suspended.

    I doubt the ref even saw the infringement, not a single player on the pitch protested against the goal...that's what makes this even more laughable.

    I have no idea how expensive it is, but given that all games are filmed for highlight shows on Sky etc I can’t imagine it being super expensive to add the extra bits needed for VAR. I’m not 100% on that though

    Good question, I've seen no direct costings but this article will give you some insight to cost... https://www.sportbusiness.com/news/brazilian-clubs-reject-var-amid-cost-concerns/

    So who pays for it, well again, i've seen no direct article, but TV armchair fans BEWARE, because VAR breaks are very lucrative sponsorship breaks worth £600k a MINUTE. The future...just like the fooking Americans!
