Interesting that United have had a pen in every game since it was brought in <whistle>

Goal line technology is fine, as you say it's clear cut. Everything else is subjective so just leave it to the ref. I'm not up for this 3 reviews bollocks either, it's a **** idea.

Only everything else isn't subjective ... nowhere near ...sometimes there is down right cheating and the human eye (ref) can be conned ... the hand of God goal evidences ..

In a couple of years time it will be fine ....works fine in other sports despite similar knee jerking when first introduced <cheers>

I'm all for it ... should end or minimise coming away from a game feeling you've been unfairly robbed <cheers>

That last sentence clearly isn’t true though is it?

I don't think it works that well in rugby union tbh. Most refs refer far too many decisions to the video and aren't doing their jobs. Nigel Owen is an honourable exception. Game time has increased significantly, the decisions are still not always correct and this is in a sport where there are lots of breaks in play. In football it's a recipe for chaos.

I agree with this. Why make a decision on the field when it can be sent upstairs?
I think it works quite well in cricket because like goal line technology the vast majority of decisions (which are LBW) are not subjective

Works even better when a captain chucks his review away on a decision that was never going to be overturned!
The Irish have it right in hurling and Garlic football I think. It's only used to decide if the ball went through the posts.

I actually agree with this but they will not. Not while the financial men that rule the game accept it's decisions.

Those decisions will fruit at the end of the season, when Man City look back on a perfectly good goal, that was disallowed imo! And Kane looks back on what should have been a penalty imho.

Some might argue it's swings and roundabout's but we already had that before VAR.

I feel VAR is getting involved in decisions it wasn't introduced, and it is making the refs role redundant, for fear of making mistake.

I guy on TV tried to degend VAR by giving a percentage of accuracy, while avoiding quoting accuracy before it. But i will give you it, one season that was tested before VAR, despite all the debates and arguments, when reviewed, evidenced throughout the whole season there was only ONE mistake that caused injustice by its decision.

But hey it's what the money men want and as per, we will just lump and accept what we are told.

Don't know why you are complaining. You'll never be involved in games where VAR gets used <whistle>
