    I have hated VAR since we played Rochdale in Feb 2018. That was a clusterfuck of stupid indecipherable decisions and everything I have seen since confirms it.

    It's only use is to give you a good laugh at whoever gets ****ed over by it <laugh>

    A very memorable game and mostly for the wrong reasons.

    well you might as well laugh at the others since you know it bound to be your turn soon .
    Actually the only other good thing is giving folks like you , me & Libby who were dead set against it all along can now say smugly " we did tell you , it's not our fault you didn't listen ".

    Son wrongly sent off.
    The disallowed offside v Leicester (as insane os the Sheffield United one)
    Several non penalties.
    It's happened to everyone!

    You need to send all the pixels many times a second to get a 'moving' picture on the TV. TV has always been pixel like scanned sequentially, even in analogue. It's not like film where each frame is a shot of the whole picture.

    So taking PnP's 50 frames a second, all that means is that each pixel gets sent 50 times a second. The ball is on average going to be kicked between pixel updates so that will mean that either the frame before or after will be equally sensible to select. If players are running at 20 feet per second in opposite directions then the closing speed is 40 feet per second so that means they would have moved relatively nearly a foot between frames. It doesn't make sense to give offside unless the player is offside in both frames either side of when the ball is kicked.

    i doubt there are many PL teams who haven't disagreed with a VAR non decision / decision so yes .

    The original comment made it sound like we hadn't had a turn, though.

    if it did , which it didn't to me considering RCLs post that i was replying to , it wasn't meant to .
    Personally never wanted VAR & was always of the opinion that it would end up in a **** show but as it turned out our authorities decided to skip the preamble and just go straight to the **** show saving us all time .<laugh>

    I'm sorry, but **** that manager. He deliberately moves into the way and gets pushed out of it.
    Totally caused the whole thing and should get punished as much as the player does.

    Losing to an eigth tier side that had 10 men doesn't look good though, does it?

    Found guilty ages ago, not enforced until after our game had been played.

    Also

    Harvey elliot calls Harry Kane a mong in a private Snapchat leaked by someone else = 2weeks banned from all football.

    Silvas punishment is a joke tbf.

    FA doing what they do best <laugh>

    He was banned from domestic club football for two weeks when there wasn't any for virtually all of that time.
    He missed the Man Utd game, which he wouldn't have played in, as he's yet to make his Premier League debut for you and has made the bench once.
    He got banned for an U23 match against Wolves.

    To be fair, they didn't look that 8th tier.
    Pace up front is threatening whatever level you play at. And these guys are fit these days too.
