VAR

The tennis and cricket pics are effectively cartoons. The kit more or less guesses where it thinks the ball should have gone.

I may have mentioned before, technology like this is a bag of ****e for football. It's just to give the pundits something to talk bollocks about.

 

I thought we had, a couple of years after the Russians ( sorry , Soviets) did.
Timothy Leary's dead.

 

Apologies for linking to such a **** rag of a paper, but the graphic explains it better than I can

Basically players move so fast that it’s impossible for the frame speed to capture the exact moment the ball is played, and between camera frames a player could move over a foot

True. It was filmed on Mars. FACT.

 

So you're saying it's expensive "cheap technology" with no scientifically verified accuracy ?
Got any references to scientific reviews ? I'd love to check 'em out.

 

I'm saying precisely what I posted. No more, no less.

 

Cheers dennis - i'll read with interest later

 

Worthless evidence then.

 

Probably, given I never posted any 'evidence'.

 

"Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence".

 

That doesn't really make any sense in the context of whatever 'argument' you think you're having, but given you're demanding scientific evidence, I assume you've not researched it yourself at all, which means your post refers far more to you than me.

If you like them and you're of the opinion that they're effective, that's your prerogative. I just see them as yet another nail in the sport.

 

Don't think I'm having an argument - I'm asking for information from someone who appears to have a strong opinion of the inefficiency/inaccuracy of a tool being used in several sports, as well as an implied knowledge of the subject. I stated in another post that I haven't researched the technology in depth. You're the one who's appearing convinced one way. I'm asking questions from ignorance. You seem to be making statements from ignorance.
No argument. A factual observation only .

 

Maybe you should try looking for information yourself before jumping in with a lot of empty words and demands that others do it for you. You may just find you get a better response if it doesn't come across as you simply trying to be a bit contrary on something you readily admit to knowing nothing about. .

My point is more about them not resolving the issues they're claimed to be installed for, but being a tool for pundits to continue to 'find' controversies to burble on about. If you check, you'll see what I mean about how they work.

If you can't see evidence for that, it would be a fair guess that you don't watch much football, or you're a pundit.

You really can't defend this can you, so resort to accusing others of being demanding and having no exposure to the game.

I asked a couple of simple questions. You took umbridge and went on attack.

Sorry state of affairs.

Not a pundit. Watched every PL game this weekend. Listened to City's game ( obviously no VAR involved in an audio feed). Pretty well the same every week.

I was asking about the technology & suggesting how it might be improved to enhance its efficacy. My point. You may have had access to a source.
Apparently not. Such is life.
May you have a happy new year.

 

And for all your time and words, you're still none the wiser and VAR is still ****.

 

My only solace then has to be I wasted some of your time which explained nothing.

 

Despite it being the subject, you've not even bothered to state if you like technology in football or not, never mind why. All you've said is that you know nothing about it.

There are examples in this thread alone of its accuracy.

Do you like or dislike technology in football?

 

I might not have been clear in my view either?

 

I am waiting to see what Gollum Lloyd’s opinion on it it is. Then I will know what position not to take.

 

Don't mention the var.
