Was happening right from the start, fans of either side chanting for VAR hoping a decision will be overturned or a goal disallowed. Of only they had VAR back on 6th March 1971 though...

VAR showing it's value at Spurs v Chelsea. Ref gave Spurs a free kick, VAR said (rightly) penalty to Chelsea.
I'd say it rather shows some lacking referee competence. HOW did he see that as a Spurs freekick? Gazzaniga channelled his inner Conor McGregor
For me whats wrong with it is they take 3 minutes to arrive at a decision when play has stopped (like today), but when something might have happened during open play ( and play carries on) you hear within seconds 'they've reviewed it'...
Agree entirely but, thankfully in this instance, VAR stepped in. Took a bit too long to conclude mind but...
A bit late with the reply but I totally agree with you. Also the delay by the linesmen to indicate an obvious offside will result in a player getting seriously injured
With goals being disallowed for offside because of a hand, an elbow or armpit, I can't wait for one being ruled offside because the passer or scorer had a "hard on."
Agreed - that Wolves disallowed goal today seemed "impossible" to tell.
They should introduce a "degree of tolerance/degree of error" factor of say 6 inches or whatever the resolution factor of the technology actually is. Or hook the "video" image up to a scanning electron microscope for better blow ups. Cheap enough if every major football league in the world chips in . I have a second-hand one going cheap.

I think the "degree of tolerance/error" factor ought to be nine inches not six as that will accomodate most hards on or should that be hard ons?
The speed of the technology (or lack of speed) means that the margin of error could be as large as 14 inches.Agreed - that Wolves disallowed goal today seemed "impossible" to tell.

Believe me, that’s large
So there should be no offside unless it looks well over a foot offside
FACT
Anyway just **** it off
Sky love it it's controversy.
They don't give a **** about football.
Two days, two decisions where VAR in my opinion is not needed.
Pukki’s armpit is offside, no goal. WTF?
Wolves player, can’t remember who, left boot left stud is offside, possibly played onside by the knee hair of Liverpool defender. No goal. WTF?
This was meant to stop injustice when crap linesmen were blinkered by Sky6 prejudice, at the moment it’s a ****in joke destroying the game

The only post match point for discussion these days is VAR. I heard some clown yesterday saying it may take 3 seasons to get it working properly. 3 ****ing years?! The game is being killed by administrators who don’t care. How come they think they know better than the paying public? If there was ever a case for a national boycott of games, this is it.
You may be right dennis, I haven't looked into it in depth.
When you see the results of "Hawkeye" at Wimbledon & other major tennis tournaments, presuming the accuracy is as it seems on screen, you wonder why the displays on telly for football VAR analysis isn't at the same resolution ?
We did land man on the moon did we not ?
