Be great if a ground without it entertained Liverpool and they didn't benefit from its use. Teethemstein would blow a gasket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool benefit more than most from VAR but get one decision wrong they want the whole game replayed; hate them and their neighbours across the park. We need to let the authorities know our thoughts on this rubbish VAR which is ruining the sport - Fuck the VAR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the game, yes But we could get the benefit of VAR let's say correctly that sees us through as we are away at a prem team Another team should get a similar decision in their favour but don't because they're not playing a prem team Ditch it for all so it's a more level playing field Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either side could benefit or otherwise on the day. Equally, without it, either side could benefit or suffer. If it was a league then there would be a concern.

So in league one let's say we can VAR for all our home matches but Leyton Orient can't Is that fair? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted January 4 Site Supporter Share Posted January 4 Right then, seeing as we're massive having just won the biggest cup in world football I'll pose this question: Would you take winning the FA cup if it meant not getting promotion?

FA Cup any day of the week and twice on a Sunday. Yes, I think I'd probably take that too. Chances are we'll never win it in my lifetime, so if the opportunity was there, the experience would be difficult to ignore. Can see the promotion argument though- even winning a major trophy could still see us losing players if we were still in division 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

W.cramp Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Struggling to muster up any interest in this. If Luton make the expected 8 or 9 changes then we win, evatt rarely makes wholesale changes even when expected to, win this then spurs away. Ps.
