stevieb Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 Var is a loada shite - Th'argies should have had a 2nd pen and the ref chose not even to look at it. Still wide open to bent decisions imo. England will come unstuck with Var YHIHF Do you remember 2006 or 2004 or whenever it was, we got knocked out on a scorching day, every one in town pissed up and it was a fucking war zone. If we went out to VAR in those circumstances...
Burndens Bogs Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 (edited) 2002 was a bit rum in town when we beat the Argies, some bright spark decided to pull the plug on serving ale whilst everyone was in full flow - Fairly predictable that carnage was about to follow....and it did in big fat fcuking spades.

gonzo Posted June 16, 2018 Posted June 16, 2018 No it won't. Stop being drama queens It’s all about chasing that buzz of celebrating a goal. If you’ve one eye on a video ref it takes it all away. It’s already getting over used and will only get worse. Will end up like rugby.
MickyD Posted June 17, 2018 Posted June 17, 2018 What's the point of having a ref? Just let the 22 blokes play football and each time the VAR folk fancy, we'll stop the game and make a ruling.
Underpants Posted June 17, 2018 Posted June 17, 2018 It’s all about chasing that buzz of celebrating a goal. If you’ve one eye on a video ref it takes it all away. It’s already getting over used and will only get worse. Will end up like rugby. Taking the edge off. That's been my argument all along. It will get over used and abused. Players will be badgering the referees even more. Don't like this use of VAR. Don't think i ever will. AMF AVAR.
Dr Faustus Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 Dunno how it compares to previous WCs, but that was the 7th so far. 7/1 for one to be awarded in play... Are we seeing more penalties? Is there potential to see a challenge real time, and then shove a quid on before the decision is called?
madthatter Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 If it's making the correct call then I'm all for it. Not so keen on the lack of spontaneity though from a fan pov - as said above it makes celebrating a goal less 'raw'.
L/H White Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 So why didn't outs get referred Never ever ever a pen ffs
L/H White Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 I don't understand how the Swedish pen had to go to var which was very clear And ours didn't
Tonge moor green jacket Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 I think they missed it on var. Looking elsewhere. Only explanation I can think of. It was something out of wwf.
Boothy Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 What's the time limit? Should review it at half time
L/H White Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 This is what happens when you vote brexit btw Hope the likes of mounts and bolty are happy with themselves
Leyther_Matt Posted June 18, 2018 Posted June 18, 2018 So why didn't outs get referred Never ever ever a pen ffs The VAR team refer it to the referee if they feel he should have another look at it. I think.
Matt Lofthouse Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 Its even more bollocks than it was 90 minutes ago.
stevieb Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 I hate VAR but if that Iranian smashed that chance home then after the pen I'd have loved it!
madthatter Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 Trialling this at a World Cup; sack the FIFA board Not great is it? Still think it's a good idea but way too many creases to be ironed out
gonzo Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 RIP football. As Danny banker just said.... Seriously VAR. Its a fuzzy, fussy, muddled, complicated, bloated, hopeless fudge of a con foisted onto the game. It does not make things better or clearer or decisive. Fuck off Var and all your supporters.
Zico Posted June 25, 2018 Posted June 25, 2018 From what I'd seen so far VAR had got everything right with no great trauma Then that happened tonight The only thing the ref must've thought reviewing that pen would be how funny it would be to put the shits up Portugal God knows what he saw, or didn't, for ronaldo's yellow
