June 16, 20188 yr 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...
June 16, 20188 yr 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. Edited June 16, 20188 yr by Burndens Bogs
June 16, 20188 yr 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.
June 17, 20188 yr 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.
June 17, 20188 yr 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.
June 18, 20188 yr 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?
June 18, 20188 yr 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'.
June 18, 20188 yr I don't understand how the Swedish pen had to go to var which was very clear And ours didn't
June 18, 20188 yr I think they missed it on var. Looking elsewhere. Only explanation I can think of. It was something out of wwf.
June 18, 20188 yr This is what happens when you vote brexit btw Hope the likes of mounts and bolty are happy with themselves
June 18, 20188 yr 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.
June 25, 20188 yr I hate VAR but if that Iranian smashed that chance home then after the pen I'd have loved it!
June 25, 20188 yr 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
June 25, 20188 yr 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.
June 25, 20188 yr 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
