Quoted from Ipswin



I'd love to see that happen. Referees are in danger of becoming sidelined in the major decision making process and linos have already been told not to flag for offsides if its at all borderline thuis taking awauy their reason for being there.

Overall I don't like VAR except where a player commits a foul or assault off the ball that the ref doesn't see and he gets red carded later as he comes out of the shower. Goal line tecnology has sorted out the biggest problem, penalties IMO tend to level themselves out (refs often make sure of that)

Can't be much fun having the major decision making taken away from you

Far too many pennos (VAR and otherwise) in this WC already


Goalline technology is cut and dried, it's either over the line or it's not. Penalties are down to a persons point of view. How often do you see an incident where a penalty is given and one person will say it was a penalty whilst another will say it's not.

Another potentially brilliant result for England. It’s all lining up nicely...

Though the red card was a bit harsh. I though the double jeopardy rule meant that you didn't give both a penalty and a red for the same incident?

Obviously it's only the clown that refereed our play off game against Bristol that is afraid of running a game by sending off a player early on.

Only applies when it’s a tackle I think and only when it’s a clear attempt to play the ball.

Comedy of errors at the back by Poland gives Senegal a 2 goal lead.

Fair play to the Russians.Some thought they would struggle to even get out of the group!

Really pleased they have introduced VAR at this world cup though.

Really?  At this rate they may as well just make every game a penalty shoot out, it's getting ridiculous, it's heading to a record number of penalties by the end of the group stages alone.

Penalties plus the number of goals from set pieces (corners, free kicks) means a goal in open play is getting rarer and rarer with every game

I'd rather a few of the penalties had been missed by the referees and the VAR team quite honestly (after all they missed two nailed on ones last night!)
