Lets go the whole hog and don't bother with the actual game - just use a computer simulation to decide the outcome and be done with it.

If we are going to use VAR to make sure we get all the "correct decisions" then do away with the ref as well while we are at it. He/she being human will make mistakes. Players make mistakes. Either we have no mistakes whatsoever or we allow the game to continue to thrive without the VAR cancer.

But VAR would still make errors because handballs,simulation & penalty awards to name a few are non definitive and will always bring a different of opinion.

Yes but that isn't the current offside rule.
So it's offside according to the current law's.
Whether we feel that's correct is and will be alwsys up for debate.


I agree, it’s the law that’s wrong.

Gutted that we lost and well done to our women anyway, let's hope the English cricket team can keep the other World Cup dream going tomorrow.

I was shocked when one of the pundits was reviewing the Yanks’ goal when Lucy Bronze was caught out. I thought ‘Lucy’s body shape was all wrong’ was not a very sisterly thing to say. 😀


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Have to agree... As daft as it sounds getting every decision right is ruining the game, mainly because of the time and waiting around to find out the decision... With the amount of extra time that's now going to be played in most VAR games fans need to consider their train times if they travel to games that way...
