Quoted from ska face


If a referee can’t spot a defender encroaching by about 3 yards, he probably shouldn’t be working in the prem.

Do you really need a video replay for that?


I would probably say he can Ska but maybe told to leave it to VAR.

The other thing that has crept into the game that my dad hates is obstruction when the ball is going out of play and the defender has no intention of playing the ball.  I told my dad he's shielding the ball.....he replied bollo(ks lol

Do we really care what goes on in the top flight? It could be a few years yet before it has the slightest effect on us other than in the cup competitions (even that shouldnt happen, every game has it or no games should have it within the same competition). Hell we might even be in a new stadium before VAR gets to our division.

VAR was intended as goal line technology-if we keep on like this we wont need the ref on the pitch. Some clever shite sits there all day thinking what he can come up with next to fk the game up. Saturday was absolutely ridiculous.

In cricket they have ‘umpire’s call’ which means on the marginal decisions the final one sticks with what the umpire said at the time.

So yesterday, the linesman allowed the goal to stand. When VAR reviewed it and found the advantage was 1mm, then unless there’s a CLEAR & OBVIOUS error the decision stays with the onfield official.

Some may say that complicates it more. I dunno. I just really dislike VAR. Ultimately, it’s not going to stop the best teams from winning or the poorest sides from getting relegated.

I know everyone wants correct decisions. In my opinion, I’d stick with goal line technology. Maybe use VAR to sort out the cheating first, then build from that.

When Ogbu scored yesterday I was gutted when I saw the linesman’s flag. That’s bad enough. But when Hanson scored, could you imagine us all waiting while VAR decided if there were any offences in the box when the corner was swung in? They could’ve disallowed it for the smallest shirt tug and the fans in the stands would’ve had no idea.

The cheating side should be looked at, does VAR check if the player had dived for penalties, also when a player gets caught on his chest but goes down holding his face as if he'd been shot, is VAR checking this?


They do check for a red card offence that the ref might have missed.

Like the one game Town had it in operation at Palace.

As many of us foretold VAR is making the game ridiculous.

The game is littered with mistakes by players and managers so why should the officials have to be "perfect"?

Goal-line technology is fair enough, but anything else just makes a mockery of the game. If you take it to its logical conclusion, any missed foul leading up to a goal should be brought back so you may as well play the game on a computer screen.

I would also imagine that most saved penalties would have to be re-taken. It is almost impossible to stop encroaching into the box as the kick is taken - a split second too early and you are inside the box so if the keeper saves it would have to re-taken. Valid penalty saves would become a thing of the past.

What a mess they have made of it.

It may have already been covered but was Foxy the first player in England to be sent off by VAR?

My question is, a defender is in the box as the player shoots and the keeper saves it, is it retaken? Or is it only retaken if the player who was in the box interfers after.. Also if an attacking player enters as the player scores is it a goal?
