Guest User	I keep viewing it and can completely see why it was given as a red.  I'm still not convinced it was however. The ball takes a wicked spin away as a result of the tackle which leads to his leg following through. If the ball doesn't spin away that's not even given as a foul as his foot remains behind the ball.  When slowed down it looks horrific when you see his foot on the opponents shin. In real time it looks totally different hence the reason it wasn't seen as a foul by the referee. I guess that's VAR for you and the general consensus of the forum is that it's damaging football. Luckily it's not due at BP anytime soon.

Spurs end up with nine men on the pitch so apart from the two sending off and five goals there was the penalty to look at . I thought the game was never going to end.                                Over 36 years living in Suffolk but always a mariner.                              68 Years following the Town                               Life member of Trust                                First game   April 1955

Should be an open mike so we can all hear the discussion, and should only be used if the ref requests help/something serious the ref couldn't see has occurred

I think the new EFL TV deal that commences next season represents a step towards that, regrettably. From next season 45% of League Two games will be broadcast live on Sky, with the requisite increase in cameras that brings with it, and of course the revenue it creates for game to spunk, be that on players, agents, infrastructure or whatever. There’s a potential challenge in finding the manpower for a further 36 EFL games each weekend but I suspect there are potential solutions for that. I’d expect to see VAR in the EFL within 5 years. Whether that’s enough time to iron out its obvious flaws is anyone’s guess. A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

Shandy Drinker Posts: 97 Posts Per Day: 0.10 Approval: +244 Gold Stars: 17	VAR continues to amuse me daily. Many moaned about refs. VAR eventually get’s introduced and (premiershit) fans moan even more! Careful what you wish for. As someone said further up the thread, we have to accept refs will make mistakes. Then leave the game alone. Doubt that will happen though. But I’m a dinosaur who would prefer terracing back, black boots only, shirts numbered 1-11 and one minute silences not clapping.

But I’m a dinosaur who would prefer terracing back, black boots only, shirts numbered 1-11 and one minute silences not clapping. I’ve said previously that the overwhelming number of officiating “mistakes” are either marginal or contentious. It’s the 1% or 2% which are absolute howlers - ghost goals, balls blatantly crossing the line and not given etc. - that need eradicating and could be done so quite easily. Still, VAR has to justify its own costs and so has to be over engineered. At least we’ve got an FA Cup quarter final to thank for it. Now, where did all that money go… A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

Long live VAR. When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”
