I thought it was offside as I watched it so wasn’t surprised at all.

Was a big fan of VAR but not so sure now.

Harry Kane's goal last night was ruled offside despite "ball went backwards" claim.

I wonder how long it'll be until someone is pulled up for offside for their member being in an offside position..
"Well, its tight.. But as you can clearly see. The players bulge is the red line and is slightly ahead of the defenders head on the blue line"

Quoted from Poojah


Agreed, I’ve often thought this. VAR should be to the correct occasional howlers referees make or things that are difficult to spot in real time but obvious from a replay.

Ergo Puddy at Wembley was an obvious mistake - there is no degree of interpretation to those rules. Likewise Mullin’s handball - understandable the ref missed it in real time (as I did), but easy to identify from a replay at the right angle.

Teams should encounter VAR no more than a handful of times per season, not per game. Mistakes happen, but we shouldn’t be re-referreeing every decision.



There is controversy every week - more than when the refs were in sole charge because they were allowed the obvious human error margin for offside etc.

The question now is what we do about it. Although it doesn't affect the Mariners the very fabric of our game is at stake. The authorities keep fine tuning it but just get dragged deeper and deeper into the rabbit hole.

I hope there is a concerted campaign by the clubs to have the effect of VAR to be hugely curtailed next season or preferably scrapped.  It was a well meaning experiment that has had unforseen consequences one of which is turning fans off big style.

I love it.....the top leagues begged for it as they thought the refereeing was too poor, the game was too quick for the officials,  too many human errors etc.
Now they have their cake they can fking choke on it for my money.
Many more like last night and a few biggies in the world cup it will soon be getting called to be axed.

Whilst 'by the letter of the law', it was offside - if it's taking 3 minutes to come to a decision, then it's surely too close to call and the goal should stand?

Offside is offside, whether it takes 10seconds or 10 minutes. That’s what the teams have wanted, so that’s what they’ve got!

I don't remember Spurs fans whining about VAR taking the joy out of football when Sterling had his goal (for Man City against them in the CL Semi-Final) ruled out by VAR in 2019.

I hate VAR, or rather the way it is used . If it was used to irradiate the ‘hand of God’ incidents then great, but it’s not it’s used for inches in offside decisions . Wrecking the spectacle of the game
