No-one cares a hoot if it affects results as long as the big guns reap the ultimate benefit. That's why it was brought in.

Pukki has run the hard yards to get himself onside, that phase is over. Was punished for hard work. Got to get this **** out of the game very quickly. Its like aliens have arrived and took over football and making us play their rules.

Its not going sadly

They can make the game up as they go along

And they have successfully managed to rid themselves of the real fans who know the rules, and replaced them with happy clapping drones

They are making it up as they go along

There was an offside a few weeks back, we were talking the smallest of fractions either way, it was chalked of for offside, a couple of weeks later a totally similar fraction call was given as a goal. We are getting goals chalked off one minute for whatever, and the next a goal is scored is similar circumstances that's not even looked at.

Its beyond a joke now, its blatant match management and anyone with a pair of facking eyes can see it. Sadly as my previous post states they've rid the game of actual knowledgeable fans, and replaced them with social media guffs, and family happy clappers.

The game to put it bluntly is facked

If they want the goal chalked off they'll move that white line, stick a toe nail over it and say oh look he's offside

No goal sorry, carry on

3 goals chalked off today, probably less than an inch offside total for the three

ive not seen a single proof the system has that degree of accuracy

The offside rule is grey anyway

You can't start ruling offside for tiny fractions anyway, he was not gaining any type of advantage from his elbow straying franctionly offside as their saying ffs

Its a disgrace it really is. Unless he's obviously offside you can'y give it offside.

The problem is not Stockley park or the premier league its those cretins from FIFA who dictate to every national association how VAR is to be used,these similar ludicrous situations were happening throughout the previous season in the German,Italian,Spanish leagues who were using VAR, you just knew when FIFA got a new toy they would make a FCUK up in its implementation just like awarding Qatar a summer world cup,i would not put it past FIFA that they have licensed all the relevant technology,equipment,offside lines etc and selling it to all the national associations as we all know they are more interested in money than the common good of the game and if it was left to the premier league how VAR is used the vast majority of this nonsense would not be happening but they are hamstrung by FIFA and don't get me started about there IFAB team coming up with stupid new handball rules one for the defence and a separate one for the attack which is utter stupidity.

No, the problem is the younger, idiot fans who want everything 'perfect'. Well, VAR has not been your answer has it?

It is a sport and there are always going to be debatable decisions. It is not an argument to say 'so much money rides on the game'.

Those who invest in football clubs must remember that it is a sport based business and not the other way around. If they want safer returns on their capital, let them buy government backed gilts and securities!

As for the fans again. Well, the genie is out of the bottle now and I hope you are satisfied because VAR is spoiling the game.

Disallowing the second Norwich 'goal' yesterday because of a debatable half an inch or so was total madness. A wonderful piece of skill ruled out. Football is rapidly shooting itself in both feet.

professional foul by jorginho when stopping a dangerous counter by arsenal, yet no 2nd yellow card, ref bottled it, var bottled it, jorginho then scores equaliser, i think arsenals lack of ambition 2nd half caused their downfall but this was a disaster for the officials

No need for it there as it was 1-0 and by sending their player off it would have killed the game

As it is Aresnal have been facked over late on by the player that should have gone ffs

Still, its great discussion innit CrazyPlain

if they do red card decisions then i thought it was part of the remit, i could be wrong, ref seemed to be evening up his wrong decisions, not an easy game to ref on the pitch but this is where i'd hope var steps in to help, if we have to have it

They can move the line back or forth, its blatant rigging now

The fans need to boycott the games, or invade the pitch until its scrapped simple as that

And what's more pathetic is they are dressed like NASA cadets ffs, absolute comical bull***t

Offside has to mean the torso, not an outstretched arm. Crazy. As usual with any technology, it is the human decisions that are at fault.

go back to last night and as I said,if it was a training exercise for the use of var, and used pukki as a centre back and the spurs player as a forward, there,s no sane man in football could say with them pictures that pukki had played the blue shirt onside, commentators would have said the blue shirt was a yard on

they show a freeze frame and they are correct, one is fraction of an inch closer goal line than t'other

no real problem.



the problem is that we have no idea that is the exact moment the ball left the players foot.

On the Jonny goal after he got the pass the Liverpool defence reset and touched the ball for a clearance before Neto scored which made it a new phase of possession for Wolves and hence a legal goal.

reffs ,epl thinking their getting decisions right,but their only getting them right when a goals been scored ,the same decisions which can lead to corners,dangerous free kicks from which goals are scoired are been ignored,like in cricket you can lose by 2 runs after 4,5,6,7 plus no balls are ignored but every wicket ball checked
in the sterling pen retake it was a city player who encroached furthest and like in a 100 metre false start triggering the others,so city benefiting from them breaking the rules 1st

Nearly all of the technology needs human interpretation. In cricket, can you be sure where a sound comes from? One thing is sure, all new technologies have changed the sport involved so previous statistics are not comparable. Has one false start and you are out changed sprinting? Do athletes wait in their blocks a few 100ths longer to avoid dq? Has that affected times? In tennis, the rule now says that the ball does not have to touch the line, just overlap it by 1mm. So the courts are effectively about 5cm longer and wider.

They've really taken the ridiculousness to new levels this weekend. A farcical display of ineptitude in nearly every match. Clear and Obvious errors only and that means it should only take 10 secs for a decision. If something is clear on the video it shouldn't take any longer to discern it. Checking every goal for reasons to disallow it needs to stop too. Give teams a limited amount of challenges if it helps. But the use of VAR needs to be severely restricted.

I have thought that all along, if the pass had been made say two hundredths of a second either way the decision could easily be different, the concept of when the pass was made cannot be made to the exact time frame so  if the offside cannot be seen with the naked eye without those stupid lines then original decision should remain in place.

Spot on. Once upon a time football was somewhere to get away from the travails of live. And it still should be. It's a sport for god sake. Money is turning it too much into business and finances rather than sport.
