Hearts v Celtic next Saturday at 12.30 sees the introduction of VAR to Scottish football.
Something to look forward to?

Sonta in our home game with Dortmund last season we scored a good goal to win the game.
It was chalked off by VAR. Morelos had taken the ball off a defender before slotting home.
Looked like a foul from the back but the head on view showed no contact.
After the game the ref admitted he hadn't been shown that angle.

Its disgusting aka

Another massive fook up in Brazil just now with Sport Recife Vasco game, dodgy penalty given by var and its probably going to cost Sport promotion ffs

Massive uproar, riot police on the pitch, stuff being thrown from the stands etc

It needs scrapping it really does, it probably cost Gremio their Serie A status last season

Just get rid and stay with on field calls

They're not gonna get rid of VAR. You cannot innovate and then because a few people don't like it just scrap it entirely.

I agree in smaller leagues VAR is a head f8ck, the irony is though their game is littered with error and var is actually needed more there, but in a poor country where football is more important than anything, a VAR call going against a team could lead to murder. but then the refs were getting it in the neck anyway without VAR, so they can't win either way.

I personally think VAR gives football a lot more integrity, it's a game full of error if you look at it, and not just talking about referee error, so VAR is a necessity to have as fair a game as possible

every other sport has an equivalent to VAR and it's made the game better, why is football any different?
