filbertway 3,190 Posted 4 March Report Share Posted 4 March He was onside wasnt he? Yellow line was Werner and it was onside. Then they moved the line down to his wrist and he was offside. Please tell me I'm not the only one who saw it that way? Haha 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

turtmcfly 1,944 Posted 4 March Report Share Posted 4 March (edited) 16 minutes ago, Col city fan said: This is the important sentence: 32.5% goals allowed vs 67.5% disallowed. Due to VAR, 100% more goals disallowed than allowed For a sport where spectators pay to see good football and goals being scored, there is a fundamental paradox here from the start. VAR is overturning the very thing that fans want to see (and in my case as a bloke who likes the occasional flutter, wants to see) Can’t be a good thing.. Perhaps the most interesting point of all is right at the end of the article. Some bookies are literally offering ‘VAR insurance’ to try to encourage punters who have become so sick of VAR ruining their bets. Cant be more clear really can it? Or @HighPeakFoxis this just a ‘Col’ thing to say? I notice you've cropped the 'important sentence' so it looks better. Strange that. I've used bold myself to highlight the missing bit. Taking just the decisions to allow or disallow a goal there was a bias of 32.5% goals allowed vs 67.5% disallowed So, these numbers don't include disallowed goals subsequently given, penalties awarded or penalty retakes Edited 4 March by turtmcfly Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess you need to count how many ‘sleeve’ handball goals have been allowed (eg Burnley’s at our place) and how many ‘sleeve’ offside (as opposed to the armpit from last season) have been disallowed ......a story of unintended consequences.....

What was 'perfectly good' about that when he's proved to be offside?

By the way, I’m trying to discuss this with you here so no need for the sarcasm. Are you saying then that VAR hasn’t impacted on numbers of goals scored, but disallowed? Aren’t the figures clear?
