I have always been and will always be in favour of technology being used in football, I'll always think VAR is a good idea. It is. 

 

But I don't think it's actually possible for the execution of it to be any worse than the Premier League. 

 

Not just VAR itself but the rules that go with, the constant tweaking of offside and handball rules making them progressively worse all the time. 

 

Just an absolute ****ing mess.

Tbf with that one I think you can argue its right, Pedro couldn't do much about it hitting his arm whereas sessegnon jumped in front of the ball. 

Penalty being the punishment is the ridiculous thing.

They need to remove the screen gimmick anyway, all it does is waste 5 minutes of being waiting about for him to do the exact decision we all know he’ll do so what is the point 

I've said this since day one. Adds nothing. The referee in the VAR room is perfectly qualified to stop the game from Stockley Park and tell the on-field referee that he's made a big error.

Who decides that ??  one man’s big error is another man’s not enough

What am absolute mess the handball rules are. Completely unfit for purpose. The officials haven't got a clue either. 

 

What happened to the arm being in a natural position? It never ever gets taken into account now. 

 

The only way they can justify not giving handball for Joao Pedro is that is was hit at him from too close and he couldn't do anything about it.

Scandalous decisions against Fulham and shame for Josh King. It makes me not miss the PL. Not the first time and won't be the last but this game has been massively over officiated and picked apart under a microscope

That’s not boycotting that’s just theft lol 

Huh? Would like to know what exactly do you think I'm stealing and from whom? If you're speculating I'm "illegally" streaming, it's far from it. Some of us have legal subscription packages from other countries (we have dual citizenship) and we're allowed to use them on the go with dedicated apps. Given the content we have access to, the football one comes to 10p per 3 months and I may be overstimating it.

Is the Wolves turd finally going to flush? 

We should be ok once Strand Larsen is back fit and we have the other striker through the door after his medical today (Tolu Arokudare - no me neither...). 

 

Also when Mosquera is ready to start games again at RCB he'll make a big difference, plus the new CB (Krejci - again..... me neither)

All of the streams I used to use last season have gone to shit. Anyway, looked like a dodgy Man U pen, then it cut off. Mount throws himself in front of Walker while competing for the ball and just flops to the floor.

You'd almost think they're deliberately screwing it up because they want to get rid of it or sumat :P :ph34r:
