Zatman Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 I have said many times before that the Premier League is corrupt and tonight absolutely proves it. Scummy corporation and I will be so happy to get out of this league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevo985 Posted July 10, 2020 Author VT Supporter Share Posted July 10, 2020 I know I’ve been massively wrong about how effective VAR would be. But this is yet another example of the technology working, but massive incompetence meaning it’s used appallingly. I don’t know what they’re playing at 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theboyangel Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) Last night’s shocking decision may not have affected the end result as ManUre are on a rich vein of form, however the impact it had on our players, who were arguably playing well up to that point was devastating. the mentality of being in a relegation battle and then having every decision go against you must crush what little confidence there is. the ‘apology’ from VAR is as empty as it is useful. I guarantee we’ll have a penalty decision this weekend overturned due to ‘over-examination’ by VAR...

bobzy Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 I just can't understand why the decisions aren't being overturned. I thought VAR would be a good thing, but it's actually turning me completely off football. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudevillaisnice Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 A couple of errors you can understand.. however from the start it’s been an absolute shames and not just for us. To using millimetres to rule out goals which aren’t obvious (see goal vs Burnley) to obvious errors (see penalty yesterday). The cynic in me thinks it’s happening far too often (not just against us) to think it’s just “errors”. They are quick to come out afterwards to say they made a mistake but what’s the punishment? Nothing from what I can see. They can quite easily get it purposely wrong and say “oh yeah I probably shouldn’t have given this”.. no consequences at all. If anything it’s called the games integrity into question more rather than the opposite. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought VAR would be a good thing, but it's actually turning me completely off football. There has been a massive reluctance all season to overturn decisions. Almost like VAR is being used primarily to justify the decisions that refs make. It's massively broken. I still think the primary mistake they're making is not letting the refs use the screens. That should be how it works. That way all VAR is doing is telling the ref you MIGHT have made a mistake there. Then let the referee review his own decision with different camera angles. If he still makes the wrong decision then fair enough, it'll never be perfect. But at least it'll be more consistent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Not sure which rag he said it in because I only saw it in a Schmeichel tweet - Peter Walton has said that VAR isn't there to make correct decisions it's only there to see if the ref made a clear and obvious error So in other words last night was the wrong decision but you can see why moss gave it so the decision stands What an absolute load of bollocks Its there so you can see it from different angles and slower speeds helping to make the right decision How the **** are the PL getting it so wrong?

Zatman Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 Definitely smells of corruption. I bet Moss would have went over to the machine if it was McGinn on Maguire As for Moss how has this clown be allowed ref for so long atrocious and unfit ref Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
