Why? To give the (I hate this term) sky6 an advantage over the 38 games? To give the betting syndicates an edge? It is very apparent that it is not to make the beautiful game even better. Dyche should be taking VAR to court, the ref and stockley park will say that you can't get them all right, correct, no point at all, scrap it. I've mentioned a few times. People who know me on here know I'm not into conspiracies or anything like that. But, The way VAR is being used, the shadowy nature of PGMOL, able to just say and do whatever they want. It's harder and harder to ignore 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was amazed the first time I heard him talk just how well spoken he was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is so much money in gambling and football that it only seems logical from that perspective. VAR feels more like matchfixing than a tool to help making the correct decisions at this point.

Its a simple game of 22 heroes, 1 T1T and 2 helpers, running up and down a field playing a great game, leave it alone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, the game, same as in society needs levelling up and not making it easier for the rich to get away with what they do. This is off topic, sorry mods, but its happening and that land grab that ManU and liverscum tried to pull off whilst the leagues are seemingly on their knees has gone unpunished, they need stringing up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Moyes full Steve Bruce mode. We are coming up against a "footballing side" so despite greater resources and players we cant possibly hope to compete. 3 DMs. Five at the back. Pray.

Moyes likes the extra defensive player to support the back 7 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes full Bruce mode. In a group of 6 clubs (Newcastle, them, Sheff U, Burnley, West Brom and Palace) who are averaging around 40% possession or less per game. All other clubs have closer to 50% or more. We have about 51% Meaningless stat without context and certainly Wet Spam seem to be this years Sheffield U getting a lot out of very little. With the players they have they should be able to play football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sne Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 Thank god, was expecting another one where a attacking player should have had to chop off his arms for the goal to stand but where the same player would have gotten away with it in his own box.
