VAR bear with me

[Poshgit]

Do you agree that VAR was a good idea in principle
Big But , it’s too slow , spoils tempo of game
Different staff each game so decisions seem to vary game to game
All fans seem to think and maybe justifiably that decisions favour the big teams
Supposing the human element was replaced with Ai ? It could learn from all the existing footage of games , a panel could decide the parameters of trickier decisions and it would be a lot quicker ,not capable of favourtism
Might also call out the epidemic of Diving
I ‘ll get my coat ….

Personally I think its bigger than VAR.

Var of course has LOTs of issues, but its also severely hampered by the laws around what it can get involved with, and what it can change.

The biggest issue with me is just highlighted by VAR, its a complete inability to apply any common sense and consistency. In one game a pen will be given for next to nothing, and in the next game (for example) Rice can have 2 arms wrapped round an attacked AND handball it and get away with it.

It blows my mind now obvious some of this stuff is.

EVERY weekend there are a handfull of completely ludicrous decisions that VAR look at and somehow miss
