"It's like..."
I'm fairly sure we are the only country who uses VAR like this, and I'm fairly sure it's down to our referees being too stuck up their own arses to accept that it helps them correct their mistakes rather than helps them prove they never make any.This version of VAR is absolute gash.
If blatant penalties can't be awarded as penalties then whats the feckin' point?
I think it was @noodlehair that said it feels like games are now going to be decided on whatever arbitrary reason that VAR people are going to decide to get involved in and what not to get involved in... which is spot on really. VAR has somehow managed to make games less fair then they were previously... which is quite remarkable when you think about it.
It's either that or it's deliberately being fecked up to prevent it making things more fair. Which seems ridiculous but when you use a video ref to deliberately get things wrong there isn't a lot of room to hide. Every mistake that VAR doesn't correct you can no longer consider a "mistake".
