Because we're all sick to the backteeth of VAR
And I'm equally sick of yous whinging about it.
It's here, just put up with it. Like it or not, it's not going anywhere.
You really are wasting your time.
Anyway, I gave up with his "logic" sometime ago.
Fair enough. Next VAR debate...
"I don't know..."
"I can't understand..."
"I've no idea why..."
He is wasting his time if he wants me to turn against VAR. Even if it isn't perfect all of the time, I would rather have it than not have it, there's just too much at stake. Yet again in the derby last week, it came to the rescue.
What’s annoying is in the past pre VAR when you went into the new week sure you’d mention the refs etc but the main topic of conversation was the football, players, managers etc… it seems every week now the main topic everyone talks about is VAR and refs and football is the secondary subject… sad really…
Like at work yesterday, we didn’t mention any of the football played etc we just talked about the rubbish referring and VAR involvements from the weekend, and that’s a group including a scouser, a scum and a oil baron fan… who’d usually be queuing up to rip each other, but instead we’re all finally in agreement, unfortunately that agreement being the refs and VAR are just simply not good enough… it’s ruined not only football but I feel the love for and chat for football in real life situations during the week… the magic, the banter… it’s all gone.
Football at the top level is not about magic or banter, it's serious business that means a lot to people.
If you don't want to talk about referees and VAR, then don't. But people do want to talk about it, so they will, because it generates debate. Turns out that everyone agreeing why City will win the league again for the 45th consecutive week in a row, is nowhere near that interesting.
The pub league has another three way promotion battle, and is poisoned every week with goals that shouldn't be given, and penalties that should have, because they're still too lazy to implement VAR, to see that however the battle ends up, justice is done. At least they'll have it at "the most expensive game in football", for the third year in a row.
