« Last post by Harrisimo on Today at 09:15:26 am »Great player for us, great signing. Hope he gets a pitch side send off today. Arguable one of the great 'pick pocket' defenders, bit like the Ghost 'Chris Lawler'. They only realised they'd lost the ball about 5 yards further on into their run.
Thanks Joel. Good luck, long life.

The Kop / Re: Premier League clubs to vote on scrapping VAR
« Last post by Harrisimo on Today at 08:45:19 am »A bit like cricket, more time consuming but no one seems bothered about that these days. Obviously the captain will have so many seconds before he’s counted out. However, tricky to implement. The opposition could play/carry on within a nano nano second 🤷♂️
It's not time consuming and it's not tricky to implement. The fans can see the Red doing something. In fact it would be quicker and easier to do away with VAR. All VAR should do is goal line and offside,
Skipper 3 appeals, Pens and red card. Skipper appeals, ref quickly over to monitor, checks the angles etc gives the decision. The whole process is speeded up and it's part of the drama. As it is now everybody stands about, the crown don't know whether to laugh or cry and all kinds of mistakes are being made, It's a nonsense.
Most of the time consuming is actually over offside. Speed that up with technology, give the club the right of pitch appeal. After all it's the clubs and fans that matter. Clubs have millions on the line and they have no right of appeal. It's an ill thought system.
Skipper makes an appeal..loses it..much less whinging over it. VAR sometimes does a through check, sometimes they don't, sometimes they send the ref to the monitor, sometimes they don't. It's ludicrous.

« Last post by Harrisimo on Today at 08:32:48 am »But does the appeal system change anything? VAR looked at the Doku challenge and thought it was fair. What would us 'appealing' do? The VAR would still have said no pen?
No the Doku challenge wasn't looked at. The appeals I'm taking about is not to the VAR ref. It sends the match Ref direct to the monitor and the ref could quickly realise the error.
The biggest problem with VAR is the ludicrous 'clear & obvious ' error rule. It's not clearly defined and never can be. The solution is to give the power of appeal to the captain and to send the match ref to the pitch side monitor. It's not that time consuming, it would speed up decisions.
The Doku challenge was dismissed because Oliver said it was a 'coming together' VAR was heavily influenced by that, The captain appealing takes away the uncertainty surrounding the ludicrous 'clear & obvious' error tosh. It is the problem.
