The Kop / Re: Premier League clubs to vote on scrapping VAR
« Last post by Lallana in Pyjamas on Today at 02:52:49 pm »They didn't look at it as a 'clear & obvious' error. An appeal system would change the whole dynamic. It would rule out the ridiculous 'C & O' error nonsense. They only intervene when they judge the ref has made a howler and it's the inconsistency of that that causes a lot of the issues.
A penalty appeal is made, the Ref disallows it. Then there is verbal communication and VAR, in my opinion, take their lead from that. Oliver..Doku.."Coming together....and VAR were influenced by that and there was no way they were going to overrule Oliver and send him to the monitor.
So another injustice. But if the captains have a say and why shouldn't they. So VVD appeals...Oliver goes and studies the video. Clearly a penalty.
But clearly the ridiculous charade will carry on.
But itâs always down to interpretation- and a qualified referee has agreed whilst watching multiple angles and slow moâs to decided that the referees interpretation of the incident was ok
When it comes to those decisions it will be down to interpretation of the referee
And appeal process has the chance to be open to abuse - would just take one captain to appeal as the opposition is on the attack and they know there is trouble
Var needs
The semi automated system for offsides
And the VAR refs to be better and do their job better
Itâs very âclearâ when a referee has made a clear and obvious error and the Doku challenge wasnât one
