      The Kop / Re: Premier League clubs to vote on scrapping VAR
      « Last post by billythered on Today at 03:33:38 pm »
      I donā€™t know how many times I have said that the PGMOL are the real problem and NOT the VAR system, hence the ppl using it and how ??

      In the Investec European Rugby Union Competition they bring in referees from Europe, usually French, but thatā€™s for another debate, the point Iā€™m making is the use of Referees from outside of the UK, IE; Champagne League refs to work in the Premier League and our own Refs going the other way so that can learn and come into line with the rest of Europe,

      The PGMOL have far too much sway in the VAR box, and therefore too much influence altogether, also the interpretation of one Ref will differ from another, in certain circumstances/incidents, in a word there is far too much/ many inconsistencies,

      VAR is here to stay, unless of course 14 or more clubs veto it altogether, which I doubt would happen, but it does need to be realigned properly to ensure it works as itā€™s designed to and not be implemented by the PGMOL to suit their agendaā€™s, ie; Refs scratching each others backā€™s !!

      Conversations between the onfield Ref and VAR should be audible, not only on your tv at home but in the Stadia on the day, in American football you can clearly hear the Ref/line judge, so why not in our own domestic game, if the tech is there use it ??

      The questions that really need to be answered is why not, we have goal line tech in use, so why arenā€™t they using everything there is tech wise to ensure everything is covered, anything that assists the referee in this ever evolving game has to be used, ppl will say if we did use everything tech wise at our disposal we may as well get rid of refs altogether, I dunno about that but we certainly donā€™t use as much as we can at the moment and thatā€™s not getting the job done properly is it ??

      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 itā€™s always down to interpretation- and a qualified referee has agreed whilst watching multiple angles and slow moā€™s 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

      Itā€™s very ā€œclearā€ when a referee has made a clear and obvious error and the Doku challenge wasnā€™t one

      Think weā€™ll get ahead in this, then Jurgens subs, trying to get everyone minutes second half, is likely give wolves some incentive.

      But who actually cares today 🤛

      Still gone for 4:1

      Have to remember the pitch ref sees the incident in real time and very often gets his view blocked or at a bad angle. A quick review at pitch side by the pitch ref would speed up the whole process. Would also give the clubs an democratic right of appeal. Quick and easy. Lot less delay and no more misinterpretations....Mr .England take note.

      The Captains appeal system would also cut out a lot of the 'we were cheated' complaints.
