If VAR had been in operation on Saturday then the referee could have reviewed the incident and one would imagine there would have been a different outcome with the penalty not awarded and the player booked.Whether of course this should be a 'Red' or 'Yellow' is debateable with other factors bring taken into consideration and would need a 'Law' change. That said, VAR is not a panacea, with subjectivity perhaps leading to more controversy.The technology is available but how it is used is open to debate with the devil being very much in the detail. The use of VAR would need to be carefully designed oc course but FFS it would be hard to make the quality of decision-making any worse than it is now.

You can't "adjust results accordingly". There is a whole world of gambling /the pools / winning / losing / drawing etc that revolves around the final score. Rightly or wrongly the result at the end of the game will always stand.
We have CCTV/video play-back technology, and this should be used. Cheats should be put in stocks outside selhurst because CHEATS (and I include Snodgrass) should be fcked right off

Perhaps this is why Koeman wouldn't pick Niasse or give him a locker. As well as getting banned he's been an embarrassment to his club.

VAR is essential to stop situations like this. A review of the dive would have resulted in no pen and a yellow card which would have later seen Niasse sent off for his next yellow card offence. 1-0 up against 10 men !! This would stop all the feeling of injustice now and other teams benefitting instead of us. Even if the VAR decision had been for a pen it would’ve been final and an end to it.

Referees get 98% of decisions right which of course is a high percentage. Of course on occasions the the 'Big' decisions can be called into question but I can understand the reasons from a referee's perspective. When players seek to deceive the referee in the penalty area (And outside) perhaps the focus of ire should be trained on them.It almost seems as though simulation is part of their daily training !!!!

That would suit you wouldn't it? Deflect the attention from the people whose job it is to stop players cheating. It is precisely because the standard of refereeing is so poor that these players get away with it. I've explained why that 98% isn't as impressive as it sounds already but I guess you took no notice of that because it didn't suit your agenda. Edited by chateauferret (23 Nov 2017 11.32am)

Edited by chateauferret (23 Nov 2017 11.32am) I was criticised for not producing hard facts and when I do I get pilloried and the facts are discredited. Now who is talking about an 'Agenda' ? Regards "Deflection" all the focus on HOL has been centred on the referee so I'm not taking any lectures about my so called stance on the matter. I really don't accept that refereeing standards in the PL are "So poor".Of course in the modern game referees need assistance and would welcome the introduction of technology to assist them.

Willo All to do with angles and the referees view. Happens very fast and the referee has to consider if any contact was made and the degree of contact etc etc.Trust me, it can be very difficult - we see incidents umpteen times in 'Slow-Mo'.

A huge amount rides on the big decisions in football, literally millions of Pounds Of course some clubs train people to cheat and sledge referees and - as it appears we don't - more fool us. If it's impossible to train referees well enough to make them reasonably fool-proof then they need help. In general rugby referees make fewer big mistakes despite having a more complex game. Yet in their case they also brought in video assistance. It is outrageous in the technological age that football hasn't dealt with this many many years ago.

This is 100% correct. From my view in the Holmesdale near the tunnel, it was an obvious and outrageous dive. Interested to know the thoughts of fans sitting in the AW with the same view as the ref.

I didn't discredit the only fact you've actually given except to observe that it comes from PGMOL and appears in an article clearly designed as an apology for s*** referees so is hardly impartial. However, faute de mieux. What I did do was point out that five mistakes per match still meas, conservatively speaking, 25% or so of matches being perverted by officials' errors and that is really quite s***e. I think you'll also find that 90%+ of those decisions are totally routine such that my cat could call them correctly. If you think that amounts to your being "pilloried" I suggest you get psychiatric help. Edited by chateauferret (23 Nov 2017 12.53pm)
