For my penny’s worth, for one weekend I absolutely love VAR, kept a smile on my face, masked a poor performance for us, they were good, but the sound of “who are ya “ being returned with interest, loved it

VAR will produce a level playing field, BUT it's run by idiots with no computer training

The interfering with play thing has always been something that irks me - clearly if an attacking player is on the field of play in the opponent's half then he is interfering with play, either directly to receive the ball or indirectly by running interference, giving the player with the ball an option or hoping for a rebound - in any event the defending team has to make efforts to nullify this attacking threat or option - To me there is some allowance that could be made where an attacker is laying on the floor with injury sustained from a previous attack, provided that player isn't laying in such a position to influence the attack, i.e inside the 6 yard box. Clarify the rules & get rid of the subjectivity of is he interfering with play or not - Originally posted by Willo Even then there is the issue of Interfering or not interfering etc etc.

I like the idea that VAR evens itself out for all the clubs. We have had some decisions go our way and against us, all the clubs will be having a right go about it as it ws brought in to try an end what the ref did or didn't see and award the correct decision. This is not happening as you are still relying on humans to award the decision from there perspective which will still give the wrong result in certain circumstances. if we can get Apple or Microsoft or a big tech company to create a perfect VAR which a computer makes the decision .... job done. For the time being I would bin VAR and go back to the ref either getting it right or wrong. COYP Record crowd 51,482 - The Whitehorse was rocking - Second Div Champs 1978 - 79 ... 'wot a night !

We now just have criticism and ire aimed at a collective of them safely tucked away somewhere for failing to do their job properly. The point of VAR was to remove subjectivity and make clearly evidenced, objective decisions. Them not even being able to do that with the technology has only reinforced general opinions of them and perhaps justified for many, their hate over the years. This weekend saw an inability to call offsides, understand what constitutes a red card and confusion as to whether an outfield player can use their arm to stop a shot destined for goal. Personally, I think we should have some type of 'Wheel of Fortune' spinning device to determine decisions. There'd probably be a greater percentage of correct calls plus far more entertainment. Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

There has always been the "Clear and obvious error" factor, accordingly it has always been known that subjectivity would enter the equation.

After every round of games, referees errors / judgement calls would be discussed. Now we have supplemented that with erroneous VAR calls. In a couple of the cases at the weekend, including the one in our game, citing '' human error '' is not enough. It was negligence. Old, Ungifted and White

Originally posted by Nicholas91 So offsides and handballs are subjective opinions now? Subjectivity does not generally enter the equation in terms of offside decisions. Whether a player is interfering or not can be open to interpretation and debate. Some handballs are clear-cut decisions but there can be some which are not and of course "Clear and obvious error" enters the equation.
