The Referree / Var thread..

[vanderark14]

Wow VAR did its job

Walsh couldn't wait to book Kingsley there and he was beyond delighted to give rangers a pen

[Toepoke]

Spurs v Chelsea was the peak of VAR.

VAR overturned a horrendous penalty decision last night during the PAOK v Dons match. The right decision was made by VAR but they still managed to make a complete ass of the process. The ref had no need to go to the monitor and waste another 3 or 4 minutes. VAR should just tell the ref its a blatant dive, he cheated so book the cunt............................Nope, VAR puts responsibility on to the ref who has to go to a small screen at the side of the pitch and then tell everyone what they knew 5 minutes prior. 

Incredibly the farce did not end there, the ref did not book the player for the dive, he just played on🤣

Im not sure a player can get a booking using VAR. Can only be used for a red as far as im aware.

That just makes it all even more fucked up

Was just about to post the same thing VA.. It makes no sense. You have a review panel to review an incident, why is a red card offence different from a penalty? Not a fan at all, it's a shambles. Even the 4-5 minute delay in the match can slow down the play. Get rid of it !!!

I understand the general reason behind not using VAR for yellow cards as it would take all day but if you are already looking at a penalty and find it to be a dive then I not only think it could be used to give a yellow, in order to discourage diving it should always be used to give a yellow. Otherwise its like a free hit for the attacking player.

I'd go one further and send the player off.

Punishment for the diver should be the same as would have been for the offender I.e. last man red card for foul should be red card for diver trying to get the foul.

Without wanting to sound like the red specs are on, seeing the various angles, was it Polvara, making the challenge? was shown to be a yard away from contact, yet the guy got away with it. 
 

Unfortunately, that’s football nowadays, two players I can think of that get away with it week after week is Duk (this season) and Kyogo (since he arrived) 

It needs stamped out and red cards issued for a blatant attempt of cheating. 

[vanderark14]

Here's a novel idea folks. How about getting rid of it and start teaching players to respect the game, the rules and the ref.

And therin lies the problem. Very few Fans, coaches and pundits alike all hate it when another player dives but don't say a thing when one of their own gains an advantage by diving therefore it will never change.

It's getting worse too, getting a man sent off and a foul seems more important than having a pop at goal.

VAR shows just how pointless it is again as a clear dive for yet another Rangers penalty goes unchallenged 🤷🏼‍♂️

That's a ridiculous penalty to give them

Second one was a stonewaller, but that 1st one was a disgrace.

Agree on both counts however we should probably have had another one.

Didn’t see the whole game, so can’t comment on that one. Only bits of the 2nd half, 1st pen I saw on twitter.

Totally agree. VAR just had to go

No point in having VAR if those watching the video don't overturn that man city oen and the 1st rangers penalty today.

Erm wrong Yawnoftime.... Sevco have a love affair with VAR... Fact !!!! It's no just the penalties awarded to Sevco, it's the diving, embellishment, cheating that VAR ignores to help them along also. No football team in the history of Mankind, has benefited more from VAR than the rangers !!!!!!
