That's just as likely to be open to bias as anything. Do you honestly think that VAR would have found a Utd player a toenail offside if the positions had been reversed. I don't.If you can prove that it's a big factor in referees underperforming then I'm all for action to stamp it out - what's your evidence though?
The status quo seems pretty good to me....if you want to tinker further with how to officiate the world's most popular game then be my guest, VAR is working just great after all.
I was being sarcastic about VAR, I think it’s dreadful.That's just as likely to be open to bias as anything. Do you honestly think that VAR would have found a Utd player a toenail offside if the positions had been reversed. I don't.
just watched frame by frame, and the only possible foul is a penalty to BTA for holding by the defender , the only player to touch the keeper was also the defender - Hackett is a complete knob
Just read on the Football Insider website that:
"Coventry were rightly disallowed a second goal in normal time before being taken to extra time and penalties in their FA Cup third round win over Sheffield Wednesday, Keith Hackett has said."
Three guesses where Keith Hackett is from... you got it in one... Sheffield!
Make everyone play in their birthday suit?I like the idea of VAR the implementation of it is horrible and takes far too long. I do believe the refs are swayed by the big teams and I think the var should make a decision without knowing which team it’s for.
He apparently says he would have disallowed the winner and the one that was disallowed on Saturday (although reading the text I’m not sure he does say that).

Keith Hackett has always been poor in his decisons and even worse as a "pundit" how he ever got to be heirachy in the game says much about hte people in charge ...Game is gone if he thinks the winner was a foul on the keeper, might aswell be playing netball at this point.
Even Ellis 2nd one there’s a debate. Keeper never had either of them under control and once he’s spilled the ball simms has every right to challenge.
Is he on crack?He apparently says he would have disallowed the winner and the one that was disallowed on Saturday (although reading the text I’m not sure he does say that).

He doesn't even know the LOTG... This was another of his gems at the weekend:

How would they do that? Blindfolded? AI may have a role but even that would know FMU.I like the idea of VAR the implementation of it is horrible and takes far too long. I do believe the refs are swayed by the big teams and I think the var should make a decision without knowing which team it’s for.

The shit keepers appeal for now is unreal. The clown that QPR had in goal was literally up in arms at every corner for literally no reason.I read that in disbelief.
Beadle was highly rated on here before we signed Dovin and he’s been let off for 2 goals this year alone against us. I don’t particularly rate him.
For our winner on Saturday, he could’ve parried the ball anywhere but across his goal. All Simms had to do was get in front of him and he did before burying the chance. Frankly, it’s awful keeping and that shouldn’t be protected by referees.
Yeah he just mentioned inconsistencyHe apparently says he would have disallowed the winner and the one that was disallowed on Saturday (although reading the text I’m not sure he does say that).

Allison for Liverpool was the same when a wolves player had the temerity to stand motionless in the box, Alison then sorted of jumped into him, it's a farce. The level of protection they get is obscene, especially when you consider that they often fly into punches, clearing out all in front of them.
It’s defenders now too! Lati is bad for flopping over and he gets caught out in bad positions. He needs to cut it out of his game!
Members of the jury, I present Richard Keogh. He was doing that almost 15 years ago!
Yep, same also for anywhere on the pitch tbh. How often do you see a CDM fall on the ball when they've been caught on the ball fannying about.It’s defenders now too! Lati is bad for flopping over and he gets caught out in bad positions. He needs to cut it out of his game!
It's so blatant, I have no idea how refs can't see itAbsolutely hate the CB flop and all forms of “playing for the foul” “waiting for a touch” or whatever. It’s simulation and should be a booking every time.
The Bobby push is an interesting one. He did literally push the defender but the defenders reaction was OTT I always find it funny/infuriating when you see a player suddenly loose control of their legs due to contact on the upper torso.It always used to be the case that if you blocked a keeper in the 6 yard box that that would be blown
It is a minefield
My lad who refs says that if an attacking player blocks the keeper he would always blow.
If you get the time watch saka against qpr
It seems like he blocks the keeper on person and moves to block the run early in the game to check what the ref will give and when it’s given he just stands his ground which is why the free kick wasn’t given for the last one
I think he could have called the push by Bobby but it would have been soft
It's so blatant, I have no idea how refs can't see it
and then giving away the free kick for i can only guess, taking his shirt offNot just that but then you’ll get CBs shoving strikers every time they go up for a header and it’s never given, or Bobby Thomas having his shirt taken off. It’s all so arbitrary.

Is that seriousFeel like there should be a training course for refs where they’re shown staged actual pushes/trips so they can see what it looks like because they fall for some absolute nonsense.
Is that serious
Well once one team is down the 6 the game is abandonedPartly. Like some of the obvious dices are just physically impossible given where they were apparently pushed from. But basically I’d have every game ending with three men aside cos I’ve double booked everyone for making the most of the slightest touch.
