LIVIFOREVER Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) Premiership teams bringing in Maasai warriors coaches for how to jump in the box to not concede penalties for next season. Edited May 21, 2023 by LIVIFOREVER 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 VAR in la liga last night cherry picking an image from a set of handbags to send off a player being racially abused. A classic example of VAR losing all context of a situation and seeking to send somebody off, this time with really bad consequences for the game, particularly in Spain. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim McLean's Ghost Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 If they can't tell that ball is over the line then how can they even pretend to call a marginal offside decision 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not use the offside lines to see if the ball is over? Maybe they did. I think it looks over the line, but I also think it's fair enough that it wasn't given because I can't say for certain that it was. But, as you say, we could say that about a lot of offside decisions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goals (or no goals) are based solely on the pictures. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I argued at length when VAR was introduced that they couldn’t use offside lines to determine goals (or not). I think today proves I was right. If they were able to use the lines, they’d have shown them as they do for offside. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His foot is 6 inches behind the goal line and his leg is angled backwards from his foot. Unless the ball is 2 foot wide it's in ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good half a yard of difference there when the foot is in contact with the ball and a player is sprinting forward while a defender is stepping up. Regardless, VAR is a crime against humanity and needs permanently removing from the game.
