tarapoa Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I thought VAR would help solve the scandalous bias that is Scottish football officialdom. Sadly, whilst it remains subjective, if anything it just adds to the problems. Keep it for binary stuff like offside or goal-line decisions - otherwise just get it in the bin asap. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You thought that opening up decisions to MORE referees with clear and obvious biases would improve decision making? You poor innocent fool. More sensible ones among us could see this train coming clear as day. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With VAR, playing a low block is always going to be risky. Aberdeen should have kept two forwards on, especially with us being weak at the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they’ll admit they got it wrong in a few months time. That’s ok isn’t it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today you were on the receiving end. Even stevens. Oh dear - using the latest in years of corrupt officialdom in favour of Sevco/former rangers to vent on a St Mirren grievance. Despite that being one of our post-Euro apocalyptic Sunday performances at Paisley, I’m still annoyed VAR didn’t even look at the pen shout for us a minute after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STFU_Donny Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Haven’t seen the penalty incident back yet but radio said it was a shirt pull so if it’s a pen then far enough BUT I guarantee if it was down the other end, there is not a hope in hell that VAR would intervene if the ref missed it in real time. Thought Walsh had a fairly decent game, let the game flow and let some challenges go. Cantrell should’ve been booked but Shinnie could’ve been booked too in first half. Draw probably fair result, we rode our luck in second half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sortmeout Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 If you can still do this at this stage of the competition (as I think Livingston did earlier in the season at Ibrox) Aberdeen should refuse to pay their share of the VAR cost for the League Cup final and play the game without VAR. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well no apparently one Celtic fan answered me in a thread that was deleted by the time I got back from my own game and then Celtic fans deflected and abused me for a fortnight until their own board basically said what I said and a bit more as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
