I don’t want the game to be that clinical, if the attackers body is offside I can accept that but half a foot is just ridiculous. Sadly we have ourselves to blame, the amount of complaints that the refs and linos got over the years has resulted in VAR being introduced. Just has taken the soul out of the gameI have said before, you could get a device so accurate, a player could be offside by the merest microfibre sticking out from his football sock
Just apply common sense and VAR is workable. At the moment, it is a farce and a joke.
Like there is no such thing as level. Apply the right, extreme micro technology and someone will always be off by a fraction of a micro millimeter.
Yep. Perfect word for it, Wingy. Overreach.I don't know if it's because I've caught a fair bit of Wolves on TV ,but christ they've been the victim of this on so many occasions this season.
At least,5 goals chalked off in big games.
You know it's s little off topic but it's a little worrying with the implementation of all technology employed in keeping us safe ,that we have nothing to fear if we're doing nothing wrong ,but this example of how overreach can creep in and missuse can bring about injustices.
But this is the problem, the conversation is who has been the luckiest compared to who hasn’t!I don't know if it's because I've caught a fair bit of Wolves on TV ,but christ they've been the victim of this on so many occasions this season.

Agreed.But this is the problem, the conversation is who has been the luckiest compared to who hasn’t!

Nowt wrong with VAR. It's the implication of VAR and the anal lengths it is taken to.
I agree with Covstu. Pardon the pun, but half a foot is a step too far.
I agree and have said the same. Put a time limit on it. I would even say 30 seconds. If you looked long enough you could always find the merest fraction in a tight decision.I agree the application of VAR has been shite (with part of me thinking this has been deliberate as those at the top have been so against it for so long) but it still doesn't sort out subjective decisions. Even making it clear and obvious is allowing subjective decision making.For me the only way for 'clear and obvious' to be quantified is a time limit any decision has 1 minute tops to be overturned - any longer it isn't clear and obvious and original decision stands.
I also think any VAR shouldn't be allowed to overturn an on-field decision - only refer it back for the on-field ref to decide.
It ain't rocket science.
This is ridiculous. the whole frame rate vs movement of player vs when is the ball actually played (when it touches the foot or forward pressure on the ball, especially when considering first time passes). Theres quite a big margin of error between frames.
