It's absolute. Either get rid of VAR or change the offside law to give forwards room for error
That's why I suggested we need the equivalent of an umpire's call for marginal decisions. The offside rule stays the same, but where VAR intervenes changes. Technically the ref's decision may still be incorrect, but if it's close then that's just accepted as part of the game.
There is absolutely no way that will fly. Offside is offside is offside. If it is offside you have to give it. It's absolute
Wherever you define offside as being it will still be the same problem as you can still measure it exactly.
I do say in my original post that there will still be some tough, unlucky, marginal decisions even with my idea. But, the point I'm trying to make (perhaps poorly) is that a player who can't keep a single part of his body onside deserves to be flagged or his goal ruled out no matter the marginality. A player who has only been caught with his toenail offside (like Coventry on Sunday) and has a goal ruled out doesn't deserve to have that goal chalked off. And, again, when the lawmakers were writing the offside law there is no way they'd know that VAR would get things down to ridiculously small margins.
A player, like the Cov forward the other day, didn't gain any unfair advantage therefore you have to give attackers more margin for error and to allow the spirit of the law to be maintained
Either change the law or ditch VAR
Or give teams one review per game - right or wrong they only get one and, once used up, they have to go with the on-field decision. Benefit of the doubt given to attackers
