....3 independent var refs all highlight a clear error, within 30 secs of the error, all have to agree, if they dont refs decision stands. The var refs the have no comms between each other, it would be so rare for them to intervene as to almost take VAR out of the game, but pick up the howlers. There is no perfect system, my system would miss mistakes, there would be times when people couldnt understand why they didnt agree......but I think its as good as it gets.
I seem to be on my own though...nobody else likes it or recognise my genius. Previous Message
I'm probably no different to most, I'd keep some minimally-invasive version of VAR that doesn't suck the life out of the immediacy of the game, if it's possible. If it's not, bin it.
But either way, the broadcasters will keep analysing every on-field decision within an inch of its life, farming anger for clicks. And fans will lap it all up while they lose their tiny minds on social media. The only difference will be whether a man in a box with a desktop and a headset is included in the paranoid ranting.
Honestly, fans these days are far fucking worse than anything officials are doing on the pitch or their monitors. There is less and less decent discourse about football now outside of endless, pointless, and mostly ill-informed jibberish about match decisions.
