I have been proven right. I remember starting this campaign. I remember being told various things. VAR would only be used for clear and obvious things, so what am I complaining about? Wrong VAR will eliminate incorrect decisions, we can get back to talking about the football? Wrong VAR works...

By the way, my "silly agenda" would be taking football back to the game you and almost every other user on this forum fell in love with. My "silly agenda" means scrapping a failing technology not working.

Your attempt to make me look like the idiot here is hilarious. I understand semi-automation perfectly. You cannot automate subjective decisions like free kicks and yellow cards. You're being petulant because I keep being proven correct about VAR, game after game.

I do actually Jonathon. You were responding to someone saying that VAR will be used for free kicks, corners and yellow cards. Do you think that will be automated too?

You do know humans run the tech right?

@Johnny75. Just wondering if you've realised VAR will never work in a subjective game yet

The answer to VAR being rubbish is they want more VAR 🙄 It has killed the sport and lots of people can see that.

VAR working wonders tonight :ROFLMAO:

I'm not giving you a lesson about VAR. Ultimately there's a range of opinions from my Scrap it, to people who want to change it, to some people who are all for it. My position is (obviously) scrapping it and the point of the thread was welcoming anyone who agreed to get involved in the...

@Tony Towner not looking to offend. There is two distinct meanings of the word and it fits one of the meanings to me.

I would certainly at least like the banning of slow motion for handball decisions. It should all be irrelevant because VAR should not exist. It's a cancer on the sport.

It's not THE issue, but for handballs in my opinion slow motion makes things look far more deliberate than they look real time. Honestly I think some of the handballs VAR has given are so utterly ridiculous. Defenders defending with their arms behind their back is just another sign the sport...

Correct decisions are often subjective because football's laws were designed to be interpreted rather than black and white. Causes a major problem if we are now saying there is an outright "correct" answer. I've seen on twitter for example where half of people think something is a penalty and...

1) Agree 2) and 3) Very difficult to implement, would likely slow the game down more and frustrate fans in stadiums more 4) Opens referees up to embarrassing gaffes, but could work. If you're in favour of VAR, I would say you should have an idea of who you think should run it. Whether that be...

Out of genuine interest, what changes would you make to VAR? And which referees would run VAR?

I'm just pointing out you are criticising me for not sourcing my arguments, when several people on the other side have done this also. I'm not trying to be rude, but for 100+ years and to this day in every single of our divisions below the Premier League, fans do just accept marginal offsides...

Interesting how you haven't called out anyone on your own side for their baseless, non-sourced opinions. Secondly, yes. But people were adults and accepted that if you were level you were basically onside and the benefit of the attack was given to the attacker.

Johnny will love this because it's from a University! https://www.bath.ac.uk/announcements/motion-capture-reveals-why-var-in-football-struggles-with-offside-decisions/

If we are going to rule goals out over millimetres (which I believe is totally ridiculous), then you are right using the 50pfs is ridiculous. And considering goals are currently being ruled out over millimetres, scandalous.
