    Pretty sure Van Dyjk did his acl making a tackle when the linesman should have flagged a couple of minutes earlier

    So am I, as I think Dan James goal would have been offside yesterday, var always found a way to chalk off a Leeds goal, usually one of bamfords.

    Luton v Blades, glad Blades won, but the Luton penalty?? The ball hits the back of the head (rotected by his arm) if a player who is facing away from the path of the ball.

    Neither that nor the Blades penalties were penalties. VAR should be scrapped, end of.

    It’s not VAR itself. It’s the unknowledgeable cretins who read it and make the decisions.

    The average bloke in the pub with a pint in his hand can make a better call.

    Why can’t the so called paid professionals do it.

    Or, heaven forbid, would some of them be biased

    All of which would be rendered academic if they put the whole expensive sh1tload in the bin and we accepted (as we used to) that refs and linesmen make mistakes. Technology will always be a problem as long as you have f00kwits responsible for its implementation and operation, take it from one who knows.

    If the championship had var, I expect bamfords goal yesterday would have been ruled out, if that goal had stood against us I’d have been pretty annoyed, seems it works both ways…or not, whichever the case may be.

    Do you mean the one he clearly put in with his elbow. 👋 The ref was a real homer and reading the match thread you have the REV and CB calling him allsorts of names with their biased views. 🙄
    Thas football for you. 🤣
