I can only imagine the FA, UEFA and FOFA like the controversy it creates a high keeps football in the spot light but eventually it will turn people off.
Even Mitrovic seemed to be saying it wasn’t a red
But only after he went down as if he'd been hit square in the face by Mike Tyson.Quote:

Mitrovic is a cheating ****, always was, always will be, horrible nast dirty cheat.
And another sh1te decision by VAR in Blades v Chelsea. When will this nonesense end?
Debate this morning on talk sport....
Only person talking sense is Simon jordan
Danny murphy says he can live with VAR but does not like the offside element...
Errrr that's the offside rule Danny and not VAR
Now we have fans coming on
Err get rid its ****e
These are the same buffoons who where blaming refs before VAR
VAR is a piece of Tech it ain't the Ref
Some on here are blaming VAR for Fulham V West Ham Get it right its mike dean and the buffoon upstairs who made the decision not VAR
As I type Mike Dean has got it wrong and the red card has been over turned
So bloody VAR did not make the decision it was mike bloody dean
Blaming VAR is lazy
The blame is how we are using VAR that is the authorities and the Refs
But there again we could go back to the 75 euro cup final and have great decisions like that
What you going on aboutQuote:

Not talking about the offside, talking about the penalty. What is the keeper supposed to do when he's going down for the ball and making himself as low and wide as possible, defy the laws of physics and stop before the attacker hits him? The Chelsea player knew he had played the ball too far and would never retrieve it, so rather than jump over the keeper (which he clearly had time to do) left his legs in a position where Ramsdale couldn't avoid contact. THAT is clear from VAR footage but rather than leave "as is" or perhaps penalise the Chelsea player, he gives a penalty.Quote:

As for blaming refs when they appear to get it wrong, sure, been like that since football started up, so what, they choose to be referees, nobody twisting their arm to wear the black kit. Perhaps if as a body they were seen to be making representations to the powers that be to improve both the rules AND the use of VAR I'd have some sympathy with them, but they don't and I haven't.
