    Ref watch

    This morning,ex ref and both pundits agree that the Isak incident was never a pen,VAR looked at it 20 times and still got it wrong.
    More than one incident in the Spurs v Brighton game VAR got wrong again.Spurs could get into the Champions League due to these errors.

    Yep. Huge implications for Brighton if they miss out because of VAR's incompetence.

    I say 'incompetence' but this is the third apology letter they've received so far...

    Id be surprised if Brighton didn't have lawyers looking into this on the hush.

    There's only so much incompetence that a club can take, if it costs them a CL league spot, for one of the cartel, it wont end well

    and the floodgates will open. There's something amiss, how can our refs get it so wrong when all the other countries get get it right

    Has refereeing always been this bad or are we just spending more time analysing it now?

    With VAR we demand 100% correct decisions. Is this making things seem worse?

    VAR replay and look at every angle a number of times and still get it wrong.There is a serious problem with VAR referees.

    Believe me, NO ONE has lawyers looking into it.

    It would be front page / Back page news
