I was a big fan, initially but I'm starting to think it may not be all it's cracked up to be?

Obviously, you want the right decisions to be made and you want fairness, too. The goal-line decision system works very well and hardly takes any time but I'm worried that the flow of games is going to be disrupted to the point where the game becomes like rugby union with long periods of standing around waiting for someone to check a decision...or even a 'non-decision' in the case today of the ref not giving a pen at first.

Now as it goes, I don't mind it in rugby as it can actually create drama but I'm only a casual fan of the sport and maybe I'd feel differently if it was 'my' sport.

Is every goal going to be 'quickly' checked for an infringement, every possible penalty? Does there come a point where you have to just accept that sometimes the ref can make mistakes and that's part and parcel of the game? I'm undecided, tbh and maybe the clincher would come if we either benefited from or fell foul of a VAR decision.

Thoughts?
