Week after week we keep on seeing these ridiculous VAR/referee collusions but it always seems to be in favour of the so-called BIG teams.

Atwell, Hooper and Taylor should be nowhere near the EPL.
Sorry BT, it is VAR that should be nowhere near any football league.
These officials have worked their way up through the football ranks to be able to officiate at the top level, however, on their way up to their current level, they have been refereeing to Laws of the Game which stood the test of time in the main, until the introduction of VAR. Since then, Laws have been manipulated and changed to accommodate VAR and the game is far worse because of it.

I know several good referees, performing at FL level, who really love the game and who have other jobs. They have no desire to obtain promotion to the top level because they will no longer be in charge.
