I agree. It’s fact not opinion. I’ve seen some pretty horrific decisions via VAR when it comes to fouls and sending offs. More often than not the ref gives the right decision and then VAR change his mind - not the replay.
I can’t remember which ref said it, but he said something along the lines of his decisions were sometimes made on instinct, rather than what he could actually see.
VAR is a farce as they say they won’t re-ref a game, yet, that’s exactly what is happening.
Why can’t it be like rugby where the ref asks them to check a situation?
The funniest bit about all of this is that managers, players and clubs moaned about decisions. They begged for VAR. Now they moan about VAR. instead of focussing on their own inadequacies. I didn’t watch it but by all accounts Forest were dog **** yesterday.
