    VAR rule

    Needs changing for next season from being used to ‘overrule obvious mistakes from the on field referee’ to ‘offer countless replays, thus delaying the game for minutes and as such breaking the flow of the game to the advantage of one of the teams’

    Fed up with it, man and big Al had a good point.

    Give them 15 seconds and one replay. If they can’t decide with that then it wasn’t an obvious mistake.

    its supposed to be 'clear and obvious' mistakes, with the advantage to the attacker.

    It wasn't a penalty but the ref in real time thought it was.

    That should have been a quick check or an on field decision.

    This check lasted 8 weeks and completely derailed the momentum of the match.

    Not an excuse to why we lost but it's this is not a benefit to the sport or as entertainment.

    Hs to be improved. Better people more automation less human interaction/interpretation of the rules.

    Rules are rules the Refs/VAR crocks don't even seem to know the basics and it's getting worse.

    It definitely hit his leg first but are you certain it didn’t then hit the arm?
    I saw no replay from the side, just from the front. The former would have clarified unless a player was in the way.

    Just realized that of it did hit his leg first then the hand then it can’t be a penalty (I think???) and so you’re right.

    the only angle we saw was from the front.

    Either way it's just all garbage, the standard of Refs & the Garbage of VAR.
