Anyone else suspicious of these findings? on 12:41 - Jul 11 with 652 views | Steve_M | It will never be superb because too many decisions in football are subjective. Yes, I don't find those figures convincing either - most football fans I know who watch the game regularly hate the concept. I do note though that this might include goal line technology, a simple fix which has the advantage of being both instantaneous and not affecting the flow of the match. | |

No. Not suspicious at all.. Edit - ah, I see they have presented a yes/no question as a 'to what extent'. So anyone who partially agrees counts as fully agreeing. [Post edited 11 Jul 2019 12:51]

I can see it being superb if they get to a point where a VAR ref is watching the match from multiple ankles at 5-10 second intervals behind the play and can immediately advise the ref when something obvious has been missed (a trip, elbow, handball etc) and can leave the ref to it the rest of the time. Like you, I am sceptical as to whether the powers that be would have any interest in what makes football enjoyable for the fans, rather than just making sure the more marketable sides have more opportunities to progress. | |
