VAR is hilarious man. 21:32 - Nov 25 with 1735 views | Asa | How can they look at that and decide it’s fine. Wilson about to head in from two yards out when the defender, not even looking at the cross in, puts his arms around Wilson and jumps on top of him and bundles him to the floor and stops him getting the header without even attempting to play the ball. Utterly ridiculous. [Post edited 25 Nov 2024 21:32]

Who in my opinion got it wrong there! |  | |  |

There's subjectivity in the ref's on field decision, subjectivity in the VAR's decision, and then subjectivity in whether the error is sufficient that VAR should intervene. They keep moving the thresholds to find the balance, but it's just become a hot mess of completely inconsistent rulings week to week. |  | |  |

Yep. And the irony is, its the big decisions that the ref misses that VAR was brought in to eradicate. PGMOL at the moment isn't fit for purpose. |  |

All of which make it increasingly easy to suspect bias and corruption within Football, there most probably isn't, but the PGMOL are not doing themselves any favours by being so consistently inconsistent over basic easy decisions. |  | |  |
