VAR

[dt17]

For those conspiracy theorists, I'd say VAR gives biased refs less place to hide as they can't claim they didn't see something after watching it being replayed a 100 times.

Exactly.

Isnt the C/o a video referee ?

She/he/they seem to be pretty good at hiding every time broony whacks someone.

Should have had VAR in 1967, at least one of their goals v Inter was offside

You think conroy would have looked at the var and allowed us the Llorente goal had it been morelos? No chance.

We would have been through verses Spartak, we would have got 3 points at Dundee. Aberdeen wouldn't have had a penalty at Pittodrie, Hibs' goal wouldn't have stood against us due to the foul beforehand. I can't say anything about the scum but at least it would be highlighted against them.

How did it kill the game? It made the correct decision meaning the right team went through...if anything it added more drama.

How did the correct team go through?

Erikson's pass gets diverted by Silva - was Argeuro offside then or was it when Erikson passed the ball?

Football is a spontaneous sport not phuckin scrabble or chess.

The correct team went through because the goal was offside. The last touch came off Silva, at which point Aguero was offside.

Are you saying you'd be happy for Rangers to get knocked out of a European quarter final because 'football is spontaneous' ?

How badly do we need this in Scotland. I am not been biased but this even itself out pish is just that. The amount of bad decsions we have had this season is just insane.
The sooner we have it in Scotland the better.

How can you not like it. You cant just complain becuase it goes against your teams. Ok the handball one was bad against City but even aftre seeing it 100 times people are 50/50 if the goal should have stood or been chopped off. But the winning goal was offside and it was the correct decision so you cannot say just because its the 92nd minute that VAR is bad. It done its job.

The worst argument against it is that it's ruining the celebration of goals. It's utter nonsense.

Everyone still celebrates the same, the VAR comes after... If anything and the goal stands you get to celebrate again. If it's correctly ruled out what can you complain about?

Off topic, slightly, but it's all open to interpretation. Watched the NHL playoff tonight where Toronto ML were given a goal v Boston after review and later Calgary (different game) were denied a similar goal after being reviewed also. Diabolical decision. Incedently these reviews are taken place in Toronto. This won't ever work in Scotland
