Simplified VAR

Post by Claret82 » Sun Aug 12, 2018 6:37 pm

I would love to see a simplified VAR in the Premier league.

For me all I want to see is mistakes that lead to goals or sending offs rectified.

I would do this by playing the game as normal with decisions being made by referees and lines people but whenever a sending off happens it is checked and whenever a goal happens it is checked - simple.

If there's a mistake change the decision.

A mistake in the first half,definitely. Cork at least level when he scored.

Also, the goal decision system is great but why is it only used on the goal line? Why are we still guessing on throw ins and corners?

And if a manager walks out of their technical area, they could perhaps get a small electric shock.

What I don't like is the referee having the final say that is too much pressure, the VAR team should decide and tell him to change if necessary for whatever reason.

It would also save time if the referee doesn't have to look.

But until there is a clear definition of what offside is, interfering with play etc. there will still be no clear cut decisions.

Likewise handball. Some refs could have given handball against us the other night. Same with our penalty against Aberdeen.

I presume the goal line sensors are fixed to the frame of the goal. It's a lot harder to implement this technology along 100+ yards of touchline.

Or maybe not so small depending on the manager. Could be a phone in to say how much of a shock to give.
