WTF does this mean? If Mark doesn't want to give it that's alright?? Current goalline technology judges on whether the ball is IN or OUT. It is a decision based on FACT and is not a subjective decision.There is NO dispute at all.With VAR there could still be decisions made which could be open to dispute.

Whereas without it and relying on the snap judgements of bent and incompetent referees... You don't like VAR because you know it will expose your corrupt and feckless heroes.

Where have I indicated that I am not in favour of VAR ? I am looking forward to seeing it in action and will have further thoughts based on it's operation. At the end of the day it's not a panacea - It is based on subjective decisions and the referees interpretations.

I personally think the majority of our officials are too arrogant to admit any mistakes, could learn a lot from Rugby but I am afraid they wont

You can't conduct a test in a competition where you are effectively asking just 2 teams to operate to a different set of rules to everyone else. You either have VAR in every game of that round, or none of them. And they've still chosen a high profile game, featuring two PL teams, particularly due to the piss poor way the last league tie was handled. All gamers are played under different circumstances.

Maybe they will use VAR outside the ground as well to assist Sussex Police before kick off to organise their pre-match tactics.

Its time to wheel all of the really good refs out of retirement as fourth officials. They won't need to run round a pitch any more however their experience would be invaluable in that seated role. (Note that I said really good refs like Collina, so I don't include Clattenburg in that list).

VAR was in place for the England v Germany friendly recently but wasn't used at all. People have to get away from believing that VAR is a panacea - there will still be cases where 'Fact' doesn't come into it (Like ball over/not over the line) and subjective decisions are made. Sure but it will resolve 99.9% of the decisions we see today that are incorrect. Therefore, we get a much, much fairer game. Nothing is 100% but since we've had goal line technology the fairness has improved massively. The more technology the better IMO.

The parameters for VAR have been laid down eg Whether a goal should stand,penalty decisions, red cards etc etc, so they don't cover each and every incident and scenario. At the end of the day it will be down to interpretations of referees and subjective decisions but I look forward to seeing how it works.

I'm not getting into any Clattenburg debate because as sure as night follows day it will end up in vitriol amidst yet another Willo thread.In the interests of HOL I will refrain from commenting on the barbs aimed in the direction of a certain referee much as I would like to offer a riposte.
