If the referees using it are corrupt or inept, then it’ll just lead to the same controversies, only magnified because they don’t have the excuse of getting one view in real time. Rrrrright, ok Anyway Ours is a "diet" version, eh? What does that actually mean? There's obviously no big screen, but is there a pitch side monitor? And no fancy "countless views with lines drawn", is it literally just watching a sportscene style replay? Link to comment
starryfish Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 VAR screen for referees set to be installed to the left of the away dugout, towards the tunnel, not sure of any other infrastructure improvements Link to comment
Dal Riata Don Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 The VAR video referee still has to tell the main ref that there's an issue. That's not going to happen when, the video ref is Old Firm (OF) biased, the ref themselves is OF biased and the crowd is largely OF biased. What we will get are bizarre off-side decisions between the lesser teams (including us ?) when the sun shines on the sensors, the rain blocks the view or when a striker is a baw hair aff side. VAR in short will be another reason why football is shite. Bet we have to pay the same money as the OF to use it though! 1 Link to comment

No goal-line technology for a start To my mind, getting flagged offside because an arm is in an "offside" position is just bizarre. You can't use your arms so their position should be irrelevant. Left up to me, I'd revise the rules so that there has to be a clear space between the attacker and defender so that trying to play offside becomes a very risky tactic for defending sides.

Would that have been given? To my knowledge theres been what seems like umpteen unintentional handballs (apart from THEIR one, obviously) but Im not aware of any yet for shit-housing in the box at corners, free kicks etc. Also noticed in the build up to that penalty the Livvie boy's cross is one of those one foot behind the other jobs. 20 minutes in and Livvie are playing with flair - fucking melt them!

Aye, my perception is they’re giving just about every handball (as you set, NOT against the scum). And the trick is “the rabona”. Link to comment

Yeah but pleading to the referee that the handball wasn't intentional because you had a handful of your opponents shirt in violation of the rules, is perhaps not a very solid argument.

It's Crawford Allan that's the head of referees. He's worse than a blind man picking out his favourite scudbook. The problem with VAR is that now VAR is having to re-referee games because the actual refs seem shit scared to make a decision. By my counting I make it that Nick Walsh has failed to give 5 penalties that VAR has had to step in on. 4 of them for handball. Now admittedly i think that only 2 of them should have been penalties. But when you have referees being told to go to a monitor they are looking for a reason to give it. Referees should be mic'd like they are in Rugby. They should be made to make an on field decision. So if they say their on-field decision is no penalty then they have to find clear evidence of a handball and have to re-cite the rules proving they were wrong to then give the penalty. Same if they say their on field decision is a penalty. Right now you have 2 cunts talking to each other and no cunt knows what's being said. They could be making shit up as they go. Well I think they actually are tbh. Link to comment

The VAR picture would have to show grass in between the 2 lines drawn between attacker and defender for the attacker to be offside. If the 2 lines overlap, no matter by how little, the attacker is onside They can do this in a similar fashion at Wimbledon, showing whether a ball is out by the width of a blade of grass so it must be possible in football too 2 Link to comment
Bamber Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 From the very first time this was discussed I've advocated a system similar to tennis. The captain has 2 VAR calls per half and 1 per half in extra time. VAR calls dont carry (if you havent used VAR all match you dont have 6 calls in the second half of extra time - only 1) Captain MUST make a VAR call within 10 seconds of the event UNLESS it is severe foul play against the captain when a ref makes the decision. We dont want a video review team for each side reviewing something 5 times then telling the captain to call back play from 3 mins ago Any decision can be VAR called Any player but the captain requesting a VAR call is yellow carded Any staff member making a VAR call to any official including the 4th official is red carded and banned for the next game if VAR is succesful you get it back if VAR is unsuccesful you - lose a VAR call, opposition get a free kick from anywhere in the centre circle let refs make decisions, give the captain responsibility to call out the ref if they think he is wrong -respectfully so what if the captain has no VAR calls left and then there is an obvious error? Well the captain has already had two bites of the cherry - in those two times the captain was wrong OR the ref was actually right so sorry tough the captain wasted two calls we are seeing loads of pens by VAR - often no one was claiming them - and then also often they are not clear 1 Link to comment

How does Joe Lewis (when he was on the field as captain) determine that the Duk incident against Hibs should be reviewed other than seeing the crowd behind the goal go mental, which they do all the time anything happens to try and con the ref. So our own fans could influence our captain into making a wrong call. Also, genuine incidents would still be missed. The pen we got the other night for example. It was a penalty, but nobody that I could see called for it but VAR picked it up. You're at risk of blatant decisions going against us because we've run out of calls based on fan emotions in a game.
