    Why not ‘Don’t interfere with the most popular sport on the planet?’.

      I'm with those who've said it needs to be quick and it should only be used to overturn obvious mistakes. Being a millimetre closer to the goal than a defender 10 metres away from you isn't an advantage, but it's enough to make you offside in VAR world.
      Might be better too, as also suggested already, to give each team 1 or 2 challenges per half instead of refs calling for it.

        Offside could be cleared up easily, full body past the line to be offside.

        Advantage should always go to the attacker

          This will trigger a vote. The vote will take place on June 6th. All 20 Premier league teams for the 2024/25 season will be confirmed by this date.
          A list was compiled as to why they want this vote
          ● Impact on goal celebrations and the spontaneous passion that makes football special.
          ● Frustration and confusion inside stadiums due to lengthy VAR checks and poor communication.
          ● A more hostile atmosphere with protests, booing of the Premier League anthem and chants against VAR.
          ● Overreach of VAR’s original purpose to correct clear and obvious mistakes, now overanalysing subjective decisions and compromising the game’s fluidity and integrity.
          ● Diminished accountability of on-field officials, due to the safety net of VAR, leading to an erosion of authority on the pitch.
          ● Continued errors despite VAR, with supporters unable to accept human error after multiple views and replays, damaging confidence in officiating standards.
          ● Disruption of the Premier League’s fast pace with lengthy VAR checks and more added time, causing matches to run excessively long.
          ● Constant discourse about VAR decisions often overshadowing the match itself, and tarnishing the reputation of the league.
          ● Erosion of trust and reputation, with VAR fuelling completely nonsensical allegations of corruption.
          This story was broken by the Athletic's David Ornstein
          But other than that it has been great :hehe::getscoat:

            It’ll take them a year to make a decision

              Might stop play acting but then would VAR get it right.

                The main function of the VAR officials seems to be to seek out a reason to disallow a goal. It’s gone way past ‘clear and obvious’ corrections.

                  The offside rule needs to be fixed. If I stand directly behind you but put my hand in front of you, I'm still behind you. The toe or shoulder or hand over the line thing is ****ing ridiculous. As is players trying to get others booked or sent off. That should be a bookable offence even if the player is proven correct.

                    Also, why can't they have goal line technology around the entire perimeter of the pitch? That would at least save some time. 100 minute football matches are ridiculous. That sort of thing would happen once a season after a serious injury, now it's the norm.

                        So the line is set by a shoulder or toe but not broken by one?
