Disappointing. It must be just shit for the fans that are actually in the stadium

Nah, it’s really good. You get to sit around and wait for 5 minutes while you’re 5-1 down and see if a consolation goal has stood like we did vs Leeds in the cup replay. Genuinely it is scandalous that it is staying when 80% of match going fans think it has made the experience worse and 2/3 want it scrapped.

The fans should boycott en mass, otherwise they only have themselves to blame.

I'm surprised they haven't suggested showing adverts between goal and decision. They could fit in quite a few and further piss off fans and make more money.

How about those heartbeat sounds, they use in other sports!

Let’s see what improvements they make and go from there

Re: All systems Go -VAR

No Premier League manager, other than Wolves, has any right to now complain about any VAR decision ever again.
They've made their bed, so they can bloody well lie in it.

It's another potential income stream for the Premier league to exploit.

Today's VAR decisions are brought to you by Vision Express, for all your VARifocal needs.

Can’t believe Forest didn’t vote against it after the letter they wrote to the FA.

The changes to VAR for Euro 2024 - and how it differs from the Premier League
New technology will make handball and offside calls clearer, with fans shown decisions on big screens

Fans will be shown detailed explanations of VAR decisions on big screens at Euro 2024 in a move that it is hoped will improve communication with supporters inside grounds.
State-of-the-art motion sensors inside match balls will also assist VAR decisions for the first time at a European Championship.
The “connected ball technology” uses a chip inside the Adidas balls that tracks touches 500 times per second and will enable VARs to quickly assess contentious handball decisions.
Roberto Rosetti, in charge of the referees at the tournament, said a frame-by-frame replay of an incident will be accompanied by a visualisation showing if contact was detected.
A major complaint about VAR in the Premier League is that match-going fans are left unclear on decisions made, as TV viewers get clearer explanations.
In Germany, detailed summaries of VAR rulings will be shown in stadiums throughout the event in a change that, if successful, could be replicated in England.
A theoretical example for a penalty awarded for a handball was described as: “Germany No 9 touched the ball with left arm which was in an unnatural position, above the shoulder and making his body bigger.”
The introduction of a connected ball that links to computers inside a central hub, will also improve semi-automated offside technology. It provides a precise location of the ball on the pitch and, using artificial intelligence, combines with position data to speed up and improve the accuracy of VARs making offside calls.

Participants have been reminded of approaches that may differ from club football, including the awarding of red cards for any tackle that endangers the health of a player, so it is not excusable even if a player attempted to, or did, play the ball first.
Officials will also keep a eye on holding in the box at dead ball situations. England manager Gareth Southgate sought clarity from Fifa at the Qatar World Cup after the same directive was given in a pre-tournament briefing only for England to be denied a penalty in their opener with Iran when Harry Maguire was dragged to the floor.
