Re: VAR in the FA Cup
We have seen VAR in action many times and without any stats on the subject, I'd say that the decisions favour the "better" teams.
The referee will give what he sees, usually favouring Man Us, Liverpools Chelseas or Citehs of this world and if it's not "clear and obvious" then the refs decision stands.
Villa's disallowed goal last night was also an example where VAR can look for any misdemeanor, obstructing or fouling an opponent, one that goes on regularly without penalty.
I doubt in the game City v Liverpool such a decision would swing the result in our favour but on the whole, and in reply to the OP, I say don't have it at all if the facility isn't available at all grounds.
