[Football] FA Cup 3rd Round Ties

[PeterT]

I was hearing that from tonight they have an additional VAR official, VAR support, to handle communication from all the other VAR officials and assistants back down to the referee.

It’s getting ridiculous, let’s just keep getting more and more cooks into the mix, that’s bound to help!

Had three VAR checks for nothing tackles in this spurs game, why are they refereeing the game so much all of a sudden? Any tackle if freeze framed can look ugly, I hate what football is becoming.

They VAR checked for over a minute for a clear accident when the Burnley player stood on Lo Celso

10 seconds is all it should have taken.

That's always been the way. You can hear the VAR support in the Liverpool offside debacle, he just wasn't listened to

Thing is, all of these VAR bods have to justify their wages

It shouldn’t have taken anything really tho, VAR wasn’t brought in to slow down every second of footage and comb through to find mildly/arguably incorrect refereeing decisions.

I always thought VAR would get rid of refereeing howlers but all it appears to have done is make the VAR officials into scientific geeks who want to get involved in every aspect of the match, I sctuslly feel for the referees at times because it’s making them look stupid.

Gomes suspended against us. He’s their star man. Caicedo like.

This coverage at half-time is almost as cringeworthy as the football.
Tyldesley included.

Like any auditor.
Find stuff that's wrong or those paying your salary will realise they don't need you.

 

[Sheebo]

Wolves will have a replay then before we play them… good news potentially…? As well as the suspension to their midfielder…

Even if it’s a draw? Replay?

Replay is 5-6 days before our game.

Replay is 5-6 days before our game.

So won’t he just be suspended for the replay?

 

[Washie]

Even if it’s a draw? Replay?

3 game ban

Hell yes. Worked for me for 10 years

3 game ban

Brilliant! Thanks

I'm liking these all Premier League ties that are ending in draws and requiring replays.

If we ever were interested in Udogie, I really wish we’d got him, he’s some player.

Ridiculous pace. He absolutely destroyed Baleba for pace and strength with one run last week.
