With or without VAR refs still need to held to account though and the only way that will happen is through TV replays and pundits discussing etc otherwise things will just be brushed under the carpet. VAR was meant to reduce errors, and overall it has done, the problem is that the errors it...

Offsides are not subject to the clear and obvious test. They are always checked when a goal is scored. From the PL website. “Factual decisions, such as offside or if a foul was committed inside or outside the penalty area, will not be subject to the "clear and obvious error" test.”...

It will always make me laugh even if some don't get it. At one point in the 70s it was my Uncle who carried the board with the half time scores on it around the edge of the Goldstone pitch (before my time though). So there is some factor of it being an in joke within our family.

Get that bloody board out of the way!

From that we must conclude all refs are secretly Palace fans. ****s

Weekend selections are due to be announced midday tomorrow. But Webb has called a meeting tomorrow as well so the announcement weekends officials might be delayed until after that meeting has taken place.

Brooks has been stood down from VAR duty this week after his mistake in disallowing our goal. https://www.skysports.com/share/12810079

Hes an ambassador for a charity that look to support and represent the interests of referees at all levels of the game, especially at grassroots. https://refsupport.co.uk/who-we-are/ It may have been the first some people had heard of it because it is a incredibly rare occurrence, but its...

Dunks goal where the keeper wasn't ready was at West Brom wasn't it? There is nothing wrong with allowing a penalty after the final whistle. It is allowed under the laws of the game.

He could but he won’t because he realises mistakes happen and that it won’t be one single incident that causes us to miss out on Europe if that what happens. Should Arsenal sue because of the incorrect offside, should Chelsea for the clear handball not given, if either of them miss out on...

Probably as disappointed at the Bournemouth fans after they were relegated due to the failure of goal line technology in the Aston Villa vs Sheffield United game. Only it wasn't that decision alone that relegated them, just like it won't be a VAR error alone that means we'd miss out on Europe...

Unless one of them is a robot it's still human error no matter how many Video Assistant Referees are making the decisions.

An appeal against a red card, or a retrospectively given red card doesn't change the outcome of a game though. The result still stands. You cannot go down the road of appealing results based on errors by officials. If we appealed to get the Pervis goal given, Palace could easily counter with an...

Why? It is human error. There is nothing automated about the system, it’s still a human making decisions based on video replays.

Totally agree. We don’t need any more layers of complexity or delays. We need rid of VAR as it’s not fit for purpose, or it needs making fit. I’m not a fan of appeals etc (real time challenges work in certain sports) but I’d never advocate for results to be changed retrospectively unless there...

With the amount of VAR f*** ups we’ve seen over the last few weeks it almost seems like the Refs want to get rid of it too and that explains the errors. I mean it has to be that doesn’t it, surely no one can be that incompetent week in week out 🤣🤣🤣

The red card incident was in the FA Cup.

if they can't get an angle that clearly shows all defenders (or their is doubt because a defender is obscured) then they are meant to go with on field decision. That's what happened in the Liverpool vs Wolves FA Cup game when a goal was disallowed and VAR couldn't get a definitive angle so had...
