I agree with just about all of what you say, apart from to reiterate that things have changed, namely more correct decisions are being made.
I completely accept your hatred of VAR, you're by no means alone in that.
The point that VAR shouldn't have been introduced because it ruins the spontaneous joy of a goal being scored is utterly valid, although that happened pre-VAR when fans (because they necessarily have blinkers on) failed to spot an offside flag, or didn't look at the ref who had blown the whistle...
Also thank you for differentiating between VAR decisions and post-VAR errors.
I've been assured this week by someone who has multiple brain cells that VAR has led to more incorrect decisions than before its implementation. I fear for anyone that actually believes sh!t like that.
Thank you for posting this. It needs to be stated over and over again.
The whole idea of VAR emerged because ALL certain fans and pundits could talk about was officiating decisions. And now the most vocal critics of VAR are the exact same fans and pundits that used to bang on about officiating...
