Very enjoyable game between Notts County and 'Alti' (Altrincham). 2-0 to the home side

First goal, clearly offside. No VAR, goal allowed. No complaints from Alti.
Second goal, iffy challenge, would probably have stood with VAR.
Third goal....penalty saved, but VAR would have triggered a retake as goalie was off his line and half way up the M1 when the ball was kicked.
But VAR may well have overruled the pen decision.

Half time with VAR would have been 1-0 (or 2-0 with successful retake of a pen that probably shouldn't have been given).

Let's see how the second half pans out. You could say that it all evens itself out without VAR. But that's Notts County vs Alti, not BHA vs Man*******united.

Not very interesting, but as a sample of nonVAR to dissect . . . slightly more interesting than 'best away games that finished 1-1' ??? :rolleyes:

Different rules for different levels, which manifestly alters results. This was always one of the prices to pay for having VAR introduced. Just another little piece of our footballing culture thats been kicked into the long grass in favour of technology. Which (as predicted) has f*cked up 10x more than it resolves.

Brighton. NOT KEMPTOWN!
When I watched the Carabao Cup highlights last week, it was refreshing to have no VAR. Players just got on with it, games flowed, few interruptions. Ah, the good old days!
