Why can’t we have VAR replays in the stadium? We have all paid to be there so why are the replays only available to those watching on TV? The replays would not have caused anymore crowd trouble than without yesterday and everyone was incensed anyway. It just baffles me that most of the time we have no idea what’s going on.

Yep, it also drives me mad(der) that the only people who can hear the conversation between the officials are the sodding commentators. Imagine us plebs who actually pay to go being allowed to listen in. Scandalous.

I think that really wouldn't work and could cause more problems at the ground. I also wouldn't want to pay to see VAR!

Apart from the two ‘handballs’ there weren’t any.

There was talk of VAR replays being shown but because not all clubs have screens in the stadium (Man Utd for one) it was not going to happen. I think there was also the suggestion fans could kick off if VAR cocks up, which lets face it, it does far too often.

They took away the replays so the crowds could no longer see the mistakes or contentious decisions being made. Cant get mad about something if you cant see it seems the logic.
