How will VAR shaft us today?

[Wolflaw]

As per the thread title.

I'm going for a handball by Son straight into the goal where VAR claims not to have a good enough angle to disallow it.

 

[Madmalc]

I'm expecting a far more formidable opponent in PGMOL than just one dodgy penalty area call.

**** var **** var **** var and repeat

Red card and penalty for falling over own feet

 

[JadeWolf]

Jose Sa sent off for handball. Sa to explain to the referee that he’s the goalkeeper and is allowed to, but the referee to insist he is right. VAR stick with the infield decision,

 

[Netherton Wolf]

I'm actually a little more hopeful today as Tierney is on VAR --- Am I deluded

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Hwang Scores after a brilliant move after a throw in, but the goal is disallowed because of handball when Semedo took the throw in.

Yeah........no "clear and obvious errors" LMFAO!

 

[Mardenboroughs Shoulder]

A lot?

 

[Lawndog]

It certainly comes to something when, after half a century of watching football, I'm more worried about the match officials than the opposition!

 

[wolfslair]

Eric dier to get a volleyball spike finished allowed in a 119th minute equaliser when only 5 mins was meant to be played……

 

[glorybox]

I fully expect the referee and VAR to take it up a notch today. “How dare little old Wolves question our ability, professionalism, decision making and integrity. Know your place Wolves, have a load of this!!”.

 

[Darvo]

VAR is spoiling the game. It’s such a force for bad and kills entertainment stone dead. I think it was Southgate who said ‘it sucks the joy out of a goal’. He’s bang on.

Johnson dive

 

[jrpb-3]

Cunha clear through on goal, bought down by last man but no red card, for spurs player, player later goes on to score

 

[jrpb-3]

Or it will shaft us by getting things right

Hwang bought down by Son minimal contact, ref points to the spot. VAR overrules, no pen

VAR owe us time we started diving ourselves

Goal disallowed because of handball in the build up (last season)

Tempting fate but I think we'll have a quiet one today, no major decisions

 

[Contrarian]

Because we keep complaining about VAR not overturning incorrect decisions, it will finally overturn a penalty. But it will be one of ours after Hwang was clearly scythed down when about to tap in to score.

"Well, there's not enough contact and he's gone down far too easily, Jimmy". "But Don, he was stretchered off, which would suggest the contact was...significant?". "It's a contact sport, Jimmy".

Meanwhile, down the other end: "Son has felt the light brushing on his leg and had every right to go down and win the penalty. It's clever forward play, Jimmy. What was the defender thinking of, Jimmy? Daring to breath within a yard of an opponent. VAR won't be looking at it.".

 

[Sussex Wolf]

Spurs defender will handle the ball, but after it deflects off his foot. VAR rules he played the ball, so no handball…

Any comparison with another incident at the other end a few weeks ago will be dismissed by PGMOL with “we’ve learnt from our mistakes”…

Var deem it not a clear and obvious error?

Prophetic .

 

[theweave]

Good performance from the ref today

 

[Frank Lincoln]

Doesn’t it make a pleasant change to not spend Saturday evening discussing VAR?

Doesn’t it make a pleasant change to not spend Saturday evening discussing VAR?

Except knowing that if VAR worked, we would now be 6th - ignoring the changes that would have benefited other teams.

 

[Me Babbies]

I'm still waiting for them to find some reason to penalise us at 9pm hours after the game

He says, talking about VAR.

 

[Frank Lincoln]

He says, talking about VAR.

Guilty as charged..

 

[JadeWolf]

Did anyone else have a horrible feeling during the celebration of Lemina’s goal that VAR was gonna get involved?

Everyone of us!

 

[arctic rime]

Bump !

 

[Boss Hogg]

No one would have guessed “soft’ headbutt , but that wasn’t even the worst decision of the game!
