Actually, maybe teams should just play the 90 minutes without announcing any goals. An FA panel can then meet on the following Tuesday review all the VAR footage and decide the score.

Personally, my beef isn't with the microscopic accuracy. I'd say if we have to have it, lets have it precise. My beef is with the whole idea of VAR and that it just saps the life out of the game. Not knowing whether a goal is a goal until several minutes later just destroys it.

Brilliant ideas. I want this adopted immediately.

Whatever offside rule you make there will be a point where it switches from being onside to offside. Around this point there will always be arguments.

Yes, obviously I know it wasn't everyone who wanted it, but there was a sizeable majority in favour on here. And those that have been whining and wingeing about it for the last five years now have it, and I hope they choke on it.

Forgive the ignorance but why are they treated differently to electric bikes (or non-electric for that matter)? I dont understand - I dont need insurance to ride my bike, why do I need it to ride a scooter?

Presumably, its based on a fixed camera somewhere near the goal line. The grid they impose on it is adjusted for the angle/parallax. There's no reason for that not being acurate.

Agree mostly, but doubt in who's mind? Yesterday Burn was clearly offside. Plenty of reason for doubt there. Just because the lino (and every one else) missed it - surely this is absolutely makes the case for VAR for those that wanted it. The fact that it kills the game completely and...

But teams wouldn't 'waste' their referral on anything other than a goal. You'd hope the stone-wall penalties would be seen by the ref anyway. The best chance of gaining advantage for your team is to refer the goal scored against you in the hope that there is something wrong with it...

As I said on the other thread - You lot who wanted VAR (which was the vast majority) made your bed, now you can flamin well lie in it. I shall say the same to the Welsh farmers who voted for Brexit. ... and any other turkeys who voted for Christmas.

It doesn't deal with it at all. In fact it would make it even worse. Teams would save their one or two referalls for goals against them. The majority of games feature one or two goals per team. This would result in more or less every goal being refered to VAR, just as now. Pointless.

This is what you all wanted. You made your bed now you can flamin well lie in it.

Hybrids are the short term future. All electric will be the norm once the infrastructure is in place.

Pessimist! I think Champions League is a real possibility.

Waitrose wins the award hands down for the most badly designed auto-checkout. The 'bagging area' is to the left of the scanner on the same size you put your basket and is about 6 inches square. Your only choice is to pile your purchases up vertically.

TV and radio both have sufficient delay - and the in-play bet cut-offs are geared to those outlets. And yes, it IS their problem which is their motivation for trying to fix it. There is nothing remotely fair about it. They will also ban people who consistently win through their own skill and...

Interesting and a bit sinister. They are looking for 'court-siding'. I'd not heard of this until last week's Panorama. The name comes (obviously) from tennis, where you can basically bet online on every point scored. If you have a mate on the phone at the match, they can relay the outcome of...

Yep - Calleri had us caught in a trap.

The local authority 'next door' to mine now charges for 'diy' building waste. To avoid this charge, people were just driving the few extra miles to my local tip. Now my local authority employs someone full time to check people's address on entry to the tip, to turn them away if they don't live...

I got my all time record speed on my moped (Honda SS50) down there - 45 mph. But it was steeper in those days.
