Bollocks, gutted for Coventry.

First time in 139 years that the FA Cup final has been a rematch of the previous seasons final, and only the second time it has ever happened.

VAR ruins one of the greatest ever FA Cup moments.

Wanted to the fairytale for Cov, but maybe it’s good that United have a cup final to think about the week after playing us.

And just that one incident should tell everyone that VAR needs to be binned off! A forensic assessment says he's off by half a boot lace! The romance of the Cup has arguably been dead for many years and there was a moment to just recapture it for just a minute
I’m absolutely fuming. If there was any justice in the world Coventry would’ve won. How on earth is that in the spirit of the game to disallow a goal because the attack is a finger in front of the last defender, what advantage has he gained at all? VAR is the worst thing to happen to football, worse than the Premier League, worse than Sky Sports, worse than anything in the game you can think of. FCK OFF VAR!!!!!

Well, I don't normally like sweeping generalisations and coarse, unreasonable statements on here.

But can I just say that Manchester United are a bunch of lucky wankers and their supporters can f*** off back to Guildford.

I thought it was offside before VAR. Everyone would be praising it if it was United who had scored.
The linesman didn't - but assume you knew better sitting on your sofa? The players were dead level - so of course they gave it as offside rather than going with the on-field decision. The technology simply isn't there to tell them the precise micro-second the ball was played or the precise location of each player's anatomy. It's utter horsesh*t.
