Where does it end with VAR, high time our club grew a pair and kcked up a fuss about it enough is enough.

Regarding Semedo at CB that was due to Bueno getting a hamstring injury that's why he had to come off.

My love for the game has gone with VAR I walked out of the match early for the first time tonight.

Life can be hard and injustice at times. But there are also some good moments. Going fishing ride my old Norton or watch a good game of football. Well football is no longer on that list. Thank you VAR.

t is not just the incompetents managing the technology Rated, but also the diluting of the world rated "pyramid system" we have in British football, dodgy Ownerships and confusing Financial Rules.
The beautiful game as we have known it is fast disappearing.

I can live with human errors by the referee. It's part of the game and life. Nobody is perfect. What I have learnt to hate is faceless people behind closed doors making bad decisions "to your own good". And for me VAR has become a symbol of such injustice. I have had more than enough of that in real life. Why pay money to get even more.

I don't think you're on your own with that thought Rated, personally I can't wait for this season to end.

It would be the old Norton ride for me Shrekken, what model/year is it? My ride out this Sunday (ride for life) has been postponed due to weather concerns so the frustration grows.

Many predicted that the influx of massive sums of money into the game would be the death of it, were they right, probably.

I think the fans from every team
Should do something.
Because the fa will not.
It's rife in football now. It's embarrassing surely to the fa
Week in week out
What if for one batch of games
No one attended a match. In protest
Surely it will prompt a refurb of var
Goal line technology is fine
What doesn't help is bloody TV
Zooming in on tight decisions either being given wrongly or correctly
Thus causing mass hysteria among supporters
If we went back to refs on field
decision, then carry on at once, as it was originally, we would get the
Banter amongst ourselves if he was right or wrong

It's a Norton commando 850 1975. Starting rebuilding a t160 now. Hope to get it on the road next summer. It's a terrible disease called anglofil. Can't be cured. But lots of fun.

Love it Shrekken, great bike and great that Norton seem to be in safe hands now after the previous shenanigans.

Longmynd, money money money, who cares about football and the fans? The FA cup final will be played in Dubai after replays are stopped, top prem teams seeded at quarter final stage with computer assisted refereeing, virtual penalty shoot outs next, I wouldn't be surprised.

I think the Spanish super cup is/was to be moved out there already.

Last night's VAR involvement showed with hwangs goal that the games being taken away. Yes cunha raised his arm and it was a yellow, possibly even a red card but it didn't have any effect on the goal. You could argue that a foul should have been awarded but it didn't influence play contributing to the goal, and it didn't obstruct kleivert so it was off the ball contact, surely the goal awarded and cunha punished after? But no, the equaliser is cancelled by the 'computer says no' attitude of some detached manipulators, who's decisions flummox.
Kilmans effort, whilst his heel being on the line drawn out for offside, could never of benefitted from that marginal amount in finishing so it made no difference. Except for the zealots on VAR and the rules they apply in disallowing a goal. How can anyone play to those dictats? It surely changes the game of football as we knew it and why don't they listen to the chants of the PAYING fan who they see as their cash cows.

You're not wrong Abbey and Greyleg makes good points. Fan power needs to step in and take the game back because every season it keeps getting worse.

It's like nothing is thought through which is of course typical of modern thinking but someone needs to put a stop to it.

Sadly Longmynd, it is a money juggernaut driven by the Americans, determined to bring the Franchise Model to European Football.
.and it ain't stopping!

I said this some many posts ago.'we all live in America' and changes will be imposed on us regardless of how we protest. Someone said on an earlier post that the vast sums of money have now started to ruin the game and they're correct. Corruption, is/will become part and parcel. I had a season ticket for over 30 years and took both my lads, and maybe not surprisingly neither has any interest in football now. I still watch pretty much most Wolves games on TV by whatever means possible but glad now I don't part with hard earned cash. Ridiculous decisions, can't celebrate goals in case VAR intervenes, constant lengthy interruptions in play due to VAR. Some ill qualified guy remote from the game making stupid decisions. 100+ minute games, no consistency re FFP. In short a total mess. PL the best in the world. Really. The other leagues must be dreadful, because we're going backwards year on year. I'll still support/follow Wolves but won't put my money into something now that's simply so bad.

And, news from Sweden this morning that their FA are not going to use VAR. I wonder why? I would imagine they watch a lot of English prem on TV there, but how long until they'll be banned from EUFA if they don't comply?

I never wanted VAR so I'm biased anyway but it's sucking the life and enjoyment out of the game in my opinion.
It was supposed to be about clear and obvious! It isn't!
They are re-refereeing the game. Stop it.
It's like life in general if you give power to people they will use it. That doesn't explain it very well but that's what's happening.
