Human error is just that, human. Now we have human error amplified by technology. As I responded to someone else, I much prefer the brilliant game I grew up with to this Frankenstein monster.

Over time, bad calls even out. That’s just the laws of probability. I’m sure there are legions of other Bundesliga fans who feel hard done by calls that went in Bayern’s favor, right?

This mess hasn’t really improved anything but has cost us so much.

I can’t imagine anyone prefers this mess to the one we had before VAR.

We can’t celebrate goals properly. The flow of the game is constantly interrupted. The determination of calls based on millimeters and body parts is endless.

What did we get in return?

The arguments about bad calls by humans is now replaced by arguments about bad calls by humans and technology.

I’ll take the game I grew up on rather than this shambles.

I’ve been saying before it was even implemented that VAR is a classic “solution in search of a problem”.

OK, refs occasionally got things wrong. We lived with it. It gave us something to discuss and argue with one another.

Football has always been a wonderful human endeavor and humans are fallible.

Who in their right mind would trade the flow of the game, the celebration of a goal, for perfection in offsides or foul calls?

And of course we haven’t got perfection. There’s never perfection. Perfection is unattainable.

VAR must go.

But Lord and useless go so well together

let’s get rid of VAR, then we can try some other terrible ideas to ruin a sport that didn’t need fixed.
