The problem is that it is being selectively used and provides a bias for certain teams VAR is just a tool and it should add to the game The problem is the tools that operate it.

Crawford Allan who doesn’t pay a penny to go to the football lecturing fans how it has improved the game. It hasn’t. It has ruined the fan experience and led to just as many wrong decisions. It’s awful.

Does it factually improve the enjoyment of football? Is football not for the punter.

Never paid into a game in his puff

Because it comes with major costs in terms of the flow of the game and the fact every goal scored is now essentially provisional, until a guy sat at a screen in some other location has finished nitpicking for reasons to disallow it All for 8% improvement? Not worth it.

Is this a parody interview? Must be

Why would we get rid of something that the fans in the stadium hate and it ruins the enjoyment of the match day experience? Something that's causing fans to leave the sport in droves? Top flight football is dying a slow and painful death.

He mentions money. How about asking fans who pay their money every week what they think of var and the impact it has had on the match day experience? Main reason seems to be so our refs have chance of European games. What if clubs stopped paying for it?

I'm glad VAR isn't in the championship. Whenever i watch a top flight match, who want's to wait 5 mins to check a goal's offside then celebrate? It's sucking the passion and fun out of football.
