[QUOTE="Lamont D, post: 2200306, member: 85785"] The new technology in the premiership is in my humble opinion not being used correctly. This is because, the system the league uses, takes control of decisions away from the match referees, if the interpretation of the law is often discussed and open to abuse from another referees opinion. Obviously the system is there (allegedly) to prevent clear refereeing mistakes, then another referees opinion is often used to change the original decision, this has been shown to sometimes been controversial and at times (too often) wrong! The use of the television monitor is there for the match referee to use but has only been used twice and both for sending offs., both correct decisions I may add! The VAR referee should be there to advise and check to see if the match referee has missed a clear and decisive mistake. That is it! The offside law has been changed by VAR, not by the law makers, if the offensive player is in line, then he is not in an offside position. It is supposed to be an advantage to the attacking player, not be offside by millimetres! The attacking player may have smaller feet than the defender, how can that be offside? We recently got a draw and a replay in the cup, which we got through two VAR reviews, when the referee and linesman got both decisions wrong, this is why we need it, but it has to used for the benefit of the game, not as it is being used in some cases. VAR is here to stay, if only we could have it in league one with some of the bad officials we seem to keep getting! [/QUOTE]
