Linekers road to Damascus mind change on VAR really annoys me. From must come in to must go. Only over 40s who loved game for what it is who wanted VAR were pundits. What the hell did they expect? No slide rules? Somehow decisions of opinion would all of a sudden be all correct?
It’s a great thing fans aren’t in stadiums but only because they are not suffering loss of moment of immediacy, heart beat explosion your team scoring gives, or heart beat lost when you concede. Sadly PL fans will still have to suffer it post CoVid. Thanks to in main ‘experts’
Plus managers like Klopp and Guardiola who bemoaned occasional goal they lost incorrectly forgetting the hundreds they were awarded incorrectly. See also penalties. It should be compulsory for pro VAR experts, managers, even fans to have on their gravestone ‘They killed the game’
For every VAR sinner now repenting there’ll be a fucking huge army at the gates of heaven stopping them and chanting ‘who the fucking hell are you’ and ‘we can see you looking in’
