I'm not 'trying to conflate' anything. I'm giving an opinion on how I'd do it cos it's ** shite now. I never said players are referring anything did I?have to disagree with a lot of that. You're trying to conflate two points.. It's not the players that are referring decisions to VAR it's the match referee himself. If it's not the match referee, it's the VAR ref himself bringing an incident to the referees attention. I really don't see why the onus should be passed from a referee to a player regarding a mistake being made.by an official. It isn't tennis or cricket where there is a natural break between points/ball. It has to be for the two refs to sort out. And why put pressure on a ref to get a decision right within sixty seconds? The important thing is they get it right. Sure, i agree some decisions are taking too long but i put that down to the over use of slomo.
I said it would be more of spectacle if they did.
My point isn't that I want 'perfect' decisions. That's never happening. It's that such a system would drastically reduce the use of VAR and still allow 'howlers' to be challenged.
