And we need to get three points more than Luton to have it in our own hands in the last day. Unfortunately they have four winnable games left.

Re: Nottingham Forest tweet
It's been done a couple of times by video / science nerds at university. Mostly went over my head but they explained in some detail why the offside system used by the VAR isn't accurate enough to rely on with tight calls.

Re: Today's Games
But that’s sort of the point, for calls so close VAR can’t prove it because the technology isn’t up to it. It’s essentially guessing when it’s inches.criminalclaret wrote: ↑Sun Apr 21, 2024 7:26 pmI have no issue with VAR when it gets stuff right.
