Bad decisions are made in every game because VAR is run by humans and humans make errors.

This is what I loathe, the Trumpification of the debate. It can't just be a mistake, it has to be a mistake AND a conspiracy.
Every fanbase thinking there is a conspiracy against them is the best proof there isn't one.

Point is VAR is bad for all teams, we're here because of our performances not a few dropped points that every team could claim.
