Re: Premier League confirms wrong penalty decisions in all Thursday games

VAR should be run like Rugby Union. The VAR ref highlights a possible error, the Ref on the pitch is overall in charge and he takes a look at the replay via big screen or pitch side monitor in conversation with VAR Ref but the final decision is for the Ref on the pitch to make. At the moment there ...

The opposition won the toss and put them into bat, giving them the op to do this, certainly not cricket but could have easily been avoided.
Nail on the head. If they’d lost the toss, then thems the rules. But they gave them the opportunity.

Yes, I’ll pop down to my local. Not being in the ‘dangerous category’ in any way, I fail to see why it shouldn’t be life as normal. If I was at risk then I’d have a different view, but I’m not.

Some might see that harsh or callous. I just see it as managing risk - something I do daily.
