LiVARpool get the VAR footage
Can I ask why their VAR disallowed goal makes them so special?
They’ve been given the footage first from their game against Spurs

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
I'm not sure it's a favour to Liverpool, it's just that they're pursuing it further. Good luck to them, it won't change anything about the result but if it further damages the reputation of VAR then i'm all for it.

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
They've, quite rightly, requested the audio transcript. Did I hear correctly from Gary Neville that the commentators hear what's being said between the referee and VAR room during the game?
Not really sure why LFC are getting grief for this - the counter argument appears to be, well we had an awful VAR decision go against us, but we didn't say anything. Perhaps you should have? Can't just keep accepting this nonsense, and I'm glad a big club has decided to take a stance.

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
It was the big clubs who demanded VAR be implemented in the first place as they weren‘t getting all the decisions. They will complain no matter what. Basically the big clubs won‘t shut up until everything is done to ensure every decision goes their way rightly or wrongly.
VAR is a mess, the premier league is a mess, but as long as pockets still get lined who cares?

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
I’m giving LFC grief because of the big club bias that they and others in the league appear to get from the authorities and officials. I actually hope they get something done though, as they were “wronged” by VAR, but I can bet statistically they have over time been massive beneficiaries of VAR as all the big clubs are.

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
Reported the VAR official, Darren England, believed the goal had been awarded by the on-field officials and not ruled out for offside, so when he confirmed "check complete" he thought he was confirming the goal should stand, unbelievably poor excuse.

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
Hang on. If that’s the case then surely when the ref does his usual arm waving and points for a free kick after receiving instructions he believes is not a goal due to being offside, at that point Darren England says to the ref, no, ref that’s not correct, the goal stands he was onside.claretburns wrote: ↑Tue Oct 03, 2023 1:39 pmReported the VAR official, Darren England, believed the goal had been awarded by the on-field officials and not ruled out for offside, so when he confirmed "check complete" he thought he was confirming the goal should stand, unbelievably poor excuse.
Just to add. How long are they going to allow Howard Webb to continue having to apologise for these errors. If it’s five of them involved in var including the ref and they can’t get it right it’s a poor situation we’re in.

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
I was saying to my old man nary a week ago that it’s only a matter of time before someone ends up getting litigious and then this crops up.
Does anyone know if Liverpool actually could do that and involve CAS for example, or perhaps it’s a covenant as part of your acceptance of the ‘golden share’ that all decisions are final or something?

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
I don't care if there is a "big club bias" in the decision to challenge the way VAR is invoked and determined in the Premier League. Teams small and small have been the victims of too many incorrect decisions and, if it affecting Liverpool is what it takes to move VAR towards a more European 'lighter touch' model then I'm all for it!

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
Big club bias is a problem with our refereeing but if it's what you're moaning about when referees (and in this case one referee consistently) are using video replay to make our league worse then I don't know what to tell you. As others have said glad Liverpool are standing up to it properly and hope we will follow suit next time we're on the end of it.
Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
I mentioned this on another thread. Because it is Liverpool I belive heads will roll at Stockley Park. But more imprtant is what ex referees like Kieth Hackett are saying - about VAR - is that that it really needs put right (hmmm) or scrapped. I'm in favour of the latter as things satnd.

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
I watched the game in silence but when I saw the image of the offside, no VAR lines but clear grass cut lines, I couldn't believe the goal was called offside. I rerun the TV footage with the commentators talking and they said practically nothing about it. For once I thought I'd also listen to the half time punditry and they said nothing of it until the last lot of adverts when they showed the image again but didn't say a great deal.Swizzlestick wrote: ↑Tue Oct 03, 2023 1:22 pmThey've, quite rightly, requested the audio transcript.

Generally their discussion at half time was 'on the fence' rather then any clear opinions. In other words, banal! That's why I don't normally listen to it and try to make my own mind up.

The difference with Rugby though is that the on field Referee initiates the Video check whereas in football the incompetents in the bunker at Stockley Park have that control. Surely it's a simple change to effect that in this case Hooper should have asked VAR " can you just check that offside and let me know". At present the game is being "re-refereed" by VAR and that is just wrong.

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
There is nothing wrong with VAR
It is the incompetent officials who are running it who are the problem
Many people, myself included, have always thought it would gain more credence if a former player sat with the numpties in Stockley Park
However, the counter argument to that is whether former players could be seen as having a bias towards certain clubs
Imagine Carra and Neville being on VAR duty together when that goal was disallowed or allowed (who knows which)
Apparently VAR can then only stop a game for wrong initial decisions if it involves thing's like mistaken identity in a red card
Another load of crap - the game should be stopped in all instances of a wrong decision being made

There are way too many stoppages after goals they are killing the Vibe at present, they also take eons to come to a decision.
They need the auto offside machine working as they have shown they can’t draw the lines in the right place.
A simple conversation would have sorted out that offside with the var or the ref. Rabbit in the headlights springs to mind.

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
Seems to me that this particular issue is easily remedied with better communication between Stockley Park and the on field official. Barking ‘check complete’ without making it clear what the check was for and whether or not to award a goal seems nonsensical and symptomatic of the abysmal way VAR is run in the Premier League. It would literally take an extra second to say, ‘check complete, onside, award the goal’.

The reason big clubs appear to you to be the beneficiaries of VAR is just that the big clubs are generally in the top 6, and the more successful. They “appear” to get the decisions because they’ve got the best players who create more chances, have more attacking play and score more goals.
I really hate this small club victim mentality a lot of our supporters seem to have.

Audio shows that as soon as the game restarts they realise the error and know a goal should have been awarded but England keeps repeating "I can't do anything" despite the 4th official saying to delay the game.
I know the game has officially been restarted but why then can't they stop and say got it wrong, goal for Liverpool, would have had the right outcome in the end and they wouldn't have half the criticism being thrown at them now.

Pretty much the tale that came out on Saturday night. England thought the goal has been given. By the time his error was pointed out to him, play had restarted and he couldn’t intervene under the current rules.
Major balls up, but if they stopped talking to each other like robots, someone would have realised before it was too late. Instead of “check complete”, could England not just have said “Diaz is onside, the goal should stand”?

If the ref had clearly stated "the on-field decision (by the lino) is offside, do you have any evidence to overrule that?" Surely the Stockley Park contact would have come back with an over-rule as it was clearly onside (without even having to draw the cursed lines).

Re: LiVARpool get the VAR footage
If you actually listen in the background when the error is first discovered you can hear England say somthing muffled and then "left back". It's not in the transcript either but seems like England had already made his mind up that he was offside.
Similar thing in our game.
They've published this to hang him out to dry though in my opinion, I suspect to deflect the attention away from VAR itself.

They should also follow the ilk of cricket video. If too difficult to confirm either way (such as Berge incident) stick with the on field decision. No more pitch side screens either.
