Re: Plans to change the Play-offs

Under this system Millwall (8th) would have made the play-offs 34 points off automatic promotion 17 points off a relegation spot. Bonkers isn't it?

This all assumes that the frames being shown are at the exact time of the pass, which based on everything I've seen to date I have little to no faith in.

I totally agree, there could easily be a time lapse between the player's contact with the ball and the position of the line.

The VAR offside should be time limited, if you can't show that it's offside within 30 seconds, then the goal should be given.
Tricky, isn't it. Because supporters of VAR might say if you can't prove it's onside in 30 seconds it's offside.
