VAR & the FA cup
3 matches on tonight.
2 will have VAR , one won't.
The cost of VAR at the 2 grounds will be ยฃ9251.00 + VAT
This is split 50 / 50 between the 2 clubs., so the away club pays a bigger percentage because they get less of the gate receipts.
Some of the smaller clubs playing away at PL grounds don't have a choice of no VAR or not.
PL clubs getting preferential treatment again ?

They've said the problems are at the Newcastle turnstiles.

I read the delay at Blackburn is due to an accident on the motorway, really hope no one is injured.

Seen about 10 tennis balls on the pitch on the BBC coverage took 30 seconds to clear them up.

Be interesting to see if Blackburn get fined for crowd disorder. Although it was pretty pathetic.

I'm no fan of VAR. And I'd scrap it tomorrow
But as the point of VAR is to reduce errors, and increase fairness, then it would seem silly to not use it if it was available (presuming of course that VAR does what it is supposed to do)
Would you make the same argument for goal line technology?

no because goal line tech is not subjective. VAR is re-refereeing the game, they are 100% different ends of the scale and to add to that VAR is not reducing errors nor increasing fairness.Roosterbooster wrote: โTue Feb 27, 2024 9:35 pmBut they all play by the same rules, VAR or not

Re: VAR & the FA cup
There was an incident in our Cup game the other year against MK Dons
Keogh got a red card that was reviewed by VAR and overturned. If we had played the game at MK Dons and the incident happened weโd have been playing against 10 men
Iโm not claiming the decision was correct or not, just that it should be the same โconditionsโ regardless of location

Re: VAR & the FA cup
no (but it doesn't make things better). It means some games have 2 refs whilst others only have one, it's just unfair full stop. Let's say it's Burnley v Exeter and Mansfield v Northampton - two identical goals are scored and one gets ruled out at Burnley because the VAR finds a minuscule tug on a player and the Mansfield goal stands because it can't be re-checked. It just doesn't sit right with me that's allRoosterbooster wrote: โTue Feb 27, 2024 10:36 pmSo is your argument against it that VAR doesn't make things better?

Re: VAR & the FA cup
But having VAR at Burnley has no bearing on the outcome of the Mansfield game whatsoever. They aren't losing out.Vegas Claret wrote: โTue Feb 27, 2024 10:45 pmno (but it doesn't make things better).

Another way of putting it is that with a different ref, there'd have had a different result. But we don't expect the same ref for every game.
They do, however, all follow the same rules. VAR included. Whether or not VAR makes things better or not is an entirely separate argument

Re: VAR & the FA cup
That's far too hypothetical. You missed out the badge checking stage. We'd not have it ruled out if we were playing exeter. Change exeter to Everton and Mansfield to man united and then the example works perfectlyVegas Claret wrote: โTue Feb 27, 2024 10:45 pmno (but it doesn't make things better).
