Tottenham Hotspur vs Rochdale - Match Thread

[Hazardousman]

So we have gone from shit decisions on the pitch from the officials to now having shit decisions from a room in the middle of nowhere from a blind fourth official?

I don’t think VAR should be relying on a random individual in a room, utterly ludicrous decision, the ref should be looking at the replay on the sideline, it would take just as much time and would make the ref directly responsible for the call.

Stinks of incompetence or worse, sorry but how the fuck does the ref not even review that on the sideline either?

Can we all agree in it's current format VAR is not fit for purpose

In Belgium, we’re using it since the start of this season and the first 3-4 gameweeks it was a total shambles. Has to be said its functiong has improved since...

If there was any clear case of rigged decisions, that has to be one. Utter joke.

 

[joey.leone]

Lost for words. The most bizarre decision I have ever seen. Why was VAR even consulted in the first place? Imagine if this one a semi final or cup final! WTF

This is like a deliberate attempt to torpedo VAR. just utterly ridiculous

Bingo. This has nothing to do with us. It's people behind the scenes trying to get rid of VAR.

 

[poc]

Exactly the type of decision that makes me not want VAR in football. This game doesn't lend itself well to this kind of review imo

Bingo. This has nothing to do with VAR. It's people behind the scenes trying to get rid of it.

seems like that

 

[Spursh]

Someone has looked at that and seen a “clear and obvious” infringement. VAR’s death knell

 

[SugarRay]

It’s great they say, wee need it they say....

I got a little bit of stick for saying that the game doesn’t actually need it and has been fine for, well, since it was invented, without it.

Absolutely terrible decision and it’s been made using VAR!

In this capacity, the game can completely do without it if that’s the sort of shit we can expect.

 

[IfiHadTheWings]

Piss take, in its current form its an abomination...how fuckin long for the decision and then to get it wrong.

 

[Sweetsman]

They're desperate to give Rochdale a chance.

 

[Romulus]

winks is getting beaten up out there

 

[JAYSTAR]

Really bad by Winks

 

[Phomesy]

Fucks sake Winks.

Running out of chances kiddo

 

[Streetspur77]

VAR should end now if their still going to make mistakes.

It's better to have one person making a mistake then multiple people fucking up.

 

[newbie]

Surly it should be a penalty for the shirt pull and kick on Llorente ? If it’s not a goal!

 

[dirtyh]

what a shit show. at the end of the day it's still down to some useless fucknut in a studio to deliberate it. may as well toss a fucking coin.

 

[Cornpattbuck]

Liverpool fan on VAR?

 

[tiger666]

Fucks sake Winks

 

[Shadydan]

Knew we’d be the first club to be wronged by VAR even though we done everything right. FUCKING JOKE.
