Where the fcuk is Lord Denning when you need him ?

Genuine question: Where is this going with us?

What are the next steps for the club? For us as fans?

All four pundits and the woman dipper commentator on Sky were truly astounded at the Wolves goal being disallowed. They aren’t even hiding it now

What I don't understand is why are they like this?
Don't they want the league to be competitive? Winning the league with 37 wins, more than half bent, is hardly competitive.

A title race like last year is what they can use to sell the product called "The Premier League".

Scoring a goal, or seeing one scored is the single best bit of football. It is the entire point of it. Scoring. To put that moment into a flat arsed “hang on a minute” absolutely ruins everything about the game.

Disallowed goals are fine, for the obvious stuff, occasional disallowed goals, but it’s happening in every fucking game. I used to want the correct and fair result, that’s all we could ask for. But it’s taken away the in the moment, I’d rather it live on the edge and the odd injustice happens because the ref didn’t see it.

Who are these cunts in the VAR studio using Sky’s cameras?

Imagine 93:20 going to VAR? It fucking would have as well. Brought back because someone fouled SWP on the touch line. Also Tevez would have been sent off for his foul on Barton.

All these images of millimeter offsides is worthless as it doesn’t show the ball being released at that exact time .

It’s impossible to see a foto finish of ball release and players in any kind of forward position to make a decision towards them being supposedly offside .

It’s been said a billion times - the VAR people show what they want to show to all and sundry to back up their bent decisions .

It’s ruined the game .

93:20 with VAR is the stuff of nightmares.

I work on systems that perform over 170,000 two phase commited transactions a second . That's right 170,000.

Now , the cpu power is there.

But , as you say , how do you know the ball has been release by the passer ( foot , or in Llalanas case shoulder/arm) ?

We measured one of these photo tan based systems doing four million i/o's per second . So how many ios was the monitoring system doing at the same time?

The capacity is there. The operators are either knowingly blind or corrupt.

I am afraid VAR is being used incorrectly.

If you start ectasketching possible lines on a picture that isn't even inline with the offside player , you are setting yourself up for some legal case , eventually.

Van Dyke NON-handball before the Liverpool goal...

It was a handball, but more than 83 moves ago , so it doesn't count.

No doubt Balo's shoulder goal would've been disallowed as well

yes i know, i think in the game thread somebody pointed out 82 moves or something beforehand, there may have been an infringement and therefore our first goal may not stand . Even though city gained possion fairly. Hence the lighthearted jibe at scouse. I mean, even on the highlights of the game snippets dick van dykes handball was not shown.

Klopp is a hypocrite. When Firminos goal was disallowed he bitched and moaned about an armpit position in these stupid etch- a- sketch examples the VAR refs are using.

yet the position of a hand and not the torso of a player was used yesterday .

Klopp claimed last night 'If he is offside, he is offside'

Two things , one ,VAR processing by refs is totally inconsistent and two, Klopp is a hypocrite .

VAR is shite.
The wolves goal and the Sheffield utd goals both should have stood yesterday.

We cant have it both ways.

A toe nail, a hair, a cock millimetres ahead is not offside in my book.
Thought it had to be clear and obvious, which these decisions are not.
It's just a fraude.

In case of doubt, favour the attacking side. That has always been the rule to promote attacking football and to see more goals scored.

But, for some reason, this season they seem to go out of their way to disallow goals. Why? It's not made the game fairer, just boring and frustrating.

Sheffield United fans on the train were saying they have had 6 goals ruled out by VAR this season, and its only halfway through. VAR is certainly favouring defenders at the moment.

Did the Wolves manager mention it after the game?

When they were discussing it on motd they were saying that they should turn around the offside rule so that if any part of the body a player can score with is onside, the player is onside.
Sounds good to me.

And while we're on offside rules, why are players knocking in rebounds from the keeper being given offside. When was that changed?
