    Dont get the point of these post match analysis. Might as well get these people in the VAR room to get the immediate correct decisions. Post match clarification means fuck all

    This is such an unsatisfying way to consume football, with every ruling analyzed so forensically. Used to be 1. there wasn’t tremendous camera work to be able to replay decisions and 2. a culture of “just get on with it.” I miss that.

      a culture of “just get on with it.”

      No there wasn’t. This is a complete romanticisation. The reason VAR was brought in the first place was because of complaints over refereeing decisions. People had been calling for it for years

    Maybe this means Sheffield United can take the curse of Man Utd…or does it just spread from Wolves to everyone they touch

    The main issue with this is that it’s the *exact* same mistake twice in a week. There are no learnings, no improvement, and no changes. They tie themselves in knots to support on-field decisions at the cost of making the wrong decision. All it does is take away what little trust and respect the referees had before.

    I want VAR to work because it has the potential for good in the game. As it is, the implementation has meant no one has a clue what the handball rule is, and the only consistency is that VAR gets something glaringly wrong every single week.

    Something has to change, and soon.

    The panel got one right amazing.

    Sorry to Wolves and their fans though. At the rate you are getting bad decisions I am really not sure its going to even out for you.

    Maybe this panel should be available for the match officials to call when there’s a review since they can’t get it right.

    I usually hate the conspiracy theory of referees deliberately sabotage a team. But at this error rate it truly feels like the PL referees are conspiring against Wolves

    So we have refs, VAR, and multiple panels that don’t seem to ever agree? How about we go back to just refs and make this a game again? And ffs stop arguing with and putting down refs. It’s gotten out of hand.

    Most teams in the league have been fucked by VAR…but I feel for Wolves. They have been on the end in some farcical decisions.

      That’s unbelievable. I thought Arsenal was hard done but this is next level. It’s simply unacceptable and I am surprised you guys haven’t file an official complaint against the PGMOL
