@JacquiOatley If 96% is the PGMOL’s assessment, that means they are *only prepared to admit* that 4% of decisions were incorrect.
It’s wider than that though. It’s slow, intrusive, and open to more thoughtful and deliberate manipulation and misuse.
The tipping point has been reached for many.
Well, at least I haven’t driven for 8 hours and spent £150 to see VAR disallow a last-minute equaliser for @Wolves this time…
How long before an all-club Fans Against VAR’ march goes to Wembley…?

I think the simplest way to describe my feelings about top-level football over the past few years, exacerbated by events of the past week, is that it has lost its charm. Go watch Fever Pitch for a precis of paradise lost.
