I think a large proportion of us would feel the same. The PL were always going to be the ones to make w complete fizz up of the technology, just hope it doesn’t filter down to the EFL anytime soon.

Just one big f.uck up after another, 3 months off or not Indeed. They are making it look totally amateurish with the amount of ******** ups. Feels like they've tried to keep a balance between intervening and letting the game flow but in doing so have created loads of confusion about the role of the VAR- leading to the kind of paralysis we saw last night. The lack of common sense on the part of the officials to not stop and take a look was unreal. Absolute clowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_1 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 It cost them 5th place, and even though we'll be hoping to finish 5th or higher in League 1 next season, I still think it's funny. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That can’t be right. We were told that technology would be the solution to all the game’s problems and would remove all arguments? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamsandwich Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 7 cameras and 9000 matches that couldnt determine if the ball went over the line - except the camera that everyone at home is watching. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_1 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Just watching Wilder's post match comments. He seems to be mellowing out. Or at least realising how his reactions can come acrross. Compare last nights comments with the infamous 'BIG HITTERS ON 40K A WEEK'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting pi55ed up and calling Bamford a d*ckhead (though he has a point) isn't going to really cut it when you are in the top flight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also knows he won't get picked up by any bigger clubs acting like he did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or when they lost to Villa He's like Warnock, shows his true (red and white) colours when things go against them in the Championship, but in the PL with far more attention tries to push his humble "nice guy" persona instead of looking like he just wants to fight everybody.

Is that 9,000 game figure accurate though, how do they know if it worked properly or not in every game? Of course it was immediately obvious that it'd gone wrong last night with all the Sky cameras and replays, but it's been used in the Championship as well for a couple of years now - if it failed in a random non-televised game and the ref didn't get the signal to his watch, it'd have just been forgotten about, the match would have gone on, and had no media attention. I remember in particular our game against Villa (ironically), the "Swarbrick game", there was a moment when the ball definitely looked over the line to me which would have put us 3-2 up but the ref indicated no message on his watch so we played on. So it's entirely possible that the system has failed before but nobody noticed. That said, I wouldn't have been surprised if the watch had said goal but Swarbrick ignored it, that game was perhaps the most blatant example of a ref being obviously bent that I've seen in nearly 40 years of going to games. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a goal but systems like Hawkeye have margins of error built into them so can't see a lawsuit being successful should they go down that route. Anyway, the season just gone from bad to worse Egan sent off and 1-0 down. After watching them against Villa and so far today I don't think the break has done them any favours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Another game I’ve watched where the pigs record signing Berge has had zero impact on the game. £25m down the drain. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
