The 4-4 goal is the reason we absolutely must fight against VAR

[sturutter]

No, it is not at all that VAR may have overturned it.

 

There was no doubt at all about legitimacy of the goal. The problem is, there is no way of knowing that in the ground.

 

We have experienced one of the greatest moments we will as a football fan in the 97th minute tonight. Utter relief, joy, disbelief.

 

VAR changes that. Even when the goal is fine. Even when the goal doesn't "go to VAR." Instead of all those positive emotions, VAR brings uncertainty. Instead of a joyous pitch invasion, everyone half celebrates, and then stands there in anxious doubt. A doubt relieved only in anticlimax, when the game kicking off finally confirms the goal.

 

Fight against VAR. Once it is in, there is nothing we can do to stop it. It will take away moments like the Palmer goal. It will change the way we watch Wednesday forever, and only for the worse.

We’ll worry about VAR another night

[latemodelchild]

Var in our next game whether we like it or not. We've had no luck other than bad luck this season, hopefully var doesn't twist the knife in the end.

I agree. VAR kills goal celebrations as they are always provisional goals.

Hopefully Gregory tramples all over a defender and var gives us a penalty for it.
