  1. It's out of their hands now, but it is well documented it was the larger clubs pushing for VAR. It's not that they thought VAR would fix results for them, its just that they felt errors "randomness" benefitted smaller teams.
  2. Absolutely. VAR was brought in largely as a risk analysis by the big teams. They do not want to risk their revenue (making Europe) being affected by a bad refereeing decision. Obviously, we have still seen VAR get plenty of decisions wrong, but that was the rationale for it. The breaks provide commercial opportunities and it was brought in as a measure to try and protect revenue for the big teams. Obviously, they then went further to try and protect revenues with the ESL.
  3. We can not be sure that goal was "rightfully" ruled offside. There is a margin of error. Please refer to the image explaining this I attached in my opening post. The implementation has not improved at all, in my opinion. Also, the game didn't need it for 150 years and was the most popular sport on earth before VAR, and VAR only exists in a tiny number of leagues, so I'm not convinced the game does need it.
  4. A lot of Canaries do! The fanbase has always been great with its anti-var support. Think a few horrors went against you when you were last in the PL. Due to the financial doping in the Premier League it will be hard for you guys to stay up - but I'll be hoping you do. Also - credit to your fan group (along come nodge?) for the anti-VAR banners last time you were in the PL. Great stuff.
  5. Hello good people of Norfolk,On May 22, outside PL HQ in Paddington, London, a peaceful protest will be held against the use of VAR in Premier League football. This protest is for all football fans.VAR has ripped the heart and soul out of the game. It has sacrificed the soul and does not even get decisions correct, there are too many examples of VAR mistakes for me to list on here.VAR is also currently calling offside decisions which it cannot definitively call due to frame rates and margin of error. We can not know the goal that was disallowed for Chelsea in the FA cup final was definitively offside for example. Norwich City were one of the worst (the worst?) team affected by ludicrous decisions when you were last in the Premier League, and it was good to see your fan group show their displeasure at VAR inside the stadium. As I'm sure you are aware VAR has not improved since the Canaries were last in the Premier League, and currently you will no longer be able to celebrate goals and your players may get sent off in a match by VAR, only to be rescinded later, or a penalty may get given against norwich because VAR has zoomed in on the tiniest "contact" to justify the dive. It is clearly and obviously not working. Feel free to follow on twitter (@fansagainstvar_) or sign the petition to scrap VAR: https://www.change.org/p/the-premier-league-remove-the-use-of-the-video-assistant-referee-var-from-premier-league-football?recruiter=908392471&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=share_petition&recruited_by_id=dd1eb300-da22-11e8-9f02-2b214d86d7dcHappy to discuss VAR more or answer questions etc,Nice one - Fans Against VAR
