Making Plans 936 Posted December 30, 2019 VAR is ruining our game As an Ipswich fan, I have to say I was furious by what happened to Teemu Pukki on Saturday. Having watched football for 40 years, I innately know when something is offside. You just get a sixth sense, don't you? An alarm bell that goes off and stops fans celebrating until they've checked what the officials are doing. When I saw Pukki's goal, I got none of that. It was a goal. No question. It never occurred to anyone to look at the referee to check. But then VAR ruled the goal out - a goal I have now watched at least 12 times, which still looks perfectly fine to me. Stuff the blooming red line and talk of millimetres. It was a goal. But fans are going to be afraid to celebrate anything any more and the game is going to be ruined if this nonsense doesn't stop now. A goal you daren't celebrate isn't worth having. Fans live to cheer. Without that joy, our game is dead. Do you agree with Liz? Let her know at liz.nice@archant.co.uk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
