The simple solutions are often the best.
Guns don't kill people, VAR does.
In cricket isn't it 30 secs for the captain to make a decision on whether to challenge or not? Except in football it'd be the manager.
Except we’ll never know if it would’ve overruled the ref.
Var was in place for Chelsea Fulham and missed a clear red for Gusto. It was in place for the Bournemouth game when Mac was sent off and we all know what happened after that. It was in place when it decided to get involve for DCL's non red card on Clyne and again like with Mac, we all know hat happened after that. It sticks its big nose where it's not needed, use for offside/offside offences and that's it.

True we'd never know, but at least someone would have a look at it.
Ings is very lucky that the grass was wet.
I believe the player could still come under retrospective punishment, it was an awful follow through.
He wasn't punished at all was he (yellow) in which case in the PL he could but in the FAC is the rule the same?
The player did get a yellow but not for that tackle no, wasn’t even awarded as a foul. Not actually sure how the process works because if the ref hasn’t seen it then he can’t report it in his match report so is it West Ham then who flag it up with the official? Do they go straight to the FA and lodge a complaint? Don’t think it matters on the competition but more whether a red card offence went both missed and unpunished.
Their cameras see everything

It's more like saying we reluctantly see the need for the police but don't want them to order a load of Boston dynamics robot dogs cos noone knows how to use them properly and they can really fuck things up.
Coote, who was on VAR duty when we played Arsenal at Anfield, and didnt give the penalty for the Odegaard handball. Webb even came out and said he hadnt applied the laws of the game correctly and appologised.
Well, guess who is on VAR duty when we play Arsenal at the Emirates. Coote. Again.
Fucking hell.

The only solace I have is that if his boss has had to apologise because of your stupid fuck up, you'd imagine you'd be keen not to repeat the error.
So when Mac finds himself giving away a pen for a similar instance, we know it's been a good process.
Until the PL wake up and start taking fucking action against this atrocity, there is nothing left to talk about as far as I'm concerned.
Them allowing this to continue without asking serious questions = blatant corruption.
This is not a case about this ref or that ref being in the wrong, it's the whole organisation.....at it all season fucking long, getting away with serial murders.

I don't think there's any conspiracy against us at all, if only for the reason that I don't think the league and officials are smart enough to conspire on anything.
Given I've always been dealing with American policing, I'd take the robots. The police culturally and individually are far too stupid to reprogram them, and from what I've seen if you bump into one of those robots, it just self-rights, it doesn't start suplexing you into the pavement.
I think Webb has instructed him to retrospectively award us the penalty 60 seconds into the match. I'm OK with that.
