Newcastle were on a breakaway, they stopped the game and decided it wasn't a penalty meaning Newcastle lost that opportunity. Not sure how that's an improvement myself.

It will always take away more than it gives
Will it?
If they made it 30 seconds to decide and then actually looked at the language they use for it's application - and the language of all the laws that they have fucked into crippling ambiguity - it would actually help to level the playing field.
Whereas atm it's only helping the same big, legacy clubs maintain their advantages.
Yes it will. Too much grey,you are only moving and intensifying the arguments while slowing down the game and fucking over match going fans.
It's not like fans weren't getting fucked over by officiating before VAR. I'm guessing you haven't been a Spurs fan for long?
You get fucked over but can accept it more as you expect more from VAR and it can't deliver. Getting fucked by the ref is more palatable than getting fucked by VAR.
I'm guessing you can't remember football being better pre VAR, I'm guessing you haven't been following football for long?
Why? How would he hide his anti spurs bias. This sgit of ex pros involved in var is ridiculous
Just a general question. Have you stopped celebrating goals as much? I know i have. Rarely a goal is given without a hold up. All it is now is a little fist pump when var allows it. Sucking the joy out of it
I don’t find getting fucked to be palatable at all mate and we definitely got fucked before. There is no excuse for getting fucked with VAR. I don’t want to GO BACK to the time when they had an excuse. I want them to use the technology to actually remove the excuse.
Right, because the people operating it don’t know what football is.
Majority of real football people thought Romero was a red. You going to be happy when VAR gives that a red because real football people gave it or feel more fucked over because they should know better.
It's shit and will always take away more than it gives. People who wanted it think there's a way for it to ref the perfect game they want to see ( which may have different decisions from decisons others want to see).
Yeah definitely, it has been like that from the start for me pretty much.
The last two home games it has been pointless celebrating. I even thought they would find a way to rule out lo Celso's goal somehow.
whos anti spurs?
Pretty sure yes, on the right because i thought it was weird to blow up at the time
id have to see it again but i thought the ball was around the halfway line and sort of going nowhere. if they actually stopped a counter newcastle would of kicked up a fuss.
Half way line with the Newcastle forward running at PSG defenders (2 I think) which was the only joy they were getting at the time. Was definitely moving forwards at the time.
