VAR

The Jesus one didn't make it more interesting though that's my point, it was in the last minute of the game and City were already 3-1 up in their game, it had absolutely no effect on anything whatsoever - nobody was sat there thinking West Ham were going to score another 3 goals in the next 90 seconds so the idea that it was 'blatant corruption' just doesn't stand up.

I agree with the general point, I think some clubs get more beneficial decisions than others, but it's very easy as fans to see things purely from our own perspective and ignore the thigs that don't fit with what we want to believe. I have no idea to what extent decisions in our games would be seen to have 'evened themselves out' if analysed by a neutral observer but I would bet a lot of money that it would be a lot closer than people would have you believe on here. That's not a criticism and obviously not specific to us, all fans are going to focus more on perceived injustices against them and largely ignore borderline decisions which go their way.

Fans of all clubs think there is a conspiracy against them when it comes to VAR. You only have to listen to the RS fans who, when VAR rules against them go on about a conspiracy by the premier league and the referees doing everything in their power to make it as difficult as possible for them to win the league.
