Not much contact there for me...player looking to go down...so we want var to referee the game. I thought only has to intervene for obvious errors...they keep changing their tune

Every time I see this thread near the top I keep hoping maybe its been binned altogether.
It needs to be.

If it makes you feel any better, Real Madrid just had a goal ruled out because VAR decided the edge of Mbappe’s head was about a centimeter offside when he was 45 yards from goal

2+2=4.
Offside is offside.

We wish mate. 100% needs swerving altogether but instead they try ways to fix it oh let's have the ref announce the decision etc. Just scrap it and leave the game alone

Is there a video replay of the foul so I can take a look?

First, it was handball.

The handballs that have been given against us as well, it's a farce.

Clear and Obvious is apparently what VAR is for. Neither the lad on the ball or the other Wolves player slightly behind the play even claimed for a penalty. They don't want VAR to be reffing the game they say. VAR isn't the problem, it's the dimwits operating it. We have the worst refs I've ever seen currently. On an unrelated note, did everyone see what David Coote is on bail for

Do tell

He's been charged with making an indecent image of a child. His descent has been steep. Grim stuff.

I think it was Illy yesterday, tangled with their left winger in our box and the ref waved it away before var could have even blinked.

Reckon ref was warned pre game no borderline shouts today as it'd be 3 on the bounce vs Everton?

This is why var sucks, Wolves penalised for awful officiating vs leeds and brighton. It draws us into the equation over the season that they go for and against you. All anyone is asking for is consistency. Then we have to be put through the farce involving man utd, and it just makes the system look even worse.
Hand the var officiating to an independent body outside of football, say, a mix of rugby referees. Their job is hampered because of 'in touch' calls obscured by bodies and camera angles, and similar 'try scored' or not. It doesn't apply in football. It's easier.

So the key match incident panel decided 3-2 in favor of a Wolves penalty, but when you take into account the ref on the day and the VAR on the day saying no penalty, I make it that its a 4-3 win for no penalty.

Offside is offside.

Clear and obvious error, not “let’s spend hours looking to see if someone’s toenail was offside seven passes before the goal”
