this will get worse

[64]

too much slow mo ,too much misdirection by poor managers and players away from their own failings, fans who know nothing about the rules egged on by awful TV pundits and you get the perfect storm. “that was never a red” when a player gets a second yellow and off etc, usually after a yellow and several more chances given by the ref . VAR has made it worse, ages pouring over a slomo that takes all context away which leads to hours of TV discussion and ultimately blaming the ref from both sides.

Reality TV Show?

I’ve said for a few years that ultimately football will end up a non contact sport like basketball.

For once I agree with the op. VAR is ruining the game in the top flight. It is getting worse, who knows where it will end.

And the ‘trainee Refs’ ruin it at our level.

The top level of the sport is becoming a different sport. Unfortunately due to its TV ubiquity the perceptions and opinions around that filter down to our level.
