Accurate mainly but causing total catastrophe. Has to be miles sharper in the Prem next season.

I’d take VAR out of the referees hands and give 3 goes to each manager.

For every successful VAR decision they get one back but if it’s frivolous then you lose it and if you lose all three then tough.

A bit like tennis.

It’s crap. It might improve a bit but it will always be crap. Once it’s in it’s never going and it will just always be crap.

VAR is not the problem, it`s how it is implemented.

All the decisions VAR scrutinised were correct though. The second England goal was a perfectly onside and to have it ruled out would have been plane wrong. Cameroon just didnt read want to accept the outcomes. They were shameful and as P Neville said, deserved nothing other than to be heading out.

VAR is basically years and years of moaning shithousery and berating refs when decisions dont go they way we want. Profesionals, media, fans all guilty and now the consequences are coming home to rooste.

That is true but if the rules of VAR say you can view an incident as many times as you like you will get situations like today where you watch a penalty which no one appealed 15 times and in the end decide you don't know and give nothing.

These offside calls are a joke as well, that Cameroon goal today how is the back of her boot being a millimetre offside any kind of advantage

I`m with Baz on this one, the refs need this pressure removed. It seems to me that the four operators allways appear to be waiting for guidence from the ref as to which incident needs reviewing, whereas i`m sure at least one of them could have the offside line already in place at every possible off side, and if that then is proven to be a clear off side, given as such.
I agree with your second point, clear day light and not a matter of mm`s should be the difference between on or off.

Not only were Cameroon shameful as you put it but also incredibly ignorant and disrespectful throughout the entire game .If we are being perfectly honest they should have finished with 8 players max if not less .They were a disgrace to their Country both on the pitch and their manager on the sidelines .
The Ref was way too lenient IMO and they took full advantage even pushing her over (TV Commentators claim it was ok)but it left a bad taste in many peoples mouths .
Fair play to England they did enough to win and held their composure despite the intimidation and dangerous late tackles .
They will have to tighten things up at the back though to beat Norway

Didn't think I'd ever say this, but I was hugely impressed with Phil Neville. His comments were perfectly honest, none of the usual BS we hear these days, said it as it was. Bloody good for him

The question that I want answered is: do we really want goals like Cameroon's disallowed? IMO she's not clearly offside, the goal should stand.

Also why can't the referees in the booth make the decision? It would speed things up massively.

I felt the decision was correct there. Brazil keeper has two hands on the ball the French player goes through her smidgen of handball to boot.

I’m afraid I disagree. The ball May have touched both the ‘keeper’s hands but she never caught the ball before the French player arrived. I think it must have been disallowed for handball. It may have touched her hand but i’m not sure it gave a clear advantage when it hit her chest and shoulder too.
Just thought i’d offer an opposing opinion and by doing so it shows why VAR will never solve all the problems. We watch the same replays and come up with a different answer.

Back to England’s game, I was shouting at the ref to allow England to take the free kick when Cameroon were having their second protest rally. They’d soon start playing if the opposition are on the counter-attack.

This really is turning into a fcuking nightmare now. Nobody wants to see Maradona punching one in or Frank Lampard's world cup goal 8 feet over the line being disallowed, but surely to Christ there must be a better way than this? I literally can't bear it. I'm honestly not sure if i'd watch the QPR matches if they were like this. I just...i just can't stand it. It'd end giving me a bloody stroke or something.

And i swear to God, if we get promoted and they are using VAR in the Premier league, we'd have absolutely zero chance of being allowed to get away with beating a top team. You could disallow every goal that's ever been scored if you looked hard enough. They'd just use it to make sure the bigs teams win every single match. Can anybody imagine a last second header against Liverpool at Anfield by QPR being allowed to stand with VAR? Granted, such a scenario is unlikely, but it might happen one day. No chance.

I've wanted them to use technology for years but Holy sh!t what a fiasco.

You’re either offside or you’re not, still rankles with me she Aguero scores at LR and the pundit said “he was a little bit offside” bollocks no such thing, he was offside end of.

Were they? The ones the referee went to view on the screen the penalty decision and the late yellow card both wrong imho.

I think there was about 18 mins of added time played in total, the vast majority down to VAR and the refusal of Cameroon to play.

The referee was very weak. Missed a blatant elbow on Nikita Parris in the opening minutes and several poor/late tackles/challenges. I believe she only showed one yellow card in the whole game. Decision on penalty and late 'possible red card' bottled (probably expedient).

FWIW I agree, offside law ridiculous, clear daylight more sensible. Attacking players are not watching their big toe or the back of their heel when trying to stay onside.

It's at the stage where I don't feel I can properly celebrate a goal until I know that it's not being checked VAR.

It's totally ruining the game in its current format, it can't carry on as it is.

That pundit was Phil Neville.Lets hope we don’t get knocked out by a goal that’s a little bit offside or a little bit of a handball.
Although with var now in place,we shouldn’t.

Clear and obvious errors. Just stick to that. Lingard having a size nine shoe not a size eight and therefore the tip of his boot if offside is not a clear and obvious error.

Agree Clive. In cricket you have the 'umpire's decision', which works well. And I'd take more from cricket too. VAR should only be used in exceptional circumstances generally - ball crossed line, offside. Something that can be proved 100%, no human error. Anything beyond that, teams have one Review each per game. If their review is correct, they keep it. If not, they lose it. But they must also say what the review is specifically for, not 'oh, we've conceded a late goal, was anything wrong with that in the previous 2 mins of play?'
Although even that would take ages. Basically, I'd stick to goalline technology. Everything else takes too long.

Bare bones.

should be a time limit on it as well, should take no longer than 30 seconds to review, if it takes more views than you can do in 30 seconds you stick with the on field decision

The Ref was criticized on TV for even checking out that late challenge instead of blowing the final whistle but its her job.No doubt in my mind if it was the EPL Cameroon would have 3 sent off and that is not even including the spitting incident which is revolting .
Once she only booked the player for the elbow on Parris it opened the floodgates and Cameroon showed their true colors after that .Throwing tantrums and abusing officials then following through on every challenge is not the way the game should played .
If she awarded that late penalty to England (violent play and a stonewall penalty IMO)then sent the Cameroon player off for that reckless late challenge (definite red IMO)who knows how dangerous it would have been for the ref so she probably made the best decision there .Sad day for Womens Football great day for England
