VAR.. (again)

I’m sure I read, that when VAR comes in next month, to Scottish football, we won’t be told who is on VAR duty for that match. When a live game is on Sky or BT sports, they name the referee of the match, plus who ever is in charge of VAR that match. Just another cover up in Scottish football.
 
It was a perfect example of how VAR can be used as a weapon in any way the VAR operator sees fit.
Obviously, England has strict conditions on who refs matches but you don't have to be a fan of a club to want it to go a certain way. You may have a wee bet on or a mate who's asked for a favour!!
The decision against West Ham was a joke!!
But this is what I fear when it comes to Scotland. Where we do have refs with agendas. They will be seeing things like this all over the park in order to help one team.
 
So Moyes is slagging VAR off again in the EPL. Its never going to solve disputes so whats the point. It wont solve any of our disputes when it comes in.
So what is the actual point of it?
just so the cheating is easier to deflect away with chosen replays that suit their agenda.

it also can help make sure the result they want is even more likely. the penalty for england against denmark that was clearly a dive but ref didnt call was a prime example imo. some nameless dude said nothing to see to ref after he made his error.
 
VAR should be a wonderful tool used to overturn horrendous mistakes that we used to see week in week out. However it is how it is being implemented that is the problem.

The West Ham goal being chalked off because the Chelsea goalie dived into the attacker's feet and the Crystal Palace own goal wiped out because their defender clearly shoves the Newcastle striker into the goalie were two of the worst VAR decisions ever seen.

Of course the big worry for us up here is the "Dallas Legacy". So that generation of Dallas approved (and their acolytes once he was sacked for bigotry) cheating MIB bassas who we finally got rid of as they were too old will be the ones manning the VAR studio. It will be clowns like Madden or Beaton advising arseholes like Walsh & Don Robertson that Celtic goals need to be cancelled because Jota tried to injure Goldson's elbow with his nose.

No point in having var when the useless knts we have don't even know the rules i can bet certain flash points involving sevco will be airbrushed out just a bit like sportscene do

so really who does work var and what will they actually call out

yesterday there was some weird decisions when sevco players went down for no reason ,yet play was stopped and a drop ball given same with some of the advantages that were pulled back

Each ot our refs who have been on european juty have been mocked as idiots who don't know the rules that's where the problem lies untill there is a clear out then nothing will change var will be just another secrative tool to help them along the way
 
The worry is...madhun is going to be the guy running scottish VAR....
There's a reason he's popped down to England before he retires and join the ranks with the like of Dallas. To get a bit of insight and training on how it works!!
If you were to compare the LRA to the Nazis then madden would be the blonde haired, blue eyed, perfect specimen creation of Hitler (Dallas) himself!!
