once again the prem manages to f**k up a simple thing such as video assistance (evidence ffs) to make the correct decision. If only we had waited till all the other sports in the world had introduced it (successfully) and then we can come along and ruin it. I'm with SCC28 on this to a point.
I still say do as the rugby do. Mic up the refs and put the replays on the big screen or let the on field ref review the footage pitch side. It isn't f**king hard to get right ffs. If the on pitch ref watches the replays then coupled with his on field experience of said incident then i trust them to get it right most of the time. By all means let the var give the opr the facts via audio but let the ref on the pitch make the call ffs unless it is obvious.
As for offside, it is the same as before var, play to the whistle.
