That's their proposed solution? Joke.
Can’t believe that fat mess Lee Mason is the first dedicated VAR…. But anyway, hopefully these changes announced make things a bit better from this season.
Get rid of the lines, I just want the obvious ones to the naked eye on replay ruled out. Not the end of someones toe nail.
So on the final day they need to find 50 to watch all the game?I've always said easiest way forward for VAR is to have a 5 person panel.
Any major incident occurs (penalty / no penalty, red / no red card) - they all vote on whether the correct call was made. 3 votes means match referee has to complete on screen review. 4 votes or greater for an overturn = automatic overturn. VAR staff need to be specialists, not drawn from same pool as match referees.

He isn’t doing it ever againShocking read. Dean didn't recommend checking for a foul cos Taylor is his mate . How can he do VAR ever again.
VAR should be able to work in it's current format, the current operators just aren't good enough.
Fix the VAR officials, make all audio available (at a minimum to clubs, but preferably to the public), I'd introduce a challenge system as well.
And stop changing interpretations/standards of proof etc. The one bit of sympathy I have for VAR officials is that one year, you don't overturn much, the next year you're encouraged to overturn.
This year (apparently) they are showing more lenience with non deliberate handballs. But all we see as supporters is penalty decisions not made that would have been made last year. There's next to no communication from PGMOL and it just makes their officials look.i competent.
At least you could force another look. And with audio, the ref would have to justify why he made the decision he did.Challenge system will never work. Too much subjectivity. It's not like DRS which is black & white 98% of the time.

The panel of 5 is a much better idea for me - as long as they are VAR specialists not drawn from the same pool of matchday referees. If a 3-2 majority believe an error has been made send it to the ref for a on screen review. And a 4-1 or 5-0 majority sees the decision automatically reversed. No biases and a range of differing opinions should pick up obvious errors more often than not.
