BR0B0T there is no workable way of VAR doing offside that doesn't come down to measuring a finite point
other than making it subjective

One of my suggestions which got laughed at for was to have sensors at the side of the pitch that emit rays, and attach pads to the players which are different for each team so then it will by the MM say which player is where. Foolproof.

Not bad for an accountant.

Having an accountancy qualification doesn't mean you have to be an accountant.

John Madejski's Wallet I don't understand the VAR decision in the Watford-Wolves match...…..the ref saw the whole thing and decided a yellow and the VAR overturned that to a red.
But the VAR didn't show anything the ref hadn't seen, that was literally re-refereeing a decision rather than spotting something the ref missed.
Didn't realise that was a thing

URZZZZ Think it’s ridiculous and completely unfair that only some FA Cup games get VAR and others don’t. Just let it go Let’s just hope we don’t get an away Prem draw!

Why is it unfair?
Who gains / loses any advantage as a result of only some games having VAR coverage?

Not from a refereeing perspective.
Completely agree with URZzz different rules for different games in the same competition is crazy. And it is different rules because of the way offsides are officiated with VAR at the very least.

Are the same rules in place all the way back to the first round?
Not trying to be argumentative here, genuinely interested. And I hate VAR

But there is no advantage to anyone as a result of VAR so it would be daft not to use it to give more accuracy in the officiating.
If anything there might be a slight gain (not advantage) to the lower ranked teams against PL teams as there is a valid perception that the latter TEND to be given the rub of the green in marginals.
