Never been about the decision. Slows the game, only moves controversy (their first goal today came from a free kick that was never a free kick & VAR doesn’t check that), makes it near completely pointless in celebrating goals until you know if there will be a check.

Helmettroll Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Feels like a loss. Convinced the Dons penalty was a double touch, no way could the ball spin like it did otherwise... Gutted.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven’t remotely said it shouldn't be in place. We were correct in voting for VAR because a democratic majority wanted us to. My point is it seems utterly baffling to me when you look at how much it ruins the game. (My opinion) Maybe avoid the made up, unsubstantiated claims? 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

northstbuddie Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Is this the first time in Scotland that VAR has got a decision hopelessly wrong (double touch at penalty) and which altered the outcome of a match in such a dramatic way? Who will take responsibility for such a fiasco? VAR was supposed to correct wrong decisions not make them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W6er Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 It says a lot about this team that we fought back from being a goal down and are disappointed with a draw. However, we played them off the park today and I am gutted to lose like that, but proud of the team. I hope the lads can pick themselves up and get a result next weekend at Livingston(?).

guinness Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Football is becoming a pile of shite. Good goals scored suddenly cancelled for reasons no-one in the ground knew about. Goals disallowed when even the players of the team favoured have not claimed. Genuinely think in a few years attendances will fall because people are pissed off watching games being decided by people not in the ground with no interest in the flow of the game. Also why does an obvious penalty like ours today require such a !ong check? If the criteria is clear and obvious five minutes is a joke. All you online watchers can fuc k off but we who attend are becoming fedup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
