I try and cover this in the proposal. The VAR vote is aimed at what VAR is today & for next season. If they can introduce something in the future that means we can check everything in 30 seconds & you’d be happy with it, fair. Right now, the tech doesn’t allow for it.  For me, I don’t see any reason we should continue with a suboptimal VAR while they make these changes in the background. If they want to come back in the future & vote on a far improved VAR system they can. My caveat to that future though. The World Cup is gold standard, it’s the most cutting edge, technologically advanced VAR system ever used anywhere in the world. They’ve still got multiple calls wrong imo, it lacks consistency, it lacks transparency & it still impacts fans ability to celebrate.   It also (again IMO) shows unbelievable and blatant favouritism to bigger nations. Isn’t that supposed to be a selling point for VAR, to stop the bias? 

Will be a number of different views, I’m sure.  My main issue with this ‘fix’ is it will effectively just move the problem.  - that was a wrong call, why didn’t they realise in 30 seconds? - we have to draw offside lines because our VAR is rubbish. If that’s not done in 30 seconds, what happens?  - similar to above, our VAR is bargain basement. If you’re checking different aspects, build up, contact, offside… again what happens if the actual check to get the info is more than 30 seconds?  My personal view is, anything that impacts the split second capability to celebrate a goal or other big decision in football, is fundamentally not comparable with the beautiful game. That’s largely because of what you said (football is subjective)  But as noted to FS, I’m not looking to change minds. I’m only wanting fans across Scottish football to have their say. 

I think your points are spot on. You fix tech problems, you don't just abandon it (maybe make a exception with HS2). I especially agree with your time limit point. It is not clear and obvious if it takes that long to decide.
