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.

Even with VAR it's often comes down to the referee making a subjective decision, VAR corrects the more obvious mistakes so I'm in favour. The one thing I think would improve VAR is a time limit - if you can't make your mind up after 30 secs then stick with the original decision. ******************** The emerging concern is players trying to game the system (Shankland against us in the 2-2 game) and I've seen 2/3 penalty claims in this WC where I reckon the attacker has caught the defenders leg rather than vice-versa. My opinion is that the players are more "clued up" than the refs.
