VAR
I HATE the system of a video assistant referee. One of the best aspects of football - particularly in the English league - is the pace and flow of the game. Having constant (or indeed any) interruptions to review video is going to absolutely ruin that. The game doesn't need it. Especially if you have a half decent referee who can manage a game properly. I'm OK with something like goal line technology that makes an instantaneous decision. But video review is slow and disruptive to the game - the last thing we want to do is make football stop and start like American football. And the fact that it is going to be used in the World Cup is bound to cause at least one big moment of controversy during the tournament - just wait and see. Technology is already ruining our lives, now it is ruining the beautiful game.
