Agree, as long as the final decision remains with the on field
official to retain their ability to interpret the Law as is
required and appropriate.

Am I correct in thinking that none of the VAR decisions made
this weekend were actually reviewed by the onfield official?
I was at Burnley on Saturday and the whole situation was
farcical. Those of us who actually paid to go to the game had
any idea what was happening because Simon Hooper just stood in
the penalty area and then, after about 90 seconds, he blew the
whistle which Vydra thought was the signal to take the penalty
only then to be stopped in his tracks by Hooper's raised arm,
quickly followed by the AR's raised flag and offside was given
--not against Vydra but against Sam Vokes who had not interfered
with play at all ---the ball having gone way over his head.
At no point did Simon Hooper go to look at the incident and, on
viewing the other incidents, I don't think that any other
onfield official reviewed a decision.
Is this going to be the normal procedure?
[/quote]
I'm pretty sure that offside was given against Vydra. Hence
there was no need for the referee t o look at the monitor.
I think the procedure in England will generally be that the
referee does not look at the monitor but accepts the information
from the VAR.
I know there has been mixed views on this. Personally I
generally think it helps for the referee to go and look - the
radio commentators for the Palace V Grimsby game were quite
confused by Atkinson suddenly pulling a red card out after he'd
shown a yellow. They were asking if it was for dissent, etc.
I think going to the monitor can help with the referee's
credibility, particularly when it's the second minute of a game,
and make it clearer what is happening (it would be different if
the officials were mic'ed up).
[/quote]
How will this work if say the referee has already cautioned a
couple of players for "orange" tackles but then another similar
tackle occurs which is not seen by the referee but is seen by
the reviewer (and which in his opinion is a red but would be
deemed by the referee as orange and a caution under the way he
has been refereeing the game)? Also presumably even if he looks
at the monitor the referee is not allowed to show a yellow
(which could also potentially be a second yellow for that
player).
[/quote]
I'm not sure I fully understand the question - the VAR looks at
everything anyway so if there were two similar tackles in the
8th and 82nd minute of the match, one of which resulted in the
referee showing a yellow card and the second of which the
referee didn't show a yellow card, the VAR should theoretically
either recommend a red card for both challenges if they think it
was SFP or allow the referee's decision to stand in both cases
if they don't think they were red card tackles.
[/quote]
If the referee has fully seen the first incident and is happy
with YC why should he be overruled by VAR suggesting a RC
(especially if the protocol in England is that the referee
doesn't go and look at a monitor)? If there is a suggestion for
RC then surely the onfield referee should be the final arbiter
and must review it on the monitor. As shown on here regularly
one man's YC foul is another's orange is another's RC.

I tend to agree with you that the referee should go and look at
the monitor for subjective decisions.
However, the PGMO would argue that the VAR should only be
suggesting that a decision be changed if it was clearly wrong -
hence if a tackle is in the 'orange' category I would suggest
that a referee failing to show a red card should not be regarded
as being clearly wrong.
The decision by Martin Atkinson in the Crystal Palace V Grimsby
game is more the type of challenge which would be upgraded from
yellow to red, which I think the majority of people would agree
with.

Times today reports that English football is proposing to change
its rules to allow replays of VAR decisions to be shown on big
screens when the new technology is introduced full time in the
PL next season. At present clubs are prohibited from replaying
contentious decisions at grounds for public order reasons, but
there is an awareness of the need to improve the fan experience
at matches. In the current PL, only Liverpool and Man Utd don't
have big screens and there are no plans to make them compulsory.
Instead VAR decisions would be communicated to fans at these
grounds via the scoreboard or stadium announcer, but without an
accompanying explanation. There are no plans either to set a
time limit for making VAR decisions, although it was noted and
criticised that it took almost two minutes for Anthony Taylor to
disallow Bryson's 'goal' for Derby v Southampton on Wednesday.
AT - at Selhurst Park, it is impossible for home fans in some of
the 'posh' seats to see the sole stadium screen at the
Whitehorse Lane end, and it could be a problem at grounds if
some fans can see a VAR replay and others not.

BT Sport commentator Darren Fletcher says that VAR will mean the
end of AARs in the Champions League.

I've also seen various reports that the VARs at Champions League
games will actually be at the stadium rather than from a central
base as happened in the World Cup and happens in the FA Cup.

First time tonight that English VAR wasn't out of Stockley Park,
and rather they were in a van in the car park.

Absolutely disgusting challenge in last nights game between H
Berlin and Schalke in the 13th minute. Challenge ticked all the
boxes for a red card: straight leg, over the top of the ball,
studs up! In fairness to herr brych I think his view is blocked,
and he gives a yellow!
VAR is in use in Germany, why did the var not say to brych you
need to looo at this challenge and decide whether it’s yellow or
red and I guarAntee he would have changed his decision! What’s
the point in having it if it isn’t going to be used for what’s
its supposed to?
