The crowd are left baffled and bemused by the whole system

“SUPPORTERS aren’t opposed to progress and the introduction of goal-line technology has proven popular but critically these results are instantaneous and haven’t broken the flow of the game.

“The problem with VAR so far has been the lack of clarity for those in the stadium - the process isn’t communicated to fans and yet again we saw a game’s flow interrupted by decision after decision.

“So far the system has not been a hit with match-goers and their experience has to be central to the improvements that are needed if VAR is to be successfully introduced.”
