🚨 𝐎𝐅𝐅𝐈𝐂𝐈𝐀𝐋: Wolves sent formal letter to the Premier League proposing to remove VAR! 📺⛔️
“The introduction of VAR in 2019/20 was decision made in good faith and with the best interests of football and the Premier League at its heart”.
“However, it has led to numerous unintended negative consequences as that are damaging the relationship between fans and football and undermining value of Premier League brand, which include:
◉ Impact on goal celebrations and the spontaneous passion that makes football special.
◉ Frustration and confusion inside stadiums due to lengthy VAR checks and poor communication.
◉ A more hostile atmosphere with protests, booing of the Premier League anthem and chants against VAR.
◉ Overreach of VAR original purpose to correct clear and obvious mistakes, now overanalysing subjective decisions and compromising the game’s fluidity.
◉ Diminished accountability of on-field officials, due to safety net of VAR, leading to an erosion of authority.
◉ Continued errors despite VAR, supporters unable to accept human error after multiple views and replays, damaging confidence in officiating standards.
◉ Disruption of the Premier League’s fast pace with lengthy VAR checks and more added time, causing matches to run excessively long.
◉ Constant discourse about VAR decisions often overshadowing the match itself, so tarnishing the reputation of the league.
◉ Erosion of trust and reputation, with VAR fuelling completely nonsensical allegations of corruption.
