When will we get penalties for what year man utd get them for?
In a fair world, Rushford will get a 6 game ban. 3 for successful deception of a referee and 3 for successful deception of VAR.
Blatant cheat, less contact from a fly landing on you.

Agree with George's posts the other day on VAR in which he seemed to be alluding to dark forces within the ( corrupt ) world of tbe football.

As the FA and EPL are as ever very, very weak with Penchester United and certain other teams cheating diving for penalties etc ; these offences are still only very rarely being punished by the refs during tbe game and likewise even more very rarely retrospectively punished by the authorities after the game.

Added to the ever ongoing controversies of the offside rule and handball rule, the increasing poor decision making/ possible bias of the VAR officials and other officials and all in all the integrity of the EPL competition is being severely eroded.

This is what I have been saying for a while. VAR just allows said dark forces more control. Sadly power corrupts and that power is now with those who are already corrupt.

{Ed001's Note - Arsene Wenger is right, take it out of the hands of the referees and have specifically trained VAR operators to run it.} Become a Patron!

Won't make any difference Ed - as long as whoever makes the VAR decisions are corrupt it will be used to serve the outcomes that they want and not the good of the game. Its sadly a tool for bending tge game to the PL's wishes and not a tool to make the game fairer.

It's a good idea Ed. I thought our Bamford goal on Friday was onside.

Ed001 Wenger only half right. Take out of referee hands yes but giving it to specially trained VAR people will only produce similar consequences imo. Their trainers and themselves not beyond temptation so it has to go to someone else or more precisely a new system or systems ought to come in whereby the decisions are numerically and graphically proven in real time. To compliment the video side of things, a combination of photo finish technology used in Athletics and Hawkeye used in cricket should be introduced. The movement of players can be referenced to time and the split second. Then the decisions can't be bent. This is George free recommendation to the authorities and ought to be the subject of an online petition in order to create legitimate pressure.

{Ed001's Note - Wenger wants to control the VAR rather than PGMOL.}
