What about a set number of reviews of VAR per team per game?, in cricket teams are allowed so many reviews per innings then once they are used up then that’s your lot. Plenty of teams asking refs about the validity of a decision and then VAR is used, perhaps three per game and then you have no more left to question the ref?. Just a thought.
I think this would be terrible in football. In cricket you see loads of speculative reviews when teams try it on “just in case”. In cricket, the ball’s always dead at this point but at what point would you use them in football? Because I can see loads of teams using reviews late on in games to try to disrupt the opposition, perhaps even breaking up counterattacks? I just think it would add to the current confusion.
But ultimately while you’ve got people like WG who either don’t understand the laws of the game or who refuse to understand them, what help have we got?
