Arsenal Vs Hull

[Paul_10]

He certainly couldn't have done that alone though as he has to say what the restart will be before the VAR process is finished. So if he said he was going offside surely one of the two senior FIFA officials in the VAR booth would have questioned that?

I'm not sure we'll get the audio from this one. Whilst it was controversial it hasn't affected the result, so the path of least damage to Pro Ref would be to brush this one under the carpet.

Or it won't fit in Webb's insistence of how VAR works perfectly and we got to show the clips where it does work perfectly with the odd exception.

However like the Palace v Chelsea case last year, I'll be disappointed if this does not get shown because I think transparency is key, if the officials are wrong here then it needs to be made clear so we know next time what to expect.

That's the ideal world scenario, but the Mic'd Up show in reality wasn't set up to only show incorrect VAR interventions or non-interventions. There was always going to be an element of spin to it, and I think they will only show the really controversial ones if the football world are up in arms about it (think Spurs vs Liverpool). Outside of the refereeing world no one is really talking about the Arsenal vs Hull offside as it didn't the affect the outcome of the game, and the majority of participants in football have very short memories once games are over if their team hasn't suffered.

That's the same reason the phrase "no surprises" has persisted in the refereeing world for decades. Using an example, had Ross Martin not given that penalty to Plymouth Parkway in the FA Cup no one would be talking about him now, but he gave it and is now a, presumably reluctant, social media star. Had he not given it there might have been a few moans but they'd have been forgotten about by full time.

I hadn’t seen either decision until I just looked them up because of this post!
Are you giving either? I can see why he’s given both but do you think he’s right? I think he is but also don’t know if I would be brave enough to give them?
