Do you mean an "off field" decision?Rich Tea Wellin wrote: ↑Wed Jan 10, 2024 9:46 am Watching the games at non prem grounds, I loved not having var.
The problem now is that the standard of reffing risks getting lower the more they rely on var. they know that if they mess up they have var to fall back on. I think they shy away from some big decisions for that reason. However, the way var works today means that the on field decision can affect the outcome.

On field decisions have affected outcomes from when referees were first introduced
Well, I guess they see it as an objective rule. You either are or aren’t offside. Pens aren’t as clear cutHoover Attack wrote: ↑Wed Jan 10, 2024 10:20 am Offsides are not treated to this 'clear and obvious' edict?
its clear and obvious that their definition of clear and obvious varies from cases to case and some ( not me) would say its clear and obvious that the use of the clear and obvious test is biased in favour of the big clubsHoover Attack wrote: ↑Wed Jan 10, 2024 10:20 am Offsides are not treated to this 'clear and obvious' edict?
