The Premier League
And then Chelsea scored after 54 minutes which would never have existed without that stupid VAR check 

VAR has fully influenced this game. What's the point.

They've got a few very unlikeable players - particularly Cucurella and Fernandez.

Chelsea about to get a penalty now which is less of a penalty than we weren't given at Wolves last season.

This would be tweet territory levels of bias against a club, wonder what the khans will do. I bet it hardly gets mentioned on motd or ref watch on Sky Monday

Maybe if any other club ever has the guts to stand up against these awful officials, they shouldn’t be mocked and ridiculed by other fans, clubs and the media.

These officials and VAR are not fit for purpose. Too much at stake for them to be this bad.

The PGMOL needs gutting. Outside people need to be brought in, they’ve shown they aren’t capable of cleaning house themselves.

Howard Webb is the Russell Martin of referee management.

How he still has a job is beyond me.

Im still hugely disappointed at the 19 Premier League clubs including Forest who didn’t back the Wolves proposal to scrap VAR. Its a ridiculous and unworkable system that ruins the game.
People will say its fine it just needs to be implemented competently, I disagree it adds another layer of subjectivity, watching endless slowed down replays you can always find something, the position at which the camera angle is taken from (the pen claim we didn’t get vs Brentford, camera 100m away) or where they view the offside angle, when the ball was kicked etc etc. Games are effectively re referreed and results are changed. One persons error (the ref) is at least consistent for both teams, you add in 5 other officials you multiply the incompetence.
Its rubbish on TV, its catastrophic in the stadium.

Yes I know Im wasting my breath. Also realise if we scrap it in this country it puts us at a disadvantage in European and International games. Doesnt alter the fact its a shit system that anyone who understands what the game is about detests.

The system is fine. It's the decisions the humans are making that's the problem.
