Now the Luton hierarchy saying Everton and forest not docked enough points. people will do anything to stay up I guess. But mad as a hatter comes to mind! ?.
{Ed001's Note - to be fair, if you were in their position you would say that as well. This is the problem with football, the tribalism means people only look at things from their own position and never try to see things from the other side. That is why VAR is still a disaster, because the only ones that care are those on the receiving end of a bad decision that game week.}

Don’t get the Luton criticism as the years the breaches happened they weren’t in the league so unsure why they think they should benefit from the punishments.
Surely they should just concentrate on their football rather than complaining about the advantage they are being given with 2 relegation rivals having points docked not being a big enough advantage to them?
{Ed001's Note - I agree with you, but if you were in their position wouldn't you be calling for bigger penalties in the hope of surviving?}

Totally agree ed 001 with the var i think there needs to be new rules in place or scrapped completely i like how spain uses there var to determine if there players are offside when they score like 10 seconds is it IFAB could be wrong where we just draw lines like kids are drawing them in stockley park or using microsoft paint Haha.
{Ed001's Note - they need to take it away from the PGMOL and have independents using it. They should only ever suggest a ref looks at the monitor, not make any decisions.}

Neither team should not have been docked any points. The process is not fully documented with regards to penalties due to breeches and having a open ended punishment policy is farcical. But that's what happens when you have a hierarchical members club run by self serving muppets.

Yeh Ed, as I said people would do anything and I'm sure we clwould too if the boot was on the other foot.

I’m still to have anyone convince me that VAR should be used like the TMO in rugby. Mic-ed up officials and it is used fairly quickly and efficiently. The only time it takes up longer than a few minutes is when it is a game changing incident.
How the muppets in charge of VAR haven’t learnt from other sports that use technology properly amazes me every decision that seems strange (and less face it, there are enough of them every week in most games)
