GWT: 2023-24 English Domestic Cups (FA/Carabao)

Remember there are people who think VAR is a good idea.

Well that was clear offside so yes, it was useful.

 

[Chimaera]

ETH forever !

You know how that Manchester United/Chelsea game a couple weeks ago was the dumbest game of the season? Yea I think this one has surpassed it.

Well that was clear offside so yes, it was useful.

"clear" offside. It was like 3 inches offside.

Without VAR this game would have ended with a huge injustice.

It's still offside. Besides, 3 inches is 7.5 cm so that's a lot.

The only fraud is the guy standing in the United technical area.

Do you mean the huge injustice to the cause of humor that ETH would be fired? Cause that's still on the table.

VAR is killing football.

 

[hatterson]

Casemiro's pen was just as low effort as his entire performance today

 

[spintheblackcircle]

VAR is killing football.

Football is more popular today than it ever has been.

If you want to say VAR is killing your enjoyment of it,ok, but football is fine

This dude walking up for Coventry with a smile on his face doesn’t fill me with confidence

 

[hatterson]

So on one hand we all got robbed today of Coventry getting an FA cup final.

But on the other hand this likely means we get to see ETH more which is also pretty amazing in a totally different way.

 

[Jussi]

GO RAZZMATAZZ!

 

[JeffreyLFC]

ETH job now secured.

 

[sabremike]

VAR is killing football.

And Hockey.

And Baseball.

And American Football.

Seriously just about every sport you can think of.

Should really still immediately replace ETH

This has been true for a long time.

My guess is the new owners are just basically writing this season off and will do a real manager search in the offseason so there's no hurry to fire him.

There might be a rush if there’s mutual interest with Zidane. Need to make that happen before he joins Bayern in that case

 

[sabremike]

The only way he saves his job is beating ciddy in the final and that has as much chance of happening as being attacked by a polar bear and a regular bear at the same time.

What quality manager is a) available and b) willing to takeover a team that has one healthy CB?

That would be a horrible jinx.

It's pretty clear what the meaning of the post was.

"Clear and obvious" it was not. When you're talking about margins like a cm or so like it becomes farcical, and totally reliant on the tech being calibrated to 100% accuracy.

You can't celebrate anything without the feeling that it's going to be called back in a couple of mins, and stuff like this isn't the reason that people wanted it in the first place.

 

[luiginb]

VAR haters are such dinosaurs

 

[Venkman]

Sums up United's season. Collapse when leading then get a lucky win.

Can't wait for Erik and most of the squad to f*** off.

Agreed no other decent bald manager to replace him if you exclude Zidane, Guardiola, Slot, Allegri, Conte
