A debate is currently occurring about if it would be better to scrap VAR now of risk people turning off the sport due to time delays and bizarre decisions VAR Is making.

    Yes. I have stopped watching full matches. The time stopping for VAR checks is like American football game pauses. Eventually, Sky sports will be putting commercials n during they time.

    That’s just the time it takes for checks. Nevermind the inconsistencies of the outcomes, which is worse than the game pausing.

      This is actually a crazy idea that has probably been discussed in meetings. They could charge more based on the popularity of the teams.
