Can you imagine VAR in this bigoted little country where like it or not your either a Billy or A Dan do you think any one will give us the benefit if he's got a liking for the hooped horrors or will any Rangers leaning man give them a decision  more worrying is if the operators are appointed the same way as the compliance officer  .

I think it'll be far more unlikely for them to go with their prejudices, simply because they cannot deny what's being shown in black and white. 

 

There will still be an element of subjectivity for some decisions, so incompetency will continue. It's more for the objective, black-and-white decisions what will start being corrected, that makes me favour VAR. 

 

Just think of the number of offside goals we'd have scored last year.

 I would rather have three Willie Collums in charge   ?

I think today was an example of how VAR would be beneficial to us despite the fact at the end of the day we didn't need it. But with it we could have been looking at an even more humiliating rout. Anything that can be beneficial to us more often than not has to be good and I believe it would be beneficial more often than not. It could be the difference between dropping points or not.

Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo said video assistant referee decisions are affecting "the spirit of the game" after his side had a goal ruled out in their scoreless draw at Leicester.

I'm pretty sure that's a common opinion from managers who just had a decision go against them which cost them points. Despite the fact all VAR does is highlight whether or not a goal was legitimate. In this case it wasn't.

Presumably he would prefer the old days of allowing dodgy/illegitimate goals to stand until that is such a decision results in an illegitimate goal against him that cost him the match.

You can't have it both ways and in the case of Rangers I think it would favour us overall. Potentially even the difference between winning or losing the league. It would have favoured us today which could have made the difference on another day when the goals were't flying in so freely.
