>Championship clubs have turned down the chance to introduce a version of the video assistant referee system for next season.>Football Video Support (FVS), a variation of VAR which needs fewer resources and gives each coach two reviews per game, could have been brought in from August.>Professional Game Match Officials (PGMO) gave a presentation at the EFL's annual meeting last month.>The EFL subsequently canvassed feedback but it was clear clubs were strongly against any kind of video review system in the Championship.>BBC Sport understands the idea is closed for the foreseeable future and the idea is unlikely to be resurrected by the clubs in a year's time.>Goal Line Technology will continue to be used in the second tier, while there will be a cost-based analysis before a vote in June to extend it into League One.>In recent months, several managers in the Championship have called for VAR to be introduced.>Norwich manager Philippe Clement said there are "moments where I miss VAR to get the right decisions" after his side conceded a penalty against Ipswich earlier this month.>Former Bristol City manager Gerhard Struber said in January there are "many signs, evaluations that with VAR the decisions are better and more fair".>But the clubs showed no appetite to move forward with the idea, fearful of the impact on the game for supporters as well as the cost of introducing it.>VAR is used in the second divisions in Spain, Italy and Germany. It was due to be added Ligue 2 in France too until the collapse of the TV rights deal saw it scrapped on financial grounds.VAR is so unpopular here that even the clubs themselves are voting against its implementation, is this a uniquely English problem due to our poor officiating or do clubs in other countries wish they had done the same?
Seems like a disadvantage for clubs being promoted as they might not be used to playing with VAR in the PL
>>154316052extremely based.we need to rid the sport of all kinds of jewish influence
absolutely based. who fucking cares if a player is 2mm offside or if somebody clips the heel of a player five passes back in a goal scoring move, I want the game to keep moving and be finished in 2 hours so I can leave and do something else.
>>154321957it shouldn't affect how you play at all. what sort of reason is that? the ref gets it wrong and twice a game you have to wait a few minutes to continue, it doesn't change the tactics or playing experience.it costs £300k in scotland for VAR which is expensive for half of the scottish premier league, so i can see on financial grounds, none of the english championship teams want to pay that or more.
>>154324586Its a whole different mindset you have to get used to playing with. Scoring a goal doesn't mean the score has changed, that sort of thing.But anyway, based. Fuck VAR, actual fans don't want it.
Less chances to fix matches with VAR. You can't have that in leagues with less people watching
>>154326439Fixed matches are more entertaining anyway as long as you don't know they were actually fixed
>>154316052Basé et tradtionnel
>>154316052Big if true
>>154321957Retarded argumentIf the Championship used it, it would be a disadvantage for clubs promoted from League One, and so on
