I'm slowly falling out of love with football... And it's because of the neverending hyperbolic nature of it. in c/[email protected]

Just watch the games and stay off social media.

Live VAR audio would be 'chaotic' in c/[email protected]

I guess then the question would be, why would we only hear the interactions between the ref and the VAR, and not the conversations with his other assistants? It probably would be chaos, it's hard to disagree - but maybe it's worth an experiment or two?

I don't mind not hearing the conversations live. I would still quite like to hear (or see) the reasons for decisions during the match, once they've reached a decision.

Especially as at the moment you get a worse experience live than sat at home. That's bonkers.
