The key problem for me is that the initial decision on the field needs to have more weight and there need to be bigger hurdles to overturn it. The vast majority of decisions in football are judgement calls that can go either way and I feel that too many of those are being overturned because the ref leans in another direction after consulting VAR and for me that’s not enough. Unless he’s totally sure the initial decision was wrong that decision needs to stand.
