"https://www.theguardian.com/football/2023/aug/25/mike-dean-admits-avoiding-var-call-to-spare-referee-more-grief-last-season ""Mike Dean has admitted he failed to correct a mistake in a Chelsea v Tottenham match last season to prevent his friend Anthony Taylor receiving extra “grief”."" Surely, they can't continue having the same group of refs operate VAR as they ones they put on the pitch? Wouldn't it make complete sense to have 2 independent groups, one to oversee the other without any bias etc. For a competition with clubs in it worth billions why do they allow for so much bullshit? The VAR technology is undermined by the people operating it basically. Refs mates calling decisions for them,... it's madness."
