Yes, I know there's a VAR thread- but what I'm talking about is a thread where we only, solely focus on and literally tally up how many OBVIOUS, TOTALLY WRONG VAR calls are made- or not made- in either our favor or against us. If VAR makes an obvious error clearly in our favor, that's +1, if it makes an obvious mistake against us, that's -1. Also, another issue to note will be if the VAR cal or non-call affected the outcome of the match. If we're winning 4-nil away at Villa and there's an OBVIOUS foul in the box on, say, Kane that doesn't get called (we're talking STONEWALL) but we still bag the points then that should be noted as well. I'm suggesting a thread that's pinned that remains "alive" all season. Each week, where applicable, we list the game and time-stamp the incident, starting with match 1 through match 38. I'll try and start, from memory (and please feel free to add to my admittedly incomplete list!):
