You need to start watching the games while comprehending what would happen if there was no VAR.
++++++
some of us have 'watched' football for a longtime before VAR came in and the contreversy was never as bad or as intense at it is now. Its literally ruining the game. Especially for those who are actually 'watching' the games in the stadium. VAR is designed for the TV viewers and gives the television companies easy content to fill to film time before during and after the games with their 'match annalysis'. People in the stadiums (Old Trafford anyway) dont really know wtf is going on on with a VAR call. It ruins the whole match experiences.

I hear this a lot, and don't deny it to be the case for some, but football's more expensive than ever and grounds are packed, so it still seems to be a worthwhile enough experience for those attending.

I respectfully disagree. I certainly don't want to go back to pre VAR days myself. VAR isn't perfect but I much prefer it.
TV and matchgoing experiences. And never the twain will.meet.
VAR ain’t the issue. It is the corrupt refs and assistants reviewing in charge that ruins it.
The Video part is great, just need competent people.
