Kinda expect it won't be the last both for and against.

And the lino was behind play as well

Goal line technology is needed but costs a packet so will perhaps never be used 250000 per Stadium is the average plus ruñning costs I expect on top

So chances of VAR to include offsides will be even longer

Isn't VAR supposed to be used for contentious decisions? Whether it be Premier or league 2, the linesman should be able to spot when a player is 1 or 2 yards offside.

Agree totally but the officials in League 2 are so poor that they often cannot make a call of Offside ( even when it is way offside) correctly

The West Stand linos always seem so poor especially the last few where several times they were way behind play and looked to be wrong on several offside calls
