Not fair to criticise VAR just because you don’t like final decision, says Howard Webb
Referees head wants to rebuild trust in video technology‘Ref’s call’ one of new measures to clarify VAR this season
Howard Webb has said much of the criticism of VAR is because people don’t like the outcome of a decision, as the head of the Professional Game Match Officials Ltd (PGMOL) tries to rebuild trust in refereeing in the Premier League.
Webb, the chief refereeing officer, has announced a series of measures before the new season intended to speed up VAR decisions and clarify the criteria on which decisions are taken. But he has also pushed back against criticism of the video technology.
