    Most teams in the league have been fucked by VAR…but I feel for Wolves. They have been on the end in some farcical decisions.

    Are Wolves the most screwed-over team in the league this year? They did not get an obvious penalty when Onana assaulted their player in the box, and now gave up a penalty that wasn’t - with both cases costing them points. I don’t really care about them one way or another as a team, but I hope they stay up just because it would suck to be relegated with this kind of ref incompetence as the cause.

    This was such a massive, brutal mistake, with zero opportunity for Wolves to recover. Horrible to watch.

    No one has borne the brunt of ref / VAR mistakes like Wolves across multiple seasons now, and no other club even comes close. Anyone frustrated with the state of refereeing etc. should be talking about Wolves.

    Imagine that this was a “big 6 team”. The outrage would be 24/7. I don’t know how wolves fans haven’t lost their minds

    Wolves gotta come out with a statement or something. They’ve been shafted the most this season it seems.

      I’ve got to feel for Wolves as you’re the only team this season we’ve had a favourable decision against.

    The main issue with this is that it’s the *exact* same mistake twice in a week. There are no learnings, no improvement, and no changes. They tie themselves in knots to support on-field decisions at the cost of making the wrong decision. All it does is take away what little trust and respect the referees had before.

    I want VAR to work because it has the potential for good in the game. As it is, the implementation has meant no one has a clue what the handball rule is, and the only consistency is that VAR gets something glaringly wrong every single week.

    Something has to change, and soon.

    Maybe this means Sheffield United can take the curse of Man Utd…or does it just spread from Wolves to everyone they touch

    The panel got one right amazing.

    Sorry to Wolves and their fans though. At the rate you are getting bad decisions I am really not sure its going to even out for you.

    Maybe this panel should be available for the match officials to call when there’s a review since they can’t get it right.
