Each second of moving images is made up of 25 individual frames.

That's like a photograph.

You put 25 of them together, you end up with moving pictures.

If you stop play on the video image, one frame rather than the next, and the two players are running in opposite directions, the difference is a meter.

They change position by a meter.

So somebody in Stockley Park picks a frame to decide if a player is offside on, and that is the determinant of it.

That is a wild, inconclusive way of deciding if someone's offside.

I understand we have to have some way of doing it, but the idea that somebody's shoulder has just poked two centimetres beyond the defender and that makes them offside, that's not what it's for.

VAR, Alan Shearer, is anti-goal, and you should know that as much as anyone.

So, look...

The two incidents yesterday, two goals that we were denied yesterday, took four minutes and six minutes to resolve.

Clear and obvious.

If it takes four minutes and six minutes, it's not clear and obvious.

I still don't know if Ashley Barnes handled the ball.

And I've seen it back on all the replays available.

So what are we doing?

The soul of our game is at stake here, guys.

Please, can we just get rid of VAR?

We'll actually enjoy our season next year in the championship because it simply is not used.
