Significant moment in Norway, where clubs from the top two divisions have voted to abolish VAR. Will be their formal recommendation to Norwegian FA ahead of decision in March.

Imo, many leagues struggle from fundamental incompetence at the basis with or without VAR. Any tool can be fantastic if handled correctly. VAR is not the problem.
It is A problem, and a bloody annoying one. I go to football to watch football, not a ref looking at a screen. I also want to celebrate knowing a goal has been scored.
I've come to this same conclusion. Essentially football brings joy and despair in not quite equal measure. The waiting to see which it is is such a ruiner. And it's not like it's trying to get a medical diagnosis right - it's football.
They will push a narrative on the smaller clubs, which by the way never will be effected by VAR, and repeat the strategy they used in the debate about Qatar.
One of the problems with VAR in Norway, is the lack of cameras compared to other leagues. There has been multiple situations where VAR couldn't do anything because they couldn't see it.
So imagine the premier league issues, but with less camera coverage :D
Na, was relegated last season, to a division without VAR. Everyone loved it, promotion to top division again came with mixed feelings. Our main rivals got relegated for this years’ season, and we kinda envy them
unfortunately, too much money has been spent on it and we are too far through the looking glass for this time happen here but well done the norweigans. a great bunch of lads.
