My moment of wondering whether the Premier League was worth it was the Arsenal game when VAR not functioning caused a 40 minute interruption and every big decision in the game was a farce.
Indeed, but the game in the PL isn’t a game for the match going fan, but is for the fan at home, be it Brixton/Bulawayo or Brisbane.
These are the fans they care about, and this is why the championship is more like the good old days, and is better for it
Yes totally agree. VAR is bullshit. Ruins goals and no one cares that much about which cm of arm a ball hits. They analyse hand ball claims in more depth than Elon Musk's Nazi salute!

The quality is lower but the sense of competition and the atmosphere at the grounds is just better (more often than not).
That said being in the Championship is a financial dead end.
The spontaneous celebration of a goal is no more.

Inconsistent? Yes. Understandable? Totally.
