The news today that SPFL clubs are baulking at the £100,000 a year cost per club of VAR being introduced shows clear as day the mismanagement of Scottish football and how Doncaster and co are thriving on that mismanagement.
As the Guardian’s Ewan Murray explained, Doncaster has been doing everything he can to promote the non-install of VAR, the abandonment of the idea, bringing in, among other things, a ludicrous vote AGAIN to decide on the technology’s introduction.
And that Scottish clubs lack the finance to support £100,000 a year (£1.2M per season) for the tech shows just how diabolically-run our game has been.
If we put this into some perspective, every other ‘first world’ nation in professional football has VAR, every league which has at least one heavyweight side (and quite a few which don’t) has brought it in.
Let’s look at some of the examples of leagues with VAR:
Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Chile, China, Colombia, Croatia, Cyprus, Israel, Hungary, Indonesia, hell even Morocco has it.
We could go on all day.
But the SPL, with Rangers and Celtic? No VAR.
You are not seriously telling me Brazilian clubs are rolling in cash, that Cypriot teams are megarich and that Hungary have huge amounts of scrillah?
And yet every one of them has VAR, each footing their portion of the bill.
In Scotland?
Apparently it’s too much for St Mirren, Hearts and Utd.
What happened to Scottish football that something every other second and third-world league can afford, this country can’t?
When did we end up this low?
As I posted earlier this is not about money, and even if they say it is , like I said before like the plastic pitch bullshit if they can’t pay eject them from the league as they quite quickly and inceramoneously did to us . ..Its bent bent bent . Like this almost third world country .
they rather pay the fenians for using there disco lights in there shit pit of a stadium
sack disaster doncaster whose useless anyway and kick the pot off with his £400,000 pay
