Petition Action

Demand that the FA scrap VAR

Petition Details

The FA persists with VAR, despite the fact that it is destroying football; they refuse to listen to fans, players or managers despite the clear evidence that it does not work and does not prevent incorrect decisions. The government must pressure the FA to scrap it in the public interest

Additional Information

Football is the only thing many people have to look forward to at present. VAR is destroying the passion, flow and enjoyment of the beautiful game; it prevents fans and players from celebrating goals and causes needless delays in play and does not prevent wrong decisions or lengthy debates around decisions rendering it utterly pointless

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We can't accept your petition because the UK Government and Parliament aren't responsible for the issue you raise. Decisions about how to referee football matches is a matter for organisers and the football authorities, not the Government or House of Commons.
