At a minimum they need to give the referee a microphone like in NFL/rugby to allow people to know wtf is going on and the reason for decisions.

How can they even be arguing about that penalty? Even without the paused run up there were three Spurs players all the way in the box FFS.
I remember watching Liverpool - Utd in a FA Youth Cup game. Pogba done it and got a 2nd yellow card for doing the same thing.

Isn't the penalty usually retaken in that situation?
In the Youth Cup game I mention above it was.

Is Robbie Savage ****ing dumb? He just asked how long the game's taken at 20:16. The game started at 19:45, there was 31 minutes on the clock when he asked that question. Has VAR really added much time at all?

This has to be all in the interest of Rochdale. Rochdale's goal should be disallowed as they had a player offside that was pulling one of our defenders out of position, so interfering with play.
It'd never be given offside, and rightly so, but to be fair to how the rest of the game has been refereed that should be disallowed too.
VAR is making it easy to make poor and biased decisions.
