Does this mean we're likely to get less 5050 calls going forward? Refs will subconsciously think we had too many decisions go our way that have caused negative headlines so we'll have to watch them "even them up" while we protest in vain about Old Trafford last year balancing out all the ones in our favour.

Yes, probably, we've been firmly brushed with the "wow Villa got away with loads so they are to blame for needing VAR" now and everyone will be against us!

Scandalous, it's like he taps him on the shoulder with one finger.

Seeing that makes me realise that clubs like us, Geordies et Al, have absolutely no chance of breaking through properly.
The fact that that's been seen by VAR too proves it's corrupt.
