York City co-owner Julie-Anne Uggla writes to the EFL and National League about the "glaring imbalance" of the current promotion system.
The article from the BBC Sport website discusses the ongoing debate about the use of Video Assistant Referees (VAR) in football, focusing on the perspectives of managers Jurgen Klopp and Ange Postecoglou. Klopp, the Liverpool manager, expressed his frustration with VAR, particularly after a controversial decision in a match against Tottenham where a goal by Luis Diaz was wrongly disallowed. He suggested that the system needs significant improvements or should be scrapped altogether. On the other hand, Tottenham's manager Ange Postecoglou argued that VAR has not improved the game and might be fundamentally flawed, suggesting that football's fast-paced nature is incompatible with the technology. Both managers agree that the current implementation of VAR is causing more problems than it solves, with Postecoglou advocating for a return to traditional refereeing methods.
