Offside offences using VAR should be judged using the body. Outstretched arms and feet shouldn’t come into it. Still offside in the above instance.
That still won't help. Then you'll just get ones where people start debating 'where the leg starts'.

Would love to see semi automated offsides try and contend with old mate Mr McCreig.

Data fed into the offside calculation is absolute. Distance of all players to goal line. Distance of ball to goal line. Exact moment when ball is played (sensor in ball). This system doesn't use a replay to decide offside at all. This is all that is needed to determine offside with certainty. Human intervention only needed when deciding active / inactive / interfering with play etc.

This system is as accurate as goal line tech.

In the example you provide it was absolutely correct as semi auto offside had the distance to the goal line of all defenders and the attacking player. There's no might have been with this system - the attacking player was closer to the goal line than 1 or less opposition players.

I'm starting to think you are not a real person who can give responses to discussion questions - but you some kind of primitive bot.
 
Can't see the video in the UK but had a discussion with my lad. He said that handling outside the box is an automatic red. I thought a yellow and only a red if he was denying a goal scoring opportunity.

Did they clarify that?

How old is your lad? Must be great that he's followed your love of City!

He's 14. He loves but gets way too emotional about it. I'm much more chilled (seen us crap, seen us good, a bad result isn't the end of the world etc).

Just need to get him to more games, he's mainly an armchair viewer at the moment.
