Premier League makes decision on whether VAR will be used next season

Not everyone will agree with this.

Premier League clubs have voted against using a video assistant referee (VAR) system next season.

However, it has been agreed that advanced testing on the technology will continue until at least the end of 2018-19. A statement read: "Premier League clubs have today agreed to continue advanced testing of Video Assistant Referees (VAR) throughout the 2018/19 season. The decision came after comprehensive discussions regarding the progress made in VAR trials in English football, and key learnings from the many competitions elsewhere using it. "The clubs recognised and are grateful for the substantial developments made by PGMOL Managing Director Mike Riley and his team." But fans of the technology will be pleased to know that the system will still be used for FA Cup and League Cup matches next year. All 20 member clubs voted on the decision at a meeting today.
