“Get over it”, “stupid statement”- Some Blues fans rip into boss over his controversial comments

I suppose it wasn’t going to take long for the subject to rear its ugly head in our direction.

V.A.R has been a hot button topic all season in English football, and now Birmingham City have managed to get themselves embroiled in it after a controversial decision on Wednesday night against Millwall.

And Blues boss Pep Clotet has had his say on the matter, saying that he believes that V.A.R should be brought in to the Championship, because it has cost the Blues on too many occasions this season:

“A few situations this season have stopped us getting into a position where we would have had more points and been much higher up the table. When I say much, I mean much because everything is so tight you would think about six-seven points more. I don’t mind staying ten more minutes in the game but get the three points from yesterday because it was deserved.”

However, despite the uproar that it caused amongst the Birmingham City fans in the aftermath of the Millwall game, it seems as though V.A.R isn’t on the agenda for Blues fans at the moment as they slammed both the idea, and Clotet for even suggesting it in the first place.

I wonder if views would be different if the team was in a promotion/relegation battle when every point counted?
