Sound of Football Podcast 653 - Tables, ladders and chairs

In the weekend's big fixture with importance at the both ends of the table, the VAR-assisted decision to rightly chalk off what would have been West Ham's late equaliser against Arsenal has caused huge controversy. Or at least, it has everyone talking about controversy. The incident itself has been passed on to the Premier League's Key Match Incident panel to decide whether or not the referee and his VAR made the right decisions. With only one qualified referee on the panel of five, is it more concerned with the "smell of the game" than laws and processes? And who is it helping?
