What would happen if there were no referees, no linesmen/women, no VAR?

I bet the games would be a good bit more enjoyable!

Well then there wouldn't be any rules, so it would whoever is the dirtiest and most physical team would win every time.

Like AI point scoring in Boxing…

Could be on to something. strict application of the rules no influencing officials of the Uglies

I’m happy for humanity to go extinct if it means we have less outlander tours clogging up the roads and generally being a nuisance

Not even remotely close these days. The best footballing teams tend to win.

You hardly ever see thunderous tackles in the modern game.

I would say the team that plays the most effective tactics tends to win. That's not always the tactics that are the most pleasing to watch, just the most effective at getting the job done.

Big improvement IMO, would stop players going down at the slightest contact

We'd still find a way to remain rock bottom.

The biggest one for me is where would we be now if we had actually signed Jamie Cureton?

Or if we signed Adam Le Fondre one of the first 15 times we were linked with him
