The Premier League has launched a VAR consultation with players and managers, but we believe one vital component is missing from that selection – match-going supporters.
We are launching a survey which aims to pull together the opinions of fans throughout the country on the implementation of VAR, to examine fans’ experiences with it, and the areas that need improvement.
The results of our survey will be fed into the Premier League consultation as part of our regular meetings with the game’s authorities. It’s vital that the fans’ view is heard on one of the game’s biggest issues.
Stadiums have, of course, been largely empty for the past 12 months, so while we are asking those of you who have experienced VAR in stadiums to give us your feedback, we are also interested in your opinion as TV viewers.
The survey should take no more than five minutes to complete.

Our Away Fans Survey is back again this season, entering its sixth year of recording the away fan experience across England and Wales.
The FA Council is due to vote on the potential sale of Wembley later this month – and supporters are being asked to have their say on the controversial proposals.
We’re looking for supporters’ experiences with police to help inform the north west’s IAG – a of group of fans that provide direct feedback to police on their match-day activities.
