Someone else pointed this out, but the 2/5 were saying they wouldn't have gotten VAR involved, meaning they thought it wasn't a clear and obvious error, not that they didn't think it was red card.
The whole "clear and obvious" thing is a huge issue. Ironically, it will never have a clear definition.
Ok, but if they thought it was a red, and the ref didn’t give a red, that’s a clear and obvious error by proxy. If they didn’t think it was a clear and obvious error they cannot have thought he should have been sent off
It’s just a completely pointless caveat that adds more confusion into the whole process.
