With Wolves triggering a vote to scrap VAR, BBC Sport understands the majority of clubs are unlikely to agree. So what happens next?
Wolves are not the only ones aggrieved at VAR, after a fifth season of debate, scrutiny, complaints and apologies since the technology was introduced in 2019-20.
Another Premier League club told BBC Sport that they felt there was widespread support for VAR but that most clubs wanted to see improvements in how it was deployed.have all qualified for next season's Champions League, where VAR is in operation. While no guarantee that those clubs would vote in favour of keeping VAR, playing VAR-operated Champions League football could be more difficult if its removed from the Premier League.
Secondly, the Premier League itself is against scrapping VAR and they plan to demonstrate to members the improvements that have been made since it was introduced in 2019. Before then, there could be dialogue between clubs to get a feel for how members are feeling about the vote, and which way they are likely to side.
"What this does provide is the chance of a real and honest discussion of what VAR is in the Premier League, what the clubs want it to be and where it goes.
