Here are a selection of your views:Sam, Sheffield United fan: The use of VAR in the Championship play-off final last season was a sporting tragedy beyond comprehension. Ray, Ipswich fan: VAR is unnecessarily invasive and does far more than was initially intended. James, Middlesbrough fan: Given the fine margins that teams can be promoted on, we must have VAR in the Championship. Ryan, Southampton fan: Having been relegated with Saints and VAR delaying games, goals and celebrations, it is so much more enjoyable being back in Championship where you just take the game and decisions at the time. I would rather that than it being done by "VAR" and still being wrong and causing more issues than it resolves.
