VAR: Premier League referees' body aims to improve use of technology

The Premier League referees' body is aiming to improve the use of video assistant referees next season after surveying key figures at clubs.

The results of the survey will be presented to referees in the summer as part of a plan to help with the consistency of decision-making.

There is an acceptance that the use of VAR could be improved after several controversial incidents this season.

Clubs discussed potential changes to VAR at Thursday's shareholders meeting.

Earlier this season, referee Mike Dean had two red cards overturned on appeal after he used VAR to send off Southampton's Jan Bednarek and West Ham's Tomas Soucek.
