Does the clock get reset? Do fans get back the time used up by void football between the incident and the penalty?

What if it happens on 81 mins?  Do those that have just left have to come back in again?  Will they then fail to beat the traffic?

 

Hell, this is getting messy!

Also, either have the on-field refs make decisions at the monitor themselves or shut the whole system down. No matter what improvements/rule changes might come in it will never work until that happens.

100% agree with that. 
By all means, have someone in the studio/back at HQ have a word about a potential missed incident, (just as a lino can), but it should be the one man in charge.  The one man making all and every decision, with or without any input from "his team" and/or a TV monitor!

Just catching up on PL highlights and the VAR decision in Burnley/Bournemouth is mind-boggling. 

You let them play on, the other team scores then you go back and give the penalty? Where does that end. If they play on but the ball doesn't go out of play for 10 minutes before they score do you just undo 10 minutes of football because one ref thought another ref missed a penalty?

ducking stupid.

That would take just as long to reach a decision.
Set a time limit to reach a verdict (20-30 secs) and set another limit for how far back you check before the goal (time, control of the ball switching to the other team, etc)

Very few decisions took longer than 30s to be made at the world cup. The VAR refs took a quick look and told the actual ref immediately to go over to the monitor (stopping play if necessary) and check the incident if they thought there was any potential doubt. The VAR refs didn't make a decision and then ask the actual ref to go look.

The only incidents that took a lot of time were ones where only one angle helped and the ref had to keep moving through the different camera shots.

That's how it should be used.
