    FA Cup Appointment

    Fourth official for the 4th qualifying round was £103 last season? When I did it in 21-22 it was £50 😭 The fees for the Extra Prelim, Prelim and 1Q rounds were the same as the fee for Steps 3 and 4 - Step 3 has now gone up to 90/60/60 and Step 4 is now 80/60/60, so I'd assume it will be...

    Northampton Town Vs Coventry City

    Should've put the tw*t on his arse. Clearly had been issues with players in the way already, hence the comments coming from the spectators. There's no way warnings weren't already given, and clearly weren't heeded.

    England v Argentina

    The referees retained after the QFs were: Alireza Faghani Adham Makhadmeh Jalal Jayed Ivan Barton Ismail Elfath Jesús Valenzuela Wilton Sampaio Espen Eskås Szymon Marciniak Maurizio Mariani Glenn Nyberg João Pinheiro Slavko Vinčić I think it's probably safe to assume those who were appointed to...

    England v Argentina

    That would be unlikely, given that they've all gone home.

    England v Argentina

    In that case he doesn't need to go off, no?

    England v Argentina

    It's been coming - we've been too defensive since scoring. Couple of decent saves by Pickford, and one where they hit and post and should've scored.

    Either back up your assertions with evidence, or stop talking rubbish 🤷‍♂️

    France - Spain

    Because it's not deliberate handling, nor is the arm in a position where it is making him unnaturally bigger.

    US v Bosnia

    I can see plenty of statements about the Tango manbaby, can't see any I would describe as ridiculous though.

    Sitting out Pre season games

    3 out of 8 seasons I had an observer on my first middle of the season.

    Mex v Eng

    It does seem to be rather pot luck with VAR involvement so far - some obvious mistakes not reviewed and some not obvious ones reviewed, and some goals disallowed due to reviewing 'soft' fouls in the build-up (and not to mention Faghani inexplicably sticking with his on-field decision after going...

    Mex v Eng

    Kane kicks the Mexican player's foot and gets no contact on the ball whatsoever - it's quite definitely a foul. Slightly more arguable whether it's C&O, but if Faghani didn't give the foul on-field because he thought Kane had played the ball, VAR can see that he very obviously didn't, so I think...

    Mex v Eng

    Rice misses the ball and makes contact with his studs at above waist height - that's nearly always going to be a caution regardless IMO.
