    Spain-Argentina

    Why is VAR not interested? Don't see any foul in there and Vincic blew after the ball went in the goal.

    Spain-Argentina

    Most obvious second caution ever, at least that was given!

    Messi runs into Laporte and gets himself a free kick.

    Fa cup

    This round includes Step 5 and some Step 4 clubs. In your region Beverley, Bottesford, Grimsby Borough, North Ferriby and Tadcaster have home fixtures, but Barton, Bridlington and Pickering are away. You should get an email from MOAS if you are appointed, similar to if you have been appointed...

    Norway Vs England

    I also see no conclusive evidence of ball touching cable. Wind gusts could have done similar at that height due to the design of the stadium.

    Argentina v Switzerland

    There is no material released by IFAB to suggest that simulation can be penalised using VAR in this manner. I also agree it does not make sense that the decision to penalise the player committing simulation depends on a card having been incorrectly issued, further evidence that this is not...

    Spain v Austria

    England Vs DR Congo

    There's a lot of politics behind these things. If you shorten too much then you can upset the other country who might take it the wrong way and think you aren't properly recognising their existence!

    England Vs DR Congo

    It's referred to as DR Congo because there are two nations, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and the Republic of the Congo.

    England Vs DR Congo

    The problem is Kane has given the VAR a get out to say it's not obvious because it's not a natural fall. It should have definitely been a penalty though. And the ref making a simulation gesture and not cautioning Kane is very weak.

    IFAB changes for 26-27

    Discussed on page 2, and yes on the face of it this means if the ball accidentally rebounds e.g. from the post back onto the penalty taker then enters the goal a goal is awarded although I am sure that is not IFAB's intent and very unlikely to occur!

    I mainly find astros useful for situations when a grass pitch is shall we say rather hard.

    THE FA NO LONGER PROVIDING FREE KIT FOR LEVEL 2, 3 OR 4s

    So The FA gets over £30 million a year from Nike, can't spare us a few shirts, yet 'expects' us to advertise Nike for them.

    Registration 2026/27

    Referees are paid fees, not expenses only. Any referees grossing over £1000 are required to declare the income to HMRC. No that is not what it means. The term used is receiving 'any payment' beyond that. So all your matches would have to be on an expenses-only basis to qualify for the free check.
