Assuming no or minimal contact as it appears on the video that’s no foul probably but a talking to when I can to just say cool it and take more care.

This is bloody awful mate! Glad you felt able to pick up the game after and hope it was a bit of a pallet cleanser

Pretty stupid because they’d probably face forfeiting the game or even points deductions for repeat offences

Uniteds third goal - shirt pull on Rutter. Obviously he does that annoying fake trip nonsense we see for upper body contact but you cannot say that pull hasn’t impacted him and stopped him challenging for the ball. If I see that much of a ‘triangle’ on a shirt pull and that impact I’m giving...

Hey there’s still time! I know some 2nd round games had 4W on the line!

More of a humble brag than anything else but got my first ever middle on a Women’s FA Cup proper round game! It’s been a goal of mine for years and I wasn’t expecting it this season, it’s the highest ranked side v the lowest ranked side in the draw so will be an interesting game.

I'm sick of the handball law, I feel like maybe I need a CPD on application of it, so many different interpretations out there!

Yes in certain quarters but not over the whole period and certainly not in the football sector outside of pro players! Don’t let a few private sector outliers and public sector strike won pay deals hide the reality the FA are facing.

I'd say they don't know, in that moment, that a sub is going to be made so the intent to delay is there?

But inflation has been well over wage rises, and I imagine any rises in revenue for the FA, since!

In football terms that's peanuts. To fund all their activities and then provide money to the tens of CFA's? Remember we've had 4/5 years of record inflation

As someone who doesn’t work in IT I find the issue is usually UFE - user f,ing error

I’d just tell them - especially at that age where you can be educating them. No different to reminding a player to throw the ball from behind their head or keep their hands down at set pieces

Was it DOSGO or reckless? If not then no need for a yellow I don't think? SPA would be downgraded iirc?

Also my preferred would be to educate in the moment - I'm more asking what should be done - for example if another official was in the car and reported it, would I be on the hook with the CFA for effectively ignoring it
