So a referee stopped one team not both taking a quick free kick not in a shooting position three times

So if the refs whistle isn't needed on most free kicks (generally needed when a team organisers a wall) why wasn't he allowed to carry on

I actually thought Darren England had a good 75 mins or so but last 15 was baffling. He stopped Everton taking three quick free kicks , don't think he was talking to another player at any time but camera angle might show different. The question i ask is, Dewsbury Hall was shown a yellow card...

This law is getting more and more and confusing. We now have challenging an opponent to throw into the mix as well. Last two years easy red. Is it now at the stage were you're not giving any red card for dogso as well as a penalty unless its handball or someone has been dragged, push or...

Yeah just seen the Gary Neville clip from last night. It gives 5 bullet points and this incident probably doesn't tick four of the boxes, the only one that saves him is the fact he's stretching. I know personal opinion shouldn't come into it but i find that the wrong decision.

Too many doubts to go red here. The ball might well run behind, is it a 3g pitch so the ball will roll quicker. Agree about the lines though, very confusing.

What does the law say now about a deliberate play ? Surely if someone is stretching and making an attempt to play the ball thats deliberate.

Penalty or not ?

Not a penalty on Cavani, the one on Nunez more a penalty. No wonder there is a lack of referees and a lack of respect when you're getting scenes like that after the full time whistle. The ref was very strong there but should have stood his ground and anyone approaching just issue with cards

While this is true surely from the original pass (not to him) hes gaining an advantage by being in the position hes in.

Regarding the Ath Madrid incident. I get the final whistle had gone and VAR advised a penalty, surely if the game had finished should the penalty kick be the last action or is it until the ball is completely dead, i was under the impression once the penalty is taken thats the end of the game.

Sorry not seen the Madrid drama yet.

Which handball, they haven't given handball if we are talking about Spurs here. I just cant see how they've given offside here.

Im not 100% sure i did, i emailed my league to give them a report of the incident but cant be sure if i submitted an extraordinary report.

About 4-5 weeks ago i gave an U13s manager two yellow cards in a game. This week ive got a hearing via zoom (or similar) He is disputing the charge. Is there anything i should be doing in preparation, ive got notes from the day and im a bit nervous about it but does anyone have any tips or...
