The Referee Store
Clear pen
and not even up for debate, onside.


Edit never realised there was a part 3.....red card

It is i know but it just looks so wrong (the offside that is) but i know its the right call from the referee, defender is better off just leaving the ball.
 
Penalty is correct but I think without VAR I wouldn't blame the referee if he said no and went for simulation, because the way he falls (dives) is ridiculous. With VAR it is pretty clear there's contact and I think it is enough for the penalty, just... that fall seems manufactured.

Offside, I'm guessing deliberate play so not offside.

Last one I'm going red, lunge, straight leg, so I'm disagreeing with VAR on that one.
 
Pen. No pen is a C&O error and VAR should recommend a review
Onside as it is taught these days but I don't like it. I want this to be offside.
Red for me but yellow is not a C&O error so I don't expect the VAR to recommend a review.
 
Think all agree the second one is given as onside but you would get pelters for that on a Saturday afternoon despite getting it right.
 
1. No pen for me, too little contact, and as been said the fall looks unnatural
2. Onside, delibrate play by the defender
3. Yc is IMO supportable as the contact is minimal, but I would be ok with red as well.
 
1. Corner kick.
2. Onside by law, would prefer law to say this is off though.
3. I don't think a caution or send-off is particularly wrong. Only wrong option here is no card.

Is there a scale of contact which we use? Little, some, a bit, lots of...there is (foul) contact, therefore its a foul

Egg. We get a hard egg and a soft egg. Both are eggs.

No doubts he milks it but that does not take away from the foul

One of those we want to give a pk and also a yc to the striker? I would def be saying to striker, look dont need you adding your partypiece to the foul
