    Josh Smith Portsmouth v Oxford

    These tackles are the potential leg breakers. Endangered the safety of an opponent.

    Atletico v Barca VAR

    First one was actually a second yellow, given for a free kick. (according to the Spanish instagram ref) Very clear DOGSO in my book, the goalkeeper was stuck in concrete. Understandable miss in real time. Think we discussed recently that the VAR intervention doesn't actually add anything when...

    Hated AR

    Only an 11 match ban? Absolutely shocking. Cases are often taken less seriously when a game isn't abandoned.

    Atletico v Barca VAR

    VAR interventions in Spain are nearly double the interventions in the EPL.

    @ladbroke8745 How was this game not abandoned?

    Doncaster v Mansfield - Offside

    The image is that blurry I wouldn't be confident the kick point is right. Majority of assistants will go early in situations like this, you may think you don't but most do.

    Arsenal vs Chelsea UWCL

    @socal lurker This in Women's Champions League so UEFA jurisdiction. For VAR the clear and obvious criteria doesn't apply as it would come.under serious missed incident (if the VAR viewed it as a red card).

    Arsenal vs Chelsea UWCL

    We saw a few red cards and suddenly the referee community decided it was an automatic red card There are far more instances of it not being punished with a red card.

    Arsenal vs Chelsea UWCL

    Yet another hair pull not not being classed as violent conduct.

    Referee social media accounts.

    Referee Forum is now huge. The owner seems to be an Alexei Sayle knock-off with questionable views. Has started to use AI to create anonymous posts to drive content. The American one is quite frequently wrong in law but he's enthusiastic and a good communicator. Their are a few twitter...

    Red or just accident?

    Clear red for who?

    UEFA VAR reset

    Careful what you wish for. I get the impression that Rosetti regards handballs as factual not subjective. Nearly any ball hitting the hand in the build up to a goal will be chalked off, any time the arm stops a shot on goal it will be penalized.

    VAR allowable restart interventions

    Scratch that. After querying why a throw was different they've said they made a mistake and restarts, except penalties, can't be reviewed

    Brentford v Wolves

    At least two players made strong appeals

    Brentford v Wolves

    Clear backpass but too far back to intervene. Right non-intervention from VAR but for the wrong reason. The ball is passed out then goes back to the goalkeeper again

    Notts County boot!

    Thought he stopped play for a foul at first. More importantly, for this forum, where was the restart from, and did he signal IDFK?

    Notts County boot!

    Why isn't he stopping play when the offending team have position?

    Chelsea vs Newcastle

    Caution them one by one until they disperse. Cole Palmer looks to be on the spectrum and probably wouldn't even realise it's inappropriate.
