    Uriah Rennie

    Just read the more recent articles. To say he was an impressive individual would be an understatement.

    Ref of the Year Interfering With Div 6

    Free coffee? Smells like corruption to me. I'm off to social media to kick up a stink!

    We'll that's at least 8 seconds of CPD guaranteed!

    Get your Countdown clock sound effects ready! Has official guidance been given yet on what the 8 seconds and counting for the last 5 should look like?

    Decision on challenge - how would you have handled this?

    But no actual contact. The opponent withdraws for fear of injury. Doesn't that make it IDFK? Like a high boot where the player pulls their head away, IDFK.

    Players constant moaning

    I absolutely abhor seeing the left back turning and giving the AR a volley of abuse. I'd want to see that controlled more.

    Hackett vs Hooper

    Arguably he has managed it by giving a yellow. Isn't delaying the restart of the opposition a red card?

    Player refuse to take out jewelry

    I'd ask them to leave to remove the jewellery. If they don't then I would issue C2 (Sin Bin) for not following my instruction. That would give them 10mins to sort out the jewellery. I would then not allow them back on the fop until they removed the jewellery or they risk returning and getting...

    Palace v Man City FAC

    From the strikers I had in my game yesterday, I'd have no idea if they had a strong foot. At best they had 2 (or too) weak feet!

    Prayers up for Taiwo Awoniyi

    If you read the comments on BBC Sport (and I reckon it's a more balanced forum than Twitter) there is mainly support for the AR and the discussion is about the protocol rather than the person.

    Players Shorts Too Low

    What if they were going commando and were flying at half mast?

    Notts Co vs Wimbledon

    If you have a read through twitter, it's not as clear cut. Shouldn't have been a card at all! Ref has had a mare. 🤯

    Leyton Orient vs Stockport

    I absolutely agree. Don't get me wrong, it was a howler, but this angle shows what a challenge this role is.

    Leyton Orient vs Stockport

    I think this shows it was actually a much harder call to make. 2 players moving in 2 directions and a blue defender relatively deep in the line in the middle.

    Real Madrid TV Post New Ref Video

    How the hell are they allowed to get away with this?
