    Ref halts game for 10 mins for spectator abuse to assistant

    Horrendous position to be in. Completely understand why the vast majority of people would ignore the comment. But we only have ourselves to blame. Abuse is abuse. Regardless of whether its mild or harsh. Probably reflects society pretty accurately as well. Interestingly............. if someone...

    How to get into academy football in Liverpool?

    RDO is your main point of contact. For the most part, the officials should get to go to the academies are the ones on the promotion pathway. If they’re short, they may look to send others.

    Changed drop ball law … devil in the detail

    Is 'hits the referee in the penalty area' a euphamism?

    Centre Circle

    Love it @blackref I’ve never used the app, but sounds poo poo

    Fair challenge?

    Pen for me. Do wonder if the seemingly lack of appeals from the players has almost conned the referee into not giving a penalty

    Palace VC

    Think this is an example where Tarkowskis honesty has saved the Palace player. Had he gone to ground and rolled around, I think there’s a different outcome.

    Women's FA Cup - sin bins?

    Although proves a point mentioned before; FA are poor at offering such guidance. There should be 0 confusion for such matters

    Women's FA Cup - sin bins?

    Congrats on the appointment! You should have been sent competition rules; have you not got them?

    Celtic vs Braga

    source:%20Reddithttps://share.google/IladL5Ah0TPqODnOL Looking at above video on Reddit, I think it’s the AR that alerts the referee to handball. This is also backed by Bobby Madden is a post he put online. But, I can’t hear a whistle from the onfield referee to disallow the goal.

    Celtic vs Braga

    Unless there is an angle we don’t see (which is scandalous if it’s the case) I don’t understand what further evidence they need.

    Three penalties missed

    I know I know. But it’s hard to criticise non-referees wording/misunderstanding of law when we see the waffle their own X accounts put out

    Three penalties missed

    Historically I’d agree with you. But when you see the level of explanations we’ve had from PGMOL & Webb recently (granted this game isn’t PGMOL) it’s hard to bemoan commentators lack of wording or knowledge.

    Celtic vs Braga

    Disallowed goal on 3:15. Unless there’s an angle we don’t see, that is a shambles.

    Consistency of tolerance in EPL

    Show me evidence of this. I'd love to see the part in which you're asked to ignore clear as day dissent. I'd also love to see the bit in which following law would slow down a referees career- would Howard Webb come out and say this? Not once in my refereeing career at any level was I given such...

    Consistency of tolerance in EPL

    It’s fine. Yourself & Rusty are correct as usual. Ignoring law is wholly acceptable and correct, and those on here will justify it when it it suits. I have to be careful with what I say. Otherwise the mods will get their knickers in a twist and ban me again.

    Consistency of tolerance in EPL

    So clubs can influence referees to ignore clear dissent? What a load of old tosh. If 10 clubs say they want one thing and 10 clubs say another, what happens then? Who exactly benefits from officials ignoring law? I’m sure Arsenal would have appreciated the Newcastle player being sent off, and...

    Consistency of tolerance in EPL

    There is advice that says ignore extremely obvious dissent if it leads to a second caution? I know I’m unlikely to see it in England, yes. Why? Because we seem to just be making a lot of stuff up as we go along at the moment. Much to the detriment of the game. They don’t know when VAR should...

    Consistency of tolerance in EPL

    Says who? Who are these people high up that we need to pander to? It’s one thing to ignore verbal offinabus/dissent as they did in the game the other week, as they can justify it (as people did here) as ‘barely anyone will have seen/heard it’, but physical dissent as obvious as this cannot be...
