You see if I was a Liverpool fan I would be annoyed with Bradley for that first yellow, absolute needless foul in the least thretening part of the pitch because he just wanted to give one to his opponant infront of the Everton fans. Oliver also had a clear view of the 'push' so if he thought...

I think maybe in Europe, that 'push' may of been intervened upon but in the PL, it has to be alot more obvious, whether that's right or wrong will split opinion but the fact it has not outraged the pundits(unlike that lewis skelly red card) from what I have seen suggests the VAR was right not to...

We all know that does not happen though all the time, only if the manager says something out of turn which no doubt Slot did and I guess it depends on Michael Olivers match report will depend if the touchline ban is just one game or not.

Dont see that as SPA personally, would of been a very soft second yellow if he did give a second yellow for that. Liverpool players complaining about the referee playing more time than they thought but it's down to the referee how much extra get added. I'm glad Slot got a red card if he said...

I thought he did well in a physical game by Everton which for the netrual made a match low on chances watchable. As for the possible foul at the end, I don't think there is much in it to be honest but the camera angles what we could see were not the best. I thought all his yellows were...

I'm not having the official guessed, he saw in his view the whole of the ball was over the line, I don't think it was but it was very tight and all happens so quickly so very little time to make the decision. Whilst it's potentially a game changing moment, I don't think it's a huge error...

I think the camera angle makes Maguire look more offside than he is, I think with VAR it would show offside but I don't think the gap is as big as it looks personally. We will never know sadly but if I was a Leicester fan, I be annoyed with the award of a free kick before hand, never a...

Regarding the potential foul before the build up, I wonder if it's harder to intervene on this because the West Ham player didn't have possession of the ball so it did not affect the APP. If Bowen had the ball at his feet and was fouled like that and it went to the keeper which started the move...

That's because they know his followers would be saying the same thing so don't want to be seen as defending the referee incase they themselves end up getting abused. Goldbridge is the same, can be knowledgeable talking about the game but when it comes to referees, then forget it because you know...

Bizzare section on the Sky Sports website where it says Arsenal will have to appeal the red card, I thought it would be an opinion piece by some young journalist but nope, just Sky telling us Arsenal have to appeal to get the red card overturned something which every single fan knows anyways...

That's because it did'nt involve a big 6 club. There's a handball incident in the Spurs v Newcastle game which was shown but if that incident happened in Brighton v Brentford, I doubt it would of got featured because let's face it, it wasn't that controversial. Likewise if Joao Pedro played for...

Obviously you have worked more in the profession but I don't believe there was any rumours of David Coote or any PL referee being gay in the public domain? The "interest" has always been in which player will come out as gay whilst playing with The Sun(most probably) click baiting they know one...

I would love to know where this nonsense VAR are frightened to overturn decisions made by Michael Oliver, what proof have people got? Oliver has been called to the screen several times before, a VAR called him over on a penalty he gave in a Ipswich game. It just feels an easy accusation to make...

A little surprised Dale thought it was more yellow than red. Especially when Howard Webb has said in the Fernandes one if he gone in with studs then a red card is the right decision and Lewis-Skelly definately goes in with studs so can't just be a trip can it? I do agree with him the hyperbole...

Well that was suggested via the blue card but so many people were against it that I doubt it will ever see use at PL level.

The difference was Fernandes challenge was his was with the side of the foot whilst Lewis-Skelly's challenge was with studs and above the ankle. Howard Webb said it himself, if it was with studs the red card would be 100% the right decision. Because of all the noise and it involves a big 6...

I have to admit I voted yellow card but the more I see it, I think it is a red. He's very late, and the studs do go in above the ankle. It does lack intensity mind but I do agree in that I think the criticism of the referee is over the top. No doubt because he's a young English player is adding...

The screen is there to sell the decision to the fans and for the referee to sell the decision to the players so he can explain it to them as he has seen it for himself. The PL(and the Bundesliga) did try to have the VAR make the decisions via the replays but it felt wrong a referee subjective on...

Have not seen the other posts the member has posted but I thought the question raised is a perfectly valid one? Does it matter if the Chelsea player deliberately ran into Brooks direction? Regardless whether it's natural or not, if Brooks take the bait and reacts, then he only got himself to...

To be fair, 12 review rejections since VAR came in 2019 is a pretty low enough number hence the comments of we all know what's likely going to happen here and what is the point of going to the screen when they always change their mind also tells you the perception a referee sticking with his...
