I would get in contact with the Welsh FA - they will give you the best answer.

Having seen the side-on reply many times, he has a second grab (all part of the same foul) and I reckon that was on the line, so the penalty was probably correct, but red card for sure.

He (and his assistants) have had a great game up to Neur's collision. There is absolutely no way that Neur was fouled, and I think it should have been a penalty - if a player collides with somebody like that while making a header then it's a foul and a yellow or red card, so why should it be any...

How was that not a red card?????

Considering his last World Cup match was the final, I'm surprised that he hasn't got a bigger match.

Great penalty decision - so glad to see he have that, sends out a good message for the rest of the tournament. Did anyone else notice that the referee didn't wait for the ARs to leave the pitch together - he just headed straight off which is bad form. Never thought I'd say this but I love...

yes, I think in Europe the advice is to the contrary - on the front cover of the 2013-14 LOTG 2 ARs have furled flags!

yes, I saw that, thought it was peculiar. It also annoys me that foreign officials go against what we're told to do in this country and have there flags rolled up when they come out!

It would affect your match control because all the players as well as the fans know that you have made a big mistake and consequently you will lose credibility

What was that for?

Although not a live interview, Clatts spoke to the Sky pitchside reporter at the Stoke vs. Man Utd game in the Capital One Cup semi-final during the interruption for hail to explain why they had come off.

He just doesn't seem good enough to be doing the opening game.

Well, well well...

It is amazing just how well the paint works in terms of keeping the wall back - I want some!!

I assume that the appointments secretary knows that it will be your first game? They will make sure you get teams who are generally well behaved. Make sure you get a mentor out for the first one - I did that for mine last season and it was so much better knowing that there was someone there on...

Bjorn Kuipers, from Holland, will be refereeing England's first match. Does anybody know anything about him?

Yes. Neck lanyard looks ridiculous, clips look uncomfortable and it's difficult to hold whistle when starting watches, issuing cautions etc.

I think what we have now is perfect. GLT works for arguably the most important decisions, and, crucially, there is no delay to the game. In cricket DRS works because it's a natural break in play when it occurs but this would ruin the game. Also agree with @Matthew and @Joshua Brayshaw about...

Thoughts on the Neymar incident?

@Ross - how about having a 'World Cup' prefix for the 'as seen on TV' section?
