@RustyRef True. Watching Serie A in the 1990s you'd see 5 players being bear hugged at every set piece. 'Theres a lot going on' used to be the excuse given, with VAR that's no longer there

You have to feel for the throw-in coaches. They'll have a really strong case at CAS 🤣🤣🤣

You can grab someone round the net and it's not even a foul but pulling their hair accidentally is a red card. Make it, make sense!

This is worse than the infamous Rivaldo incident

Did the lino flag? Referee has possibly smelt something is wrong with the reaction, and possibly been given a buzz from his assistant. Don't cover your mouth, never a good look.

Glad IFAB have taken some of my suggestions on board, just need to sort out the goalkeeper going down issue. Admittedly 5 seconds does seem short at grassroots, presumably brought in with only multi ball in mind. Let's see how it goes; there was a lot of moaning about the goalkeeper 8 second...

He moves his right leg out to widen his base so he can land safely after being nudged off balance. If he drops straight down he'd likely do his own ankle.

Less pitches running by this stage so it allows them squeak out full value from the £40 they pay for 8 hours.

It's probably not a foul throw. His foot comes up, noticeably, after he's released it

Players and coaches have started brazenly shouting hold your head.

Much made about whether it was inside or outside - no idea why - but it looks like DOGSO to me. Just about to shoot from 20-yards out. The goalkeeper isn't exactly filling the goal

No, because the goalkeeper goes down instead which this won't touch IFAB 20 years behind again.

@JamesL Assessment days are a way round the criteria. The 10 game sand 4 o s still applies for automatic promotions afaik which are few and far between now

IFAB to propose that players to stay off for 1-minute after treatment, FIFA wanted 2-minutes but too much push back. Nothing on goalkeepers.

The failure rate for such basic technology is very high, it's certainly not uncommon to hear of failures. User error?

Drop throw-ins q&a... the reasoning given is that it didn't come from behind the head. https://refchat.co.uk/threads/drop-throw-in.25739/

There are plenty of bald refs but fairly sure it's this game.
