    Spain-Argentina

    I read that he was once detained by police at a party of prostitution and drugs. He claims wrong place wrong time. No formal charges were done and released. He did do the champions league final in 2024 between Madrid and Dortmund and a Europa League final too. He had recent "issues" with...

    England v Argentina

    Pathetic that Argentina are trying to get Kane off for covering mouth whilst talking to the ref!!!

    England v Argentina

    I did not like the antics by any player at half time around the ref even if it was probably needed to air frustrations.. But especially don't like telling everyone (even ushering Bellingham away) but inviting Messi to stay for a nice cosy chat.

    England v Argentina

    Thats now 9 fouls against Argentina.. Then eventually card comes and its for us (ironically, I dont disagree with it but based on the game so far, why?)..

    England v Argentina

    Simeone has been penalised for 4/5 fouls now. When does persistent come in to it? And thats just the ones the ref has actually blown for.

    France - Spain

    Surprised, yes. Purely because the one training thing ive had, and one thing refs tell assistants in pre match is not to get involved if they're virtually on top and AR is miles (not literally, obviously) away. If they're undermining from distance a referee from a couple of yards... good job its...

    France - Spain

    Keeper gone down twice with barely a touch on him. That free kick in last minute of 90 for France was extremely close to being on the penalty box line and potential penalty. Barely looked at based on speed of kick taken.

    France - Spain

    Have to laugh at Matterface claiming ref had enough of waiting for the obvious offside so blew before AR flagged... Er, they could have talked before via comms and ref blew when ready (attack stopped etc)..

    France - Spain

    I really am getting more and more confused with VAR... What/how they getting involved with that free kick given to France that should not have been given anyway. No card was issued so its not a case of their favourite tagline "mistaken identity".

    Norway Vs England

    This wiregate saga... Surely all cameras are recording at the same time, including the spidercam. Why dont they just show that image and see if the camera "rocks". Surely any outside knock would make the camera wobble momentarily.

    The future of refereeing

    I get that. Some refs will have thick skin to defeat the moaners but will these also have the skill? Its a hard balance and potentially a smaller pool going forward and more and more scrutiny in the pro game will lead to more youngsters thinking not for them. That last paragraph is all good...

    The future of refereeing

    Has this world cup made potential referees think to not take it up? Every game people are criticising officials and VAR. Every game even players and management are criticising officials. I get its been happening for years but for some reason I just think its got far, far, worse this summer...

    Argentina v Switzerland

    Can i ask why they seem to be ignoring this law when it comes to cautions? I get emotions etc but you should not replace laws because of it. Now the reason why I highlighted this is because L. Martinez was already on a caution when, after scoring the third goal, ran to the crowd and more or...

    Norway Vs England

    I like to compare this Spence incident to what most full backs do when running towards their own corner flag and an attacker chasing them down. They deliberately get in between ball and player and fall over at the slightest of touches to win a cheap free kick. In a lot of cases its just a case...

    Some theories ive read about Snikometer thing is that it may not work as well when booted high.
