The caves of Leeds have got the internet and electricity and the inhabitants have found my tweets about Bogle
I think this weekend we have at least 9 separate (nine) referee & VAR issues.
Some are subjective, some are clearly wrong and some show that having VAR is just a massive net negative on the game.
How many do fans think the ref/var got right? As defined by the laws of the game?
Suzuki chokes, as he puts the brakes on a Villa win.
A crash course in exhausting errors, as Carrick accelerates to the break.
No spark left for Villa, as their midfield engine dies.
Something odd on @FA website re law 12

Using excessive force is when a player exceeds the necessary use of force and endangers the safety of an opponent and must be sent off

why are they different?
Anything on the no card, injured the player, 4 min VAR, new verbiage from "pro" ref Bogle bungle?
Confusion, comparisons and... clarity?
The Kai Havertz penalty claim for Arsenal had many scratching their heads.
Was it offside? Or a spot-kick?
A look at the pros and cons, and why the referee and the VAR ultimately went with offside.

Should we invest more in refs?
🤑 Financial rules are meant to favour wealthy clubs - but as Tottenham and Man Utd are showing, all that money isn’t much use if you spend it badly.

You said the opposite, in writing and publicly here

PGMOL expects fouls of this nature to result in a red card, with the full point of contact from the studs above the ankle from behind
#LEETOT - 34’
The referee’s call of no red card to Bogle for the challenge on Tel was checked and confirmed by VAR.
VAR: “I'm confirming the on-field decision of no red card. There’s a lack of speed going into the challenge and he’s stepping into the tackle. Confirming a reckless challenge”.
Should also add, he was VAR when he cancelled our goal vs West Ham as the keeper was impeded by a defender
Hold on
Though holding was allowed
#ARSHUL – 42’
VAR recommended an on-field review for a potential penalty to Arsenal for a challenge by Mendy on Havertz - but determined that Havertz was in an offside position in the build-up.
REF: “After review, there is a holding offence by Blue No.32 on Red No.29. However, Red No.29 is in an offside position, so the final decision will be a free-kick for offside to Hull City”.
Hi Dale
Are you okay?
Seem to have missed your tweets about the potential red card?
About as late as Bogle
The top of the arm is not handball, and hasn't been for around eight years or so.
Absolutely not a penalty.
