Perfect example of why getting the ball doesn't matter one little bit. Shame the referee misjudged it.

I had loads of these mistimed clearance tackles from lumpy centre halves who didn’t really care, man, ball, the lot... I fell out with a few that’s a fact.... but you can’t beat a good clean full blooded tackle, it puts bums on seats especially in the Championship.... not really allowed in the Prem!
Players in the Championship certainly do tackles that are frowned on in the Prem. Apart from Anthony Taylor we've had some refs that do allow a bit too... Their is a difference and you know it!1980's calling the 2010's - can we have our referee back please?
You are right. I should have been more specific, players think they can slightly nick the ball and are then justified to completely take the player out with no repercussions.That's not quite right--it does matter, just not the way some players think it does. Touching the ball, of course, is not a get out of jail free card. And it never turns a reckless (or EF) play into nothing. But, for example, a slide tackle that clears the ball and then has some contact is likely not a foul, whereas the same slide that doesn't get the ball would likely be a careless tackle or a tripping foul.
In other words, too many players (especially defenders!) think about it backwards--getting the ball is not determinative that there was not a foul, but failing to get the ball likely means there was a foul.
From the clip it looks like it's his second ever game and he's found a FIFA badge laying around. He obviously doesn't do himself justice in the clip and he has earned his way to FIFA but his body language doesn't look like an experienced referee at all.How on Earth has a FIFA referee not even given a free kick for that … ?!

Did he get decent Club marks in his first game??From the clip it looks like it's his second ever game and he's found a FIFA badge laying around.

That’s where stats can be skewed, there are more tackles of filth out of the Prem, just because card levels are similar it can mean that more are allowed but there are more of them. On the whole Prem teams are better behaved and SFP is rare..Not in my experience, I've seen just as many SFP cards in the Championship as in the PL, and probably even more at L1 and L2.

Rabbit in headlight decision (or lack of), all the gear but no idea!!! Bet he had a nice watch though and matching socks!!!
How on earth has he not sent him off? He was looking right at it from 8 yards. If you have any doubt (or spaced out at the time, or still thinking about the previous challenge), once you see the knee it's your queue to talk to your assistants and get some help from them to come to the right decision.How on Earth has a FIFA referee not even given a free kick for that … ?!
If this was in response to my post, I don't disagree with you. Your post is advice on how not to miss a foul. Mine is about how to recover after you miss one and its obvious you have. No matter how good you are you will end up missing some and not always due to angle (better ones miss fewer).maintain it looks different down barrel of gun to side on........
