Ok, I was referring to where they do have a monitor such as in PL or CL games. If there's no other way to double check, then of course, you can't just go by what the player's claiming and I wasn't suggesting that. Ok, so where there's VAR, which is the scenario I was thinking of, then it's...

Sorry, I don't see where it's confusing. Not sure how to clarify it further.

ok cool. Now, let's consider the scenario where our hypothetical polite player happens to be right. Shouldn't the ref then change his mind, or at least review the incident on the monitor?

If a player comes up to the ref, politely disagrees and attempts to explain why the decision was wrong and hence change his mind, is that still an offense?

Not giving handball for a reflexive, defensive movement to prevent injury sounds sensible to me. @bester thanks for that quote, very helpful. 🙂 I've seen in the PL with VAR replays where it looks like a grey area regarding defensive / deliberate / arm in the wrong place etc where it can take...

Too right. Some great advice in this thread, too.

Oh agreed, I meant more generally. Introducing them next season sounds sensible. I have a feeling that cost might be a significant factor though.

Sounds like you could really do with a radio like they have in the pro games.

lol me neither.

Yer welcome, RR. You can actually add it in the styles / templates to the menu. I've done it on my forum in the Help section, for an example. This way you don't change the Terms and Rules link, but add another for Forum Rules like I've done (no limit to how many menu items you can add). When...

Loving these c-cup confessions. Keep 'em coming lads - the more potentially career ending the better! 😁

I see it's been handily moved to there now. 🙂 The second bit I dunno, but I see where you're coming from. I think subjectiveness is inherent in the game as things can so often be interpreted different ways, especially from different camera angles and realtime v slowmo.

As a new user here, I wanted to familiarise myself with the forum rules so that I don't accidentally put my foot in it. As a fellow forum owner running the same XenForo software, something jumped out at me when I looked for the forum rules. Clicking the Terms and Rules link at the bottom of...

I think the two penalties awarded to Chelsea in this match shouldn't have been given. To me, they just looked too soft and not clear and obvious to award such a stiff sanction. I'm sure I've seen worse incidents in other matches where there was shirt pulling and much more obvious pushing / shirt...

It sounds to me like this is the case. As we get older, the challenges of tasks and hobbies that we enjoy start to overwhelm them to the point where it's no longer enjoyable, becoming a significant stress point and it's time to move on. Being a ref is definitely not an easy task and I think the...

Yeah, I guess if one thinks of it that way, it makes sense.

Cool, what's your opinion on the corner flag case?

I'm a regular guy who watches Premiere League, Champions League, plus a bit of Serie A football and have an interest in the finer points* of the Laws and reffing decisions. I came across this site while looking up a reffing decision while watching a match. It looks great and I like the XenForo...
