    TOT v LIV

    Thanks for clarifying 👍

    TOT v LIV

    Why did the AR put his flag up? I thought they have been told to wait? So the whole team have got that decision wrong, that’s really poor all round

    TOT v LIV

    Will be repercussion surely after the game

    TOT v LIV

    Very harsh first booking for Jota.

    TOT v LIV

    Don't think it was obvious at all. Really need to see the line drawn to confirm.

    Arsenal Vs Man Utd

    Absolutely, none of this mulling over the meaning of ‘clear & obvious’ nonsense. That needs to change to ‘not 100% sure about that, you should have another look and make a call’. That what I think the conversation was today, (probably helped the VAR was an Aussie, a bit more confident in giving...

    Arsenal Vs Man Utd

    Excellent use of VAR despite all of its recent problems. VAR had the balls to get the ref to have another look, and we wouldn't have all those problems over the past few weeks.

    Liverpool vs Aston Villa

    Watching the Liverpool game and I think Simon Hooper is one of the best referees in the Premier League. Absolutely no drama, good rapport with the players, great positioning. Was a real shame that he was hung out to dry because of the VAR error at Man Utd Wolves, but he installs a lot more...

    U18 drinks break

    Great decision, and I did it last season as I needed a break as well! But duty of care is important at ages, especially youth football

    Man City vs Fulham

    Again calls into question the dynamics of VAR. We should assume Tony Harrington applied what he thought was the LOTG, but was he swayed by talking to a very senior ref, or other factors. Howard Webb needs to address these issues pretty quickly imo, as I can only see these spiralling out of...

    Man City vs Fulham

    Amazed MOTD never showed this challenge on Wilson? Seemed worthy at least a bit of analysis? https://x.com/lewissffc1/status/1697980947851882989?s=46 Thought the whole debate on the offside was very protective of Michael Oliver, can’t just completely blame VAR for that?

    Man City vs Fulham

    I think Micahel Oliver and VAR were trying to be too clever with their interpretation of clearly attempting to play a ball which is close when this action impacts on an opponent or making an obvious action which clearly impacts on the ability of an opponent to play the ball He jumped over the...

    Man City vs Fulham

    Will wait for the full analysis on MOTD , where the screen will be bigger, but he motions towards the ball, and this seems to impact the Fulham keepers dive that seems to stutter. Other clips on Twitter showing Harry Wilson being pulled back by his neck to deny a DOGSO at 0-0. Should be some...

    Man City vs Fulham

    Really can’t see how the player isn’t deemed to be interfering here? VAR again under the spotlight. But really surprised the on-field team didn’t give it. https://x.com/hojlundpr/status/1697985856408047901?s=46

    Human error

    Park it and move on. You can watch MOTD and EFL highlights to realise that the top referees are not rational robotic machines that get every decision right. Sounds like the report was really positive.

    Newcastle v Liverpool

    Can 'whataboutery' all day long, but I think he was filmed using the F word and refused to leave the pitch, so banged to rights regarding this rule. I think Twitter is the place for 'what about'

    Newcastle v Liverpool

    Quite a few E3 charges last month on here https://www.thefa.com/news/2023/aug/04/fa-charges---july-2023-040823
