    Huddersfield vs Luton - Hair Pulling

    There were far more hair pulls that weren't given as reds before the recent glut of red cards. Perhaps a consequence of football laws being 'reinterpreted' to suit the use of VAR The law hasn't changed. I'm not comfortable with the use of more than negligible force being used as a determining...

    Level of Referee

    There's plenty of level 5s who make it very clear they don't want to go bench side, and may cause issues if you make them. Whereas newer refs are often very keen to go bench side. Most times on MOAS AR1 will just be the first appointed.

    Man Utd vs Man City

    Playing in a dangerous play is predicated on the player being offended against being able to mitigate the risk. The law requires SFP to be a tackle or challenge which is a DFK offence.

    AFCON Final

    AFCON is AFCON. Palms will be greased and things will move on. The manager will probably be offered a harem and have a statue built. If Senegal do sacrifice him to placate things, he will back at the next AFCON with a different country.
