    Brentford v Wolves

    No appeal from Brentford players which probably sowed doubt it was a kick to the GK It was stated that consultations with football stakeholders suggested that football would expect that only the phase of play leading up to a goal/penalty incident/DOGSO should be reviewed i.e. from the point at...

    Keeper Injury/Tactic Talk

    My solution to this is Roll on Roll off sub for goalkeeper injuries at the highest level. If the GK can walk out to the edge of the penalty area he can walk off behind the goal and get replaced immediately. Genuine contact injuries can be treated as normal. Also a lot of injuries could be...

    ARS vs CHE

    In one incident in the game Rice is not even looking at the ball yet arms around his opponent with his back to the ball. The one where he elbows the ball was an easy penalty. Arm above his head around the opponent’s neck. Howard Webb said at the start of the season that Premier League referees...

    Maguire Cheating

    Also he is not the captain. After the penalty award he should not be in the referee’s face looking for sanction. Players need to respect Only the Captain.

    Atalanta v Dortmund

    I believe a red card was the only option. The player’s safety was endangered and he got three to four bad cuts on his forehead from studs. He could have lost an eye from that raised boot.

    Foul Throw – How strictly do you call it?

    Three things for me. If it’s very obvious then call it Be consistent throughout Don’t sweat the small stuff. The video shown is very obvious a foul throw with a clearly raised leg right in front of the TA. I would call that. . Too obvious to ignore.

    City v Newcastle

    When is a push not a push. On the Kolo Muani's goal that was disallowed for a push on Gabriel by comparison and using that bar this was without doubt a push. The game has now got itself into a right mess with determining legality. The amount of serious pushing, holding grappling now at set...

    City v Newcastle

    Law 11 is clear on this “a player in an offside position is moving towards the ball with the intention of playing the ball and is fouled before playing or attempting to play the ball, or challenging an opponent for the ball, the foul is penalised as it has occurred before the offside offence”...

    City v Newcastle

    Only possible decision is to disallow the goal. Dias could be cautioned for USB yet that happened before the ball was put into play. No possible retake unless the referee tried to stop the free kick from being taken which did not happen. I even think Burns was in an offside position before the...

    Wolves v Arsenal

    Time wasting is the bane of the modern game at all levels. Teams know that most referees are not going to caution / dismiss players easily for it hence it continues. The simple solution in my opinion is to turn the restart over in tardy situations. If a team is tardy say taking a throw in it...

    Bristol City v Wrexham

    Not offside in my opinion. Meets none of the 4 interfering with an opponent conditions By: • preventing an opponent from playing or being able to play the ball by clearly obstructing the opponent’s line of vision or • challenging an opponent for the ball or By clearly attempting to play a ball...

    Rochdale Vs Scunthorpe

    The only way an IDFK can be awarded here is with a caution. The *may be cautioned* is in respect of no kick yet thats a retake* situation. Simple solution. Caution for kicker and tell the defending team the ball was never in play hence it’s a *retake* If the referee said I cautioned for...

    IFAB says advantage can be played from incorrectly taken throw-in?

    The Law always stated ** If the throw-in is not taken in line with the correct procedure, it shall be retaken by the opposing team.** The old Q&As stated ** After an incorrectly taken throw-in, the ball goes directly to an opponent. Is play allowed to continue by applying the advantage clause...

    GK Fouls Attacker

    hi Two considerations here 1. Description say “wipes her out” which suggests a reckless challenge which is a caution even if advantage is played 2. As it was a potential DOGSO you are correct that it would have been a penalty kick and a caution had play been stopped. It makes little equity that...

    POAK v Borac BangaLuka

    https://streamin.me/v/4fa2e735 Anyone giving a penalty and a caution here on the defender for deliberate handling?

    Quick Free Kick Rule

    The error of giving it the wrong way was the issue really. Now the easy part is that the advice is that the free kick is on the whistle after the caution. It is not required in law or part of Law13 yet it is good practice and advice for it to be on the whistle. So that is the reason you did not...

    Arsenal v Bayern

    On the handling incident we have seen incidents like this punished. Double touch in Italy by a goalkeeper resulted in a DOGSO red card. Ball kicked put into play towards a team mate who ignored it and then the goalkeeper plays it again. Anyway I get the spirit of the no call here yet if Tuchels...

    Backpasses

    **For me, a GK can roll the ball out to a team mate who then controls it, realises there's danger, gets a shout from his GK to "Leave" who can then pounce on the ball and no offence has taken place since the ball wasn't deliberately kicked** That is an offence every single time. The control...

    Backpasses

    Agreed. The question though is what is a deliberate kick and direction. Direction of the kick is not in the law so it can be in any direction as mentioned by Rusty Ref who was 100% correct and the ball is kicked when a player makes contact with it with the foot and/or the ankle. Foot control of...
