Just a reminder that we will have a separate EURO 2024 referee subforum. Working on standing that up, as well as a Copa one. So eventually...
Yeah, on merit, it's really hard to argue with the list. No Sanchez Martinez and no Frappart deny the two appointments that would have been the...
Youth League Final. Sharing not for the decision, but for the commentary. "Nothing he can do." https://www.streambug.io/cv/89e983
And I forgot this. It would make sense. Though the nature of this competition makes two UEFA referees quite a stretch, don't you think? In 2021...
What about Meler? Particularly given what he went through.
What a great call from Mendoza at 70' for the DOGSO-red penalty in LA. There's the slighest of touches on the leg, but it's a hold/pull all the...
I'd also add that Rizzoli is in charge of CONCACAF which means he has a role at Copa. Massa/Guida to Copa is starting to grow on me...
Maybe you just solved the Sanchez Martinez problem! I don't think Soares Dias would appreciate the appointment, but I could be wrong. And I also...
If you're assuming 18+1 and you've got 18 names... isn't there only 1 spot left in your mapping? For what it's worth, I think it's hard to...
Given Everton has a match in hand, one could easily argue today’s result was actually the best possible for Luton. I suppose the counterpoint is...
One questions if he ever had them.
I think it's pretty clear he uses his left hand to keep the ball out. But I still come to the same conclusion. If you piece all the available...
Ah. Thank you for stopping me before I embarrassed myself more! So, more or less everything I posted above can be disregarded. It's still very...
Correct. I say this will all sincerity--if you rejected this OFR in, say, MLS, you'd fail the match. And if you did this or something like it...
Right. I was just focused on your suggestion of major fines/suspension or points deduction. I'm saying the EPL really can't go that route...
Rumor is Wednesday.
But seriously, if per the PGMOL/FA's own regulations Attwell can't referee Luton, how is it suddenly fair that he can VAR them, where he is in...
Or Attwell could have, you know, said "no."
Not only that, but he's also bad at his job. So it's a double whammy. Look, Forest's tweet isn't the most savory thing. But the FA and PGMOL...
This sounds like a nice excuse, because you are correct that referees have been instructed to rehearse/script the announcement before leaving the...
But you kind of can't blame Oliver for that. I am very sure that Oliver gives that as a penalty if he's called for the OFR. How he is not called...
Where is the foul? It seems indisputable that the attacker's arms reach out to contact the keeper--if not for that arm extension, there is no...
HAHAHAHAHA. Wow.
An excellent decision? Restart was a dropped ball, right? I mean the only contact there is because the attacker puts his arms out toward the...
Because there's only something to review if a clear and obvious penalty was committed. I don't understand how you come in here pretty much daily...
