Interesting that the Assistant didn't flag it.

Having watched all the constant replays on TV whilst VAR were reviewing it, I came to the opinion that it was as close to level as I've ever seen on a review, does the system allow for level (Onside), or does it have to differentiate between onside or offside and produce the lines accordingly?

It would be good if 'discipline' could be extended to the behaviour of substitutes who all run onto the field of play to give their goalscorer a kiss and cuddle when they run towards the corner flag followed by most of the team then take forever to return to their own half for the restart, find it a bit pathetic but then again it's part of the showbiz called Professional football I suppose, bah humbug

Think she refereed to the standard of the game which was poor, players running round like headless chickens with poor passing and control, definitely not what you would expect from an 'international' fixture, prime time Friday evening viewing?, don't think it warranted it.

General Discussion / UNICEF CHARITY GAME« on: Sun 09 Jun 2024 19:58 »
Yes it's a bit of fun for a good cause, but really, officials allowing players to participate with gold chains, ear rings etc, suprised they didn't allow so called celebrities to use phones for selfies as well

Reminds me of a game I refereed in 2001 between a Nottingham Forest XI and a local amateur side who were unveiling their new floodlights. As it was a 'friendly' fixture I joined in the spirit and presented both skippers with a Jaffa cake instead of a coin and said "Chocolate or sponge to decide kick off, whoever guess's right also gets to eat it". The Forest skipper (Alan Rogers) guessed correctly and when I gave it to him to eat said. "I can't eat that, if the trainer finds out i'll be for it" - so waste not want not I swallowed it.
I'd probably be disciplined nowadays and made to undertake 'healthy lifestyle' training
