@JoGraham73 @Yorkshire_Steve @untypicalboro Which could be discriminatory and a reportable offence.

@Yorkshire_Steve @untypicalboro I’m hearing that he was taking the piss out of his stammer ..

@untypicalboro almost certainly Ayling has made an accusation of racist or homophobic abuse. If the ref doesn't hear it then he needs to alert both managers and then the FA investigate afterwards.

@refsupportuk United fans crying about consistency is laughable considering the “unconscious bias” they benefited from during SAF reign. Now the officials are better, fitter and the laws are more defined, they have to play on the same level playing field, they’re just babies. Just big babies.

You should change your name to “ Ben talks Shixe

@Malum_Tucee @Real1_balogun No it’s called game management.

@Real1_balogun This being overly familiar with players and staff is why they ref players differently, even obvious decisions get overlooked because "oh it's ...." He'd never do that on purpose, it's okay to humanise the officials but they are officials for a reason, zero consistency.

When I watch Refcam, I respect referees more. The instantaneous nature of those decisions can be pressuring. They must be smart people too. The good ones. In this Refcam I’m watching, Sam Barrott who officiated the Spurs vs Aston Villa game has called Richarlison ‘Richy’, Rogers ‘Morgan’ and Gallagher ’Conor’. That shows that he’s warmed up to them. He told De Zerbi “good to see you” probably because he’s been away from the league. He told Leon Bailey the same because he’s not been around too. He was recalled from Roma in January. Chris Kavanagh in Everton vs Liverpool. He calls a foul and Tarkowski keeps nagging. He asked him “are you going to take the whistle when you retire or what?”😂😂😂 He told Salah, “Pleasure Mo” and Salah responds, “if I don’t see you again, it’s a pleasure”. Paul Tierney — Arsenal vs Bournemouth. When he called the penalty, he told the Bournemouth player, “I know it’s a short distance but your hand and arm are really high”. James Hill had his foot on the 18-box before Gyokeres’, he shouted “stay out ‘Hilly’, Hilly stay out”. Take note of ‘Hilly’. It’s friendly and almost interpersonal. Those clips give a different feel of what it is to be in their position.

So, baseball and softball have received c£1.5m over 15 years from @Sport_England with tens of thousands of players whereas futsal, with hundreds of thousands of players, has received zero from both the @FA and @Sport_England although Sport England will also admit that @FA have never asked for any funding for futsal. More unacceptable suppression from The FA and more unacceptable tolerance from Sport England. @BBCSport @TeleFootball @UEFAFutsal @Futsal_Focus

@retiredman18 @HACKETTREF Play on, what offence has been committed?

@HACKETTREF So if a player miss kicks the ball in the penalty area and it’s going into the goal but it hits a teammate on the line ,where does that stand ?

Spot on explanation Mark - that’s why you were a top referee like by every club in the Premier League.

@ReelHammerz Or just a different interpretation of a subjective decision to yours?

VAR saying this isn’t a penalty because the Brentford player slipped Match fixing

@AVFCChattin @refsupportuk What’s worse is that if I remember the referee didn’t even give a foul. Not the greatest performance from the referee, allowed far too much WWE but we’ve all had poor games. Just because he’s got UEFA on his shirt doesn’t mean he’s exempt from them.

@refsupportuk I’m sorry mate, I’m here to defend refs on the whole but I’m genuinely not sure how that isn’t looked at last night, it is so obvious I have sympathy for refs who can miss things in the speed of the game but someone in VAR, to wave that on, is horrendous

Every country thinks they should use “Foreign Refs” In European games, they still are not happy. The problem is that clubs and fans around the world are never happy unless every decision goes their way. It’s embarrassing to see and they never read the room. 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

@rumanuu @henrywinter Don’t think Simeone is any stranger to controversy

@henrywinter White has a bit of history of being a bit of a twat though hasn’t he?

Ben White clearly made an innocent mistake when walking across the Atletico Madrid crest. He's not showing a lack of respect. He’s caught up in the emotion of the occasion. Simeone father and especially son were unimpressed… #AFC 1/2

@Refsplaining A letter written by biased fans doesn’t make things “factual”. Until fans remove emotions and then look at decisions in isolation, the nonsensical bleating, moaning and whining will never stop.

There have been five refereeing errors in Everton matches according to the PL’s independent panel, which comprises four ex-players and one ref. Everton benefited from four, against Wolves (a), Villa (a), Arsenal (a) and Chelsea (h) 1/2

@refsupportuk Coach told me that his players were allowed to wear earrings if they taped it up (player was unable to remove the earrings), how he’s done the Referee course and knows the rules. I told him he’d know what I was cautioning him for as this was clear dissent 😀

Dear refs. Please remember the vast majority of players and manager don’t know the laws of the game they play. They know how to kick a ball and that’s it. That’s the problem.

@Malinia83 @refsupportuk Because it wasn’t dogso

@refsupportuk Yes, 7 days ago another DOGSO incident ignored.

Let’s go back 7 days hey?

@FabrizioRomano @BeanymanSports Was he saying the same after one of his players got away with a deliberate headbutt last week? Didn’t think so, although this could be seen as having “everything going his way” like he’s asked.

🚨 “It’s a red card today, it’s a red card in Manchester… and the world is different”. 🌎 Mikel Arteta after Newcastle game. 🛑 @BeanymanSports 🎥

@VonBarronshire @refsupportuk Dear fans Please remember referees don’t create the laws, IFAB do, and remember fans only want to cry about a decision when it benefits them and often cry about a decision without any knowledge of the laws of the game.

@refsupportuk Dear refs, please remember that you create the laws and most of them don't apply commonsense, because you have never played the game and want an instruction manual on how to make decisions, rather than using your own brains.

@dpb1964 @refsupportuk That’s not how justice works, you can’t just claim corruption and for it to be fact.

@refsupportuk You're the embarrassing one with your blind defence of incompetent officials. Explain to me why you can be confident that there's no corruption when there's been cases in every other major league. The truth is you can't. You, the PGMOL and idiots like Dermot Gallagher sum you up.

More utter nonsense. Show me one piece of evidence, other than a bias, deluded, tin hatted OPINION and I will reply. Other than that, stop being embarrassing. 🫡

Well that was an eventful footballing weekend. Although I have learned that even if you provide evidence and state the Laws of the game, people will still think you are wrong 🤷🏼‍♂️ Business end of the season now. Exciting times

@refsupportuk 100 minutes, surely that’s the same time for them to score, which surely the better team would’ve took advantage off?

One of the best Mike Bassett, England manager’s impressions I have seen all season. 👍

@UTDDread @mark_robinson_ Where are they wrong?

@mark_robinson_ This confirms to me that the incompetence level of officiating in what’s supposed to be the best league in the world is horrific, how do you have video evidence and still get decisions wrong ? I’d hate for some of these clowns to be on jury duty

It was surprising how the referee could see these two incidents so differently, but he gets one look so you cut him some slack & VAR was brought in to correct his mistakes But for them to look at it multiple times & still make the same mistake is utterly baffling #MUFC #ManUtd

@SkySportsNews I tend to understand where Dermot is coming from but he’s got this one wrong. It’s a clear push, and it’s reckless taking into consideration the speed the players were travelling and the goalkeepers position which is clear to the attacker. It’s an easy caution

🗣️ ''That's the kind of incident that comes because defenders are trying to shield the ball'' Analysis on the collision between Cristian Romero and Antonin Kinsky after Romero tried to shield the ball from Brian Brobbey.

@RefsJourney “I watch the offsides every game”, that said. - I’m on my own, they have 4 officials and VAR at the highest level and they still manage to make mistakes. - I’m human. - I’d rather give a bad offside than a bad goal.

comes over to me, 'my fullback said that winger is offside every time' Imagine my shock FYI to all gaffers: 1. We don't believe you 2. See number 1

Half time in my game, gaffer comes over to tell me 'watch the offsides' Normally, I just say 'will do, cheers' to anything like this but it got under my skin. I asked 'why do you think I'm here?' He says his winger has been inside every time 2 minutes later the other gaffer

@garethreborn @spaulinnit @HaydenPurves11 @refsupportuk The rule (law) is the referee is the sole arbitrator of time. The relevant section is Law 5 – The Referee, 5.3 Powers and duties, which states: “The referee: acts as timekeeper, keeps a record of the match .

@spaulinnit @HaydenPurves11 @refsupportuk What is the rule?

Yes and the other team would just accept “playing until the other team scores” utter nonsense the ref blew when the ball was in the other half .
