Anything on the no card, injured the player, 4 min VAR, new verbiage from "pro" ref Bogle bungle?
Confusion, comparisons and... clarity? The Kai Havertz penalty claim for Arsenal had many scratching their heads. Was it offside? Or a spot-kick? A look at the pros and cons, and why the referee and the VAR ultimately went with offside. 👇 bbc.co.uk/sport/football/art…

Should we invest more in refs?

You said the opposite, in writing and publicly here africa.espn.com/football/sto… PGMOL expects fouls of this nature to result in a red card, with the full point of contact from the studs above the ankle from behind
#LEETOT - 34’ The referee’s call of no red card to Bogle for the challenge on Tel was checked and confirmed by VAR. VAR: “I'm confirming the on-field decision of no red card. There’s a lack of speed going into the challenge and he’s stepping into the tackle. Confirming a reckless challenge”.

Should also add, he was VAR when he cancelled our goal vs West Ham as the keeper was impeded by a defender

He’s offside If he gets the ball He’s still offside what’s complex about it?
On the Arsenal non-penalty, it seems the rule is so complex and ambiguous that it's essentially "create your own adventure". One precedent (Brentford) gives the decision, one (Newcastle) doesn't.

Hold on Though holding was allowed
#ARSHUL – 42’ VAR recommended an on-field review for a potential penalty to Arsenal for a challenge by Mendy on Havertz - but determined that Havertz was in an offside position in the build-up. REF: “After review, there is a holding offence by Blue No.32 on Red No.29. However, Red No.29 is in an offside position, so the final decision will be a free-kick for offside to Hull City”.

Hi Dale Are you okay? Seem to have missed your tweets about the potential red card? About as late as Bogle
The top of the arm is not handball, and hasn't been for around eight years or so. Absolutely not a penalty. #LEETOT

As there is no Japanese level ID which would solve this Everything is done hyper locally there is no uniformity in process or standards There is no automatic right to a card with simplicity & ease And this is before we discuss changes in names due to marriage and divorce
As a Japanese person, I genuinely don't understand this. Republicans controlled both the House and the Senate. So why didn't they even pass a basic law requiring voter ID? What the hell were they doing?

I'm sorry but this is just such utter, pompous bullshit. Every single place the policies that Talarico proposes here have been implemented - notably California - the poorest people in our society have suffered the most. Spare us the "religious left" grift.

3 match ban is too much See also Bentancur It’s should be a one match ban — FWIW I think refs decline to send off due to a 3 match ban at times when it’s an either or red
Arsenal's Max Dowman lost his appeal against his red card at Fleetwood for violent conduct by a 1:2 vote. The claim for excessive punishment was lost 0:3. The decision was that of referee Michael Salisbury alone. 👇 bbc.co.uk/sport/football/art…

Ranked choice voting is not what you say it is
This is what ranked-choice voting is designed to do. In Alaska’s gubernatorial race, the Republican vote has split three ways, meaning that when all is said and done the lone Democrat will win—in a state that went for Trump by 13 points two years ago. The purpose of RCV is to elect Democrats. You’d think my fellow Alaska voters would have figured that out by now. Guess not.
