I must say that photograph is enlightening. The two players appear to be in the sight line of the goalkeeper

@HACKETTREF I'm not a Villa fan. I'm a Newcastle fan. But this is clearly offside. 2 of them in front of the keeper's line of sight. Thus made it Aston Villa 2 Arsenal 3 in stoppage time.

There not my referees they are managed by Riley. Some would not be on the panel if I was still the boss. Oliver was wrong to not award a PK for the outrageous shirt pull on Richarlison

Keith your referees have played a huge part in keeping Everton in a relegation battle. Lots of avoidable mistakes by the officials. Embarrassing for your profession.

I am witnessing the erosion of ‘Fair Play’ in our game. Cheating is on the increase. Players feigning injury, Acts of simulation, Dissent, Time wasting. All challenging the referees authority. Issuing yellow cards is frankly not having the desired effect. Sin Bin the answer?

@HACKETTREF Hi Kieth, hope your well. Is there a reason why Mads Bech didn’t receive a yellow card (his 2nd yellow) for his deliberate impediment of Richarlison?

The referee in tonight’s game was wrong to award Manchester United a penalty kick. The player with back to ball did not deliberately handle the ball. The law in handball is clear, there was no movement of hand to ball. It was not a deliberate act. Oh dear what a referee!!

Martin I was at this game and his boss. He was near the halfway line and no way could he see that this ball had crossed the line. The Asst was in line with second rear most defender. He could not see. This saw the intro of goal line technology!!!

Newcastle on the wrong end of decisions again. The penalty kick was an easy decision. Shirt held, then a pus. How did Ref and Var not give a penalty kick us beyond me. The elbow is a subjective decision but for me I am giving a red card. The player used his elbow for sure. Red

This is basic law and a huge error by Ref Tierney. He stopped the game outside the penalty area when Forest were in possession. The drop ball should have been to a Forest player. Not the Liverpool Goalkeeper.

So looking at the footage of the behaviour of the Manchester City manager whose hands came into contact with the Assistant referee. I ask why he was not shown a Red Card. Yellow was the incorrect sanction. He should have been sent to the stand. Ban on its way a must.

Let’s analyse that “red card”. Two laws might apply here: 1) showing dissent by kicking the ball away or 2) delaying the restart. 1) There is demonstrably no dissent from Rice. He flicks the ball gently, not angrily. There is no justification for a caution under this law. 2)

That is excessive force two feet off the ground out of control. You do not have to make contact to be dismissed

High force and reckless, but the point of contact (toe), and minimal contact means he gets the caution.

So the next round of the FA Cup will see only two out of the four games using VAR. Millwall game and Swansea game will not have it in operation. All or none is what I think should happen. What are your thoughts

I am bemused by the poor procedure that the PGMOL have adopted with VAR. Aston Villa denied a goal by a very poor decision by the referee to caution a player for simulation. It was a foul advantage should have been applied and goal confirmed. VAR is in place to rectify S&O error

So just been informed by a reliable source that Lee Mason has been appointed a Referee Coach for the PGMOL The guy who did not set the world alight in the middle but was a survivor and was an abject failure in the VAR role will be advising and passing in his skill sets to others.
