QuincyAbeyie if you get yourself caught up in arguments like this, you’ll lose your damn mind. Refereeing is not a science.
The big problem is the English refs have gradually decided to centre themselves in the game, and it appears (don’t have the data) to have made the game worse - more warnings, more stoppages. I just think giving out too many cards leaves you at more risk of being inconsistent versus giving out fewer cards.
I’d prefer that refs focused on making the game flow and coming down on players who physically endanger opponents. And just chill on the rest. There is no letter of the law
