The Referee Forum

Towards the end of the 2018 Carabao Cup final, Arsenal boss Arsène Wenger asked me as fourth official for more added time, despite being 3-0 down I assumed he meant another minute or two, but now realise he must have meant eight years Sorry, Arsène premierleague.com/en/news/47…

What's one thing you would do to fix VAR? 🤔🙌

Patriot Warriors on X are an informal online community of MAGA-aligned conservative accounts, often calling themselves a “family.” The group formed in late summer 2022 after an earlier group called TROJAN fractured. Organizers @Gentleman2741 (Teddy) and @LindaNTx rebuilt it as a supportive network rather than a formal organization. Members share encouragement, prayer requests, birthday wishes, and amplify patriotic posts. They use private DMs more than public Communities and gather under the hashtag #PatriotWarriors. Core values include support for President Trump (often called Trump 47), the U.S. Constitution, Christianity, pro-life positions, America First policies, and solidarity with Israel. The group describes itself as open across nationalities and backgrounds, with no dues, rigid hierarchy, or offline events. New members typically DM the core accounts to join. Many individual X users independently use “Patriot Warrior” in their names or bios as a personal expression of patriotism. The specific “Patriot Warriors family” refers to this voluntary affinity group that has lasted nearly four years through platform changes. Activity stays online and social. @A_RottieLover @UnsinkableDolly @sunshinentan2 @kate_p45 @Ellis5ol @Sagemw6j @Okieboy63 @Libby4Liberty0 @lah3309 @CatDog342252 @bandsmom1_no @UNCgirl33 @bp85wildfan @pr0ud_americans @RAGINxCAJUN @ColemanSul94355 @Shawn4Trump76 @W4W7G1W7G4A5 @PecanC8

Isn’t it more time to have a rethink about the makeup of the KMI Panel? The number of individuals who are familiar with the law is outnumbered by those who are not (former players) and it’s always going to deliver voting results such as this.

It would have been difficult to explain this to #NFFC in the moment. They might have photocopied one of their old letters about refereeing standards, changed the date, and sent it in on Monday But at least a proper benchmark would have been set for the rest of the season 🧵
