Apparently he supports us https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/why-gilletts-anfield-adventure-will-be-his-last/18vxvfb0ae1gy1h9g3xn2kb2x6 Though I think someone on here had mentioned it was due to the studies at John Moore's

Commentary saying Jarred Gillett is VAR, isn't he not allowed to ref our games for some reason? Lucky for us if thats the case.

By "her fella" do you mean James Toseland, double World Superbike champion and former MotoGp rider?

There's also the rumoured £21m fee to buy out his contract

Saliba just kicks the ball away - no booking

Leverkusen losing as well

Phil Thompson as well?

That's harsh on Gomez

If we don't it'll be the thin end of the wedge

Ayew had stopped a free kick being taken just before doing it a second time which is why he got the first booking

Forest owner also owns Olympiakos, Sheffield United are Saudi owned apparently Burnley also voted against banning loans from associated teams so was 12 in favour /8 against, the 13/7 vote was to restrict commercial deals with associated parties

Maguire just kicked the ball away ..... No booking again

They're also ignoring him kicking the ball away and not being booked

Relay operator is apparently Dutch guy Mo Abby who works for Hawk Eye

Keith Hackett's take from the Telegraph t was remarkable to listen to the audio release of the Var conversations that took place during Liverpool’s defeat to Tottenham on Saturday. The staggering incompetence was laid bare for everyone to see and hear - it’s a terrible look for everyone involved, not least the PGMOL and Darren England, the Var at the centre of the controversy. I can guarantee to you that if this conversation was played over the tannoy systems around Premier League grounds across the country, this type of mistake would never be made again. There would have been riots had fans heard what was going on at Tottenham’s stadium. If officials knew that their conversations would be made public, live, then that would focus the minds completely and you can be sure no errors like this would be made. It comes down to protocol, once again. It is clear that there is no protocol in place for dealing with these types of situations - something as simple as a tick box system should be used to ensure people know what they’re looking for, or at. Is this a check for offside? Is this a check for a red card? What is the referee’s on field decision? Lay it out in simple terms. When Howard Webb’s first show came out that released recordings of past incidents, it was evident to me that it was a load of garbage to be honest with you. The conversations were so garbled, and it just felt so confused. I didn’t even see the need for lines to be drawn on this one, as it was so clear Luis Diaz was onside. Honestly, I could not believe what I was listening to when the PGMOL released what happened - it’s a good thing they have done this, but ultimately it shines a light on how incompetent the decision making is, and it will only serve to stoke the flames among supporters who feel aggrieved at such decision making. Now you’ve listened to that excerpt, you are bound to start wondering what similarly garbage conversations have happened with other incidents. Fans already have a great amount of suspicion around referees, Var and their ability to make the right decisions - this will only make things worse, given the content in the audio release. I was staggered by the level of communication on show in the short clip released on Tuesday night. There was no joined-up thinking, clarity of thought or any sort of collaborative approach. It appeared people were passing the buck until it all dawned on them what happened, and how they could not - or did not want to - rectify it. As a former official of course I had some sympathy with England, especially when it dawned on him the gravity of his error when he is captured on audio saying “Oh f---“. It’s likely to be the worst decision he has ever made and nobody, whether a former referee or a fan of the game, wants to see people make such grave errors of judgement. One of the key takeaways I had around the audio release was the notion among all the guilty parties that they “couldn’t do anything.” The replay operator, Oli Kohout, tells the team to “delay.” “Pardon?” came the response, as if this was such an alien concept to deliver. “Can’t do anything,” says England as Var. I am not going to hide behind the laws of the game here, which state that if play has been restarted (which it had) then it could not be called back to resolve the error. England clearly is applying the laws of the game here, but that is just the wrong thing to do in this instance. There is the laws of the game and then there is context, the spirit of the game, and doing the right thing. The right thing would be to resolve the situation and correct this most basic of errors. Blindingly claiming you cannot do anything because the laws said so is another strand to the mess. One of my overriding emotions from the release of the audio, though, is one of disappointment. Once again the standard of refereeing and Var in this country has proven to be not up to scratch and this is on Howard Webb to sort out, as this is the biggest crisis of officialdom I can remember
