Re: Nottingham Forest tweet
Should have a separate pool of VAR officials, freeing up "active"| refs to work on the pitch. You could recruit the best recent retired refs from around the world to sit in Stockley Park, with no bias as far as showing their old mate/colleague up. Im baffled why they insist on it being one pool of r...

Re: "An English Week"
It isn't the normal schedule, no. Sometimes you will get cup games midweek, often at KO times like 3pm or 4pm which can be a pain, but normally its just 5pm Wednesday 1 or 2 times a season.

More importantly, being aware of that ignorance, and as such not proffering opinions about subjects you do not have a grasp on.
I ask potentially stupid questions professionally, at least as part of my job, and it doesn't half take some getting used to to get past the fear of looking like an idiot.
