Hanging Judge | New IFAB members are trying to justify their lofty positions
There have been many changes to the laws of the game in recent years. Some good, and some not so good, in my opinion.
Yes, we do want decisions that comply with the laws of the game; justice to not only be done, but be seen to be done; and the team that deserves to win, to do so legally – fair and square. It can be argued that some of the refs are using the VAR as a prop to get them out of a hole when difficult decisions need to be made.
We had to step up, have a bit of backbone, grow a pair and get on with it. There was less back-chatting, although that will always happen anyway. But, for the most part, games were pretty uneventful.I also remember having to referee many games without the help of two assistant referees, or linesmen, as they used to be called.
