I did pull back from _The next time the ref officiates the player’s club, the player gets a free two-footed tackle on said ref, an action he can take at any point during the game, whether the ball is live or not._ ---

Weren’t they sewn up ages ago with your mastery of electricity? These are people that exclaim “_He boils water without fire!_” when you make a cuppa, FFS. ---

Mane’s red card appeal has been upheld which has to be good news for us - and bad news for the sorry conveyor belt of appalling refs we have had to endure of late.
