  • I don’t think having two refs on the field should be controversial though. The refs are unprotected as is with one person having a lot of autonomy. I know it’s a different sport with a smaller area of play but take a look at the NFL. There are 7 officials on the field. Whenever they call a flag or foul there isn’t crowding of the refs by players. Additionally they all come together to make the call and announce it on the PA system. Am I asking that for football? No but having more officials so that they can discuss cards in addition to VAR will give refs more tools to do their job right. My heavily depreciated 0.02¢
