That's one bit I'm happy to back-pedal on somewhat - the timing of the two offences in that incident. The foul on Kane might well start earlier. I was just trying to make sense of how the VAR people could watch the whole incident, and NOT give the penalty. The counter-offence from Stones is just...
For posting THIS?:
No - I wouldn't say so. This was titled as a thread on VAR, so I gave my opinion on it. Rather than 'gibberish' it all seems to make sense, even if you disagree with every single word of it, as is your prerogative.
This, on the other hand, isn't intelligent discussion...
There’s nearly always that element I agree.
The two England ones, I think you’re right - if the ref had given them, they’d almost certainly have stood. Their’s I think would have been given on review - there was simply no need for his arm to be up there, and asking for trouble.

You couldn’t be more wrong. Sat with my kids in my lounge now, walls decked with World Cup bunting, England flags and a poster of Harry Kane.
Enjoyed the game with a few beers, and just as happy as every other knobhead that we got three points on the board. Doesn’t mean I can’t look at a few...
Not at all. I think they were snide and deserved nothing from the game. I also think the ref was poor in general, and needed to dish out a card or two, for the sheer number of fouls.
And no, I don’t think the Stones push is the reason the pen wasn’t given. But it is reason why VAR might NOT...
People are so one-eyed on this stuff.
Tunisia penalty - Walker is careless and his swinging arm catches him in the face. It’s a penalty all day long.
The first half Kane one, he IS fouled, but there is an earlier MASSIVE push by Stones (they missed both of course)
The second half Kane one...
