what you dont get a bonus when you do your job well

Adding tech pros to VAR and complete transparency with being able to hear the officials' decision making process is probably a road the FA /EPL simply won't go down. Far too simple - and honest.

TBF, Howard Webb wants to have live audio of VAR but the governing bodies won’t allow it. Hence the Mic’d Up programme being the best he can do.

I’m not a Peterborough fan but I do like Darragh MacAnthony as he speaks the truth and gives his honest opinion. He is right that why do lower league clubs get given referees from higher divisions as a punishment for the referees previous mistakes. The rules are the same at all levels

I still cannot believe we're still having this conversation when the answer is ridiculously simple. 1. Mic the referees. 2. VAR only gets actively involved for offside decisions or if they see an act of violent play missed by the referee. 3. Each Captain or Manager can appeal (within 30 secs) of a penalty being awarded, a card (any colour) being awarded, or a goal being disallowed or scored. This forces the referee to go to the VAR screen and watch replays provided by the VAR team to review his decision. Each team gets three appeals a match and they keep an appeal if the referee's original decision is overturned. This simple change let's the referee do his job freely, gets VAR out of the picture and puts the onus on the players and manager to back themselves when they dispute a decision. In other words... put up or shut up!

The offsside rule should be changed to where the attacker must have clear daylight between him and the last defender ie all his body offside, not just a toe or a shoulder etc.

Off side is easily sorted out, there has to be a clear gap between the attacker and defender, does away with fingers and toes being offside.

So players don’t have bonus for good performance, win, goals, clean sheets etc! Most jobs in any industry have a bonus scheme!

Just Have To Love Darragh’s Transparency When It Comes To Money, It’s Quite Insightful And Interesting To Hear Where Money Goes And Just How Much Of It Too.

Keep var out of the EFL

Easiest way to manage off side is or the var ref to get three looks at it at normal speed and if they can see an offside then call it off, if they cant then it has to go in the favour of the striker. Current system is measuring toes nail width with lines, the strikers dont have goggles to show those lines, they are just guessing as best they can, sometimes from across the pitch!!!

The lines for OffSide are killing the game, I'd do a video revision, if visually you cannot tell the offside, THEN Err on the side of the forward, hence IT IS NOT OFFSIDE, keep it simple.

oh poor boy. who hurt you???

Football needs to stay as natural as the game should be. VAR has fucked the game up already. Blue card as well. Known spot on with the ref bonuses. The ref is expected to Put a good performance every time, their professional refs

Jim White is a muppet!!

3:40 VAR wasn’t supposed to be checking every goal trying to find something wrong. Clear and obvious was how it was ‘advertised.

No refs, no game

3:56 Martin showing the disconnect right there, £15,000 is not just small print in any walk of life

the importance of refs + the scrutiny they receive = underpaid imo

Offside can definitely be improved, maybe it should be feet only for example. It's crazy seeing a wonder goal go in, only for VAR to take 5 minutes to decide that a hair follicle was offside.

Grand a goal , no wonder Peterborough are the highest scorers in league 1 . Darragh is class

I agree with Darragh when he says refs are overpaid and that they shouldn't be thrown into lower league games when they make mistakes.

You can't expect the game not to be corrupt if the referee gets paid the least 🤪

Yes Keown, proper Oxford man stood his ground, stood strong.

Strikers do get goal bonuses at a lot of clubs, don't they?

£25 a month for Sky!!!🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️ just shows how far behind people with money are in the real world

Like Darragh and he been a good listen this week, but that’s by far his poorest 11 minutes on talkSPORT. Also Keown is very, very brave, calling him a victim. Probably him cancelled now.

So Martin didn't get a clean sheet bonus then??

For offside there should simply be a gap between last defender and attacker ,there would be no need for lines to be drawn, does anybody agree?

Quarter of a million a year for running about the pitch for 180 mins lmao 😂 yeah forget about the players doing half that for 10 x as much

Follow the rulebook the basics

For a referee to get to ref a Premier League game logically he is of a higher standard than what League 1 or 2 currently has that's why it's not a punishment for them leagues, if he does a bad job in them divisions too he should be dropped to the National Leagues.

"they wont her the refs in a game" ..... but they mic up the refs in NFL .... then when they go to speak and explain, the crowd shuts the eff up cos they want to hear why the pen/foul has been called .... this IS NOT difficult, surely ?!?!? 🤔

I like how the Spanish league does it.

How can you complain about a ref getting paid 100k a year when players they are officiating are making 300k a week. Absolute clown.

You cannot complain about referees earning more money when players earn that money for 1 week... the hypocrisy is astounding. Referees have to deal with the childish imps running around the pitch. Thry should be paid atleast a respectable amount. They dont jeed the respect of the public, they need the respect of the players and managers.

Division 3 is of a poor standard

I everyone aware Darragh is a CLUB OWNER? 😅🤣

The irony of Martin Keown wasn’t he the same guy who ranted about refs when Newcastle beat Arsenal and then has the cheek to call someone a victim

Darragh speaks pure sense

The Irish chap is running rings round poor old Martin.

Totally agree Darragh prem refs should not be relegated for a bad game its not fair on other leagues he should be punished but keown such a good player but should not be on any show what a waste of money he is the worst pundit ever such a prat

Make it even fairer and have the refs paid by the clubs and they get paid the average of the wages the people on the pitch are getting paid. So obviously, they get paid less for most fa cup match than they do for a premier league game. And the refs get paid on a per game basis.

Is Darragh an owner ?lol

Clueless man, pay £1000 for a goal? All that means is that players will be selfish and not work as part of a team

Pretending to be a victim is blatant Wokery🎉😂🎉

No one wants VAR. It was refreshing watching the Championship football last weekend with Ipswich Soton, which was reffed by the awful ref Salisbury, and with no pressure from VAR, had a really good game. No VAR proper football, which everyone could enjoy

So Martin doesn't want refs to get a bonus. Yet a striker on £200,000 a week still gets paid for scoring goals

Darragh - the epitome of the beta-male owner. Does Darragh have any wisdom to impart being the owner of a small club? Small club wisdom? Small club profundity. Wowzer.

Agree but yeah

Darragh MacAnthony proper bloke with reasonable logic

this clown hasnt a clue, a multi billion pound industry and he wants to pay the most important official in the middle 40k a year or something daft. while hes meant to be dealing with people earning 400k a week. why would the players respect someone who needs to work 2 jobs to make a living? they dont respect as it is

This guy is funny

as much as var is not perfect without it we will be at the mercy of the corrupt premier league referees,arsenal lost a whole bunch of league tittles to man u and ferguson because of pathetic cheating i will never forget our unbeaten record broken by man u with rooney diving and getting awarded a penalty it was disgusting and it would never been given had we had var

Darragh = Top LAD Proper Clobber 💯 Facts

A premier league team or a owner who is not trying to promote his small club and himself grandiose

Darrah is a bit of a prat

Jim, you clown- everyone in the stadium WILL hear it if the ref is mic’d up! Same as NFL. You may not agree with subjective decisions but you can hear them. Objective decisions are explained but cannot be disputed. Only Football ties itself up in knots.
