Interesting how VAR is now getting involved in almost all the activity on the pitch. Just watching the Chelsea Leeds game and it has seemingly checked a throw-in as well as confirming a yellow card decision. Neither of those were in the original VAR remit. Bizarre.

And, while I'm at it, why do refs pace out the 10yds for free kicks that are vaguely in shooting distance, and ignore the ruling for free kicks in other areas of the pitch? I used, as a ref, to yellow-card players for not withdrawing to the 10yds distance.

I think refs have come to rely on var so don’t make decisions
