       How does Lee Mason get to be a video assistant referee - I
       thought he had retired ?

       He got offered a role as a full-time VAR official after he
       retired from refereeing in the middle. It was confirmed in the
       premier league statement about him retiring.

       Moss sent over to the screen to have a look at penalty for
       SOuthampton- was it clear and obvious. I'm not so sure. Don't
       think VAR should be getting involved there

       Having seen it once in real time and now viewed the footage, am
       puzzled why the penalty was overturned. Should not have been a
       red card for Walker though.

       hopefully Gillet, Harrington, salisbury and brooks will
       hopefully have prem middles next weekend-whats the point of
       promoting them if its going to be the usual mix of regulars week
       in week out-it would be nice to see the new refs in the prem
       middle for a change

       Haven't seen the incident, but 2 reports I've read stated that
       even if the penalty had stood, it shouldn't have been a RC as it
       was an attempt to play the ball. However, both reporters were
       puzzled why it was deemed to be a clear and obvious error as the
       2 posts above also indicate.
       What did the MotD pundits think out of interest?
       There seem to have been relatively few specific threads opened
       on PL games so far this season which is down to me as much as
       anyone.  Is it a sign of less controversial decisions? I thought
       Martin Atkinson's failure last week to produce a card of any
       colour for 2 challenges in the Everton v Burnley clash for
       example, the first of which according to Gary Neville was very
       similar to the one that led to a serious injury and RC by Pawson
       for Struijk, would have produced some discussion. Memo to self -
       watch the action sooner and start a thread if appropriate!

       Having watched it last night on MoTD, I think penalty should
       have stood but walker’s red card should have been downgraded to
       yellow. Poor from VAR but also poor from Moss to not give the
       penalty despite viewing the incident on the screen.
       Dare I say Jones, England et al would have had a few weeks to
       ponder such a decision before another PL appointment….

       Possible appointments then for Jones and England in the future
       perhaps
