       I don't recall how often Oliver was VAR last season but he was
       at Stockley Park on Saturday and he's there again next weekend
       for Arsenal v Fulham.  Not quite the same though as being at
       Craven Cottage as referee!

       Yes, Oliver is certainly very different to Taylor in that he
       does do regular VAR appointments. It's probably not as many as
       some due to the fact he referees more matches but he certainly
       wasn't anywhere close to 0 VAR appointments last season as
       Taylor was.
       At least Oliver being VAR on a Fulham game ends any speculation
       about whether he can officiate them or not!

       something that he's so good at then there's no reason to use
       him, just because he's a PL referee. They're different positions
       as has been said many times before. It does suggest Taylor might
       not go down the specialist VAR route whenever he stops as
       Dean/Mason has done but I daresay he'll have some decent options
       anyway!

       I don't think Oliver had many games as VAR either.  It makes no
       sense for two reasons: they aren't going to do VAR in Europe,
       but also their workload is higher than most of the EPL referees
       as they are constantly off for UEFA games or get togethers.
       Arguably they should also have less EPL middles than the other
       referees, but the lack of talent means they have to be
       overworked, no need to add additional games as VAR onto that
       workload.

       Tierney is the one who gets appointed the most in the premier
       league, its 2 times a week almost every week

       Sat/Sun/Tues/Wed/Thurs, including two games as referee.
       No Cann or Massey-Ellis.

       Massey-Ellis is AVAR at the U20 Womens world cup. Darren Cann is
       an interesting one. Pawson has Thursday/Sat/Sun/Tues/Wed/Thurs.
       3 games as a ref as he is Europe in the conference league on
       Thursday.

       He is on VAR, which rubbishes the he can't referee fulham
       because a family member supports them claims.

       Kavanagh with 2 games in championship midweek should be back in
       prem action next weekend
       Harrington also on championship duty-would have liked to have
       seen him in prem action but hopefully this will happen like
       kavanagh next weekend
       England transferring to champio9nship but got prem game in week
       hopefully all 3 of these refs will get a game next weekend
       pleased for Thomas to get his first poem game hope it b goers
       well for him
       good luck to Massey-ellis at u20 world cup as aavr hopefully she
       might do this role for future prem appointments

       AT hasn't done VAR because he's not been appointed to do so.
       Nobody can "opt out" not that he would anyway

       Rob Jones is another who hasn't had any VAR appointments this
       season or last season. I do seem to recall he did a VAR
       appointment in the FA Cup last season.
