       Rob Jones - Chelsea vs Bournemouth

       Interesting one in this game, Jones missed an incident involving
       Brooks and Cucurella, Brooks has successfully stopped Cucurella
       breaking off the ball with an arm across his neck/chest area.
       VAR Scott has sent Jones to the screen for a potential red card,
       with the end result being a yellow for Brooks.
       Whilst I think yellow was just about right and therefore common
       sense prevails, is Jones actually allowed to issue a yellow card
       in this situation? It was my belief that a review has to result
       in a red card or stick with the initial decision? Genuinely not
       sure on this one so happy to be enlightened!

       Im sure that if the ref goes to the monitor he is in control and
       all outcomes are on the table

       Yes, once the referee is called for an OFR he/she may deal with
       the situation in whatever manner they see fit.

       If the incident was missed completely by the referee then I
       believe he views the incident with fresh eyes. Be interesting to
       know whether management think it should have been RC and a
       correct VAR involvement or maybe VAR taking one for the team to
       ensure a YC was issued

       The VAR recommended a red. The ref went with a yellow. Sums up
       the run of decisions Chelsea are getting with refs at the moment
       (Pickford / Delap / Mitchell).
       A very strange performance. First half he managed to stop Palmer
       taking a quick free kick and then moved the ball back 20 yards
       to the incredulity of the players to a spot where no foul had
       taken place.
       There was an expectation that the red card would come out when
       he was sent to the monitor. There was no replay in the ground.

       The VAR didn't recommend a red, they are not allowed to do that.
       They told the referee that he may have made a clear and obvious
       error, told him what they thought is was, and then suggested
       that he went to have a look at it on the screen.

       When I watch the Miced Up show they recommend an OFR for violent
       conduct, they are doing so because it is a red card. We are into
       semantics here. If the VAR thought it was yellow there would be
       no review.
       Brooks looks at the player, clotheslines him and grabs his hair
       on the way down.
       Given what Stephens was sent off for - and Webb’s explanation
       that a hair pull is violent conduct - it is beyond explanation
       that Brooks gets away with a yellow.
       Here is the hair pull part of it. That’s a red on its own!

       There was also an obvious second yellow for Christie for the
       foul from which Chelsea equalised that was ignored.

       No we aren't, I'm explaining how VAR works, if you don't want to
       listen to that then it just adds fuel to the fire that you're an
       angry fan that doesn't understand refereeing.  Which is fine,
       but it does dull your argument somewhat.
       VAR cannot recommend a red card for anything.  What they can do
       is recommend on on field review where they explain to the
       referee that he may have made a clear and obvious mistake.  The
       referee is 100% entitled to say thanks but no thanks, I'm not
       having a look, just as he is entitled to do what Rob Jones did
       and have a look and stick with his original decision,
       The big issue I have here is what was Cucurella doing.  The
       keeper has the ball in hand, natural reaction is to run into
       space, yet he inexplicably runs horizontally into Brooks.  And,
       unfortunately, he has a great deal of history of initiating
       contact with opponents to try and get them sent off.

       Cucurella is clearly running to make himself available for a
       counter attack - as is the player in front of him by 20 yards
       (Sancho?). There was an opportunity for a fast break, which is
       why Brooks was so keen to stop him from getting away.

       The VAR will have told the referee that they are recommending a
       review for a clear and obvious error/serious missed incident for
       violent conduct - what else is that other than recommending a
       red card?
