week and support them while sending them a new copy of the LOTG.

The clubs wouldn't agree. The home club have to shell out for
the cost of putting the game on again, paying the match
officials, all of which costs money. The away team have to pay
for travelling again, and all of this is because three match
officials didn't know the laws of the game. I know at one point
there was a suggestion put to the FA than when a game had to be
replayed due to refereeing errors the costs should be recovered
from the match officials, this was rejected but I'd say there is
an argument to say they should forfeit their match fees.

Why would the clubs have to agree? The FA have made plenty of
decisions over the years which clubs have disagreed with, whilst
having to accept them

I meant they wouldn't agree that the rhetoric was harsh. If
they are paying for match officials they have a right to assume
they know the laws back to front, the same as if you hired an
electrician they know all the regulations.

Sorry to disappoint, but excessive praise caused by a large
finger on a small phone screen. Would just go for "agree" !
