[RealGunner]

Fully against this

[Myesyats]

When does this come into effect? From next season on?

[El Gunner]

Yes, exactly. The World Cup will be a better and fairer experience for everyone without showboating, incompetent PL refs

[Unique]

they dont want british refs because they let players tackle. all the non brexit diving pussys from the spanish lge would have to get up and get on with it and we cant have that can we.

Not the strongest BREXIT argument considering recent times in the GOAT LEAGUE sadly.
