Bullingham director at Ifab, which he says has discussed topic‘There is a split between the marketing people and the referees’
Mark Bullingham, the chief executive officer of the Football Association, has raised the prospect of the game’s global rule-making body examining whether audio between referees and VARs should be available live.
Miscommunication between VAR Darren England and referee Simon Hooper led to Luis Díaz’s goal for Liverpool at Tottenham being wrongly disallowed last month, leading to further calls for such conversations to be played out in real time. The incident caused huge controversy, with Jürgen Klopp even calling for the match to be replayed.
