78. The VAR debate: Are PL games being re-refereed? - Season 2024/25, Episode 5

On this week's episode of the TCF Sport podcast, we talk about some of the major refereeing decisions that have been made across Matchweeks 8 and 9 in the Premier League. With referees having seemingly gone to the VAR monitor more and more in recent weeks, leading to the overturning of decisions that aren't necessarily clear and obvious, we discuss if Premier League games are now being re-refereed, and if that is a problem. 

We also discuss whether Morgan Rogers deserves a call up to the England Men's National Team and if Dominic Calvert-Lewin deserves a contract extension at Everton, before doing a short round-up of European football towards the end of the episode.
