In all honesty that can't be easy for Officials to keep on top of. At the end of the day though they should know what needs booking and what should be let go.
Hopefully they can learn from the Euro16 referees, who were excellent. Just not sure if the PDMOL are good enough in England to help the referees up to the top standard. Seems like referees like Clattenburg, Dean Atkinson & Oliver are exceptionally good referees above a lot of average ones.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
