Apologies if already covered but seen nothing mentioned about charging Harry Wilson for his reaction to the ref in the game Sunday. The evidence is clearly there at best he is using expletives directly at the ref, calling him "f'ing sh1t" and approaching in an aggressive manner and at worst he calls him a "f'ing cheat".
Given all the talk about respect from the FA etc it's not a good look to simply ignore this happened when when many were watching Sky and saw it plus all subsequent social media coverage of it.
Another example of the FA not being fit for purpose. |  | | |  |

The first few weeks of every season sees the FA and referees clamping down on dissent. Then, after realising yet again, that such a clamp down might actually involve sending players off, things go back to normal. |  | | |

It was also shown on MOTD, as you say it does nothing for respect. |  | | |

There’s been a lot of it going on.
This, Cunha’s ban, Pedro’s attempted elbow.
I can’t recall which manager, but I heard a manager say recently when talking about a clear foul on their keeper, “we were all told in the summer, this is the Premier League, thats what makes it different and why everyone watches it, so that’s they way it is, so there’s no point in complaining”
Think it might have been Hurzeler |  |

Although showing Harry Wilson making an absolute berk of himself does seem a punishment of sorts. |  |

Literally my biggest bugbear in football. Where teams these days try to get marginal gains wherever possible, you'd think dissent would have worked its way out of the game. As you say though, it seems refs and their assistants are too scared to enforce it. |  | | |

In game time the ref may have missed something as lots going on and would have someone in their ear from VAR so would not be fully focussed on Wilson so miss what exactly he said. It's more the lack of action afterwards.
If I understand things correctly, the only way the FA can't act after the game is if the referee has noted in his match report he heard the dissent but chose not to discipline the player. If that were the case the PGMOL should be disciplining the official for simply ignoring the laws of the game with regard dissent and player behaviour. | | | |
