A new programme on We will showcase the in-game audio of Premier League match officials. The debut episode of Match Officials: Mic'd Up will feature PGMOL chief Howard Webb and former Liverpool and England striker Michael Owen. Tune in to We Premier League on Wednesday at 8pm to watch.
The series aims to clarify refereeing decisions by utilizing match footage and previously undisclosed audio. Webb, along with pundits Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher, joined Monday Night Football in a revolutionary episode of last season to provide explanations for various VAR calls.
Webb took us behind the curtain to enhance transparency regarding the VAR process by showcasing examples of both accurate and erroneous calls, aiming to shed light on one of the most debated aspects of the game.
"We have pledged to increase transparency," stated Webb during Monday Night Football. "We acknowledge the public's desire for more insight into the referee procedures, especially with the introduction of VAR."
