John Brooks will no longer referee two Premier League games this week, with his mistake being one of two major offside errors by video assistant referees during Saturday's action.
The video assistant referee who wrongly disallowed a Brighton goal against Crystal Palace at the weekend has been replaced for two Premier League matches he was due to officiate this week.
However, the Professional Game Match Officials group, which officiates all Premier League matches, has confirmed Brooks has been replaced by Andre Marriner and David Coote respectively for those matches.Summit called after 'significant errors' The other involved VAR Lee Mason, who failed to check an offside in the build-up to Ivan Toney's equaliser for Brentford in their match against Arsenal.
He presented to clubs at Friday's Premier League shareholders' meeting and has raised the bar for VAR intervention on subjective decisions so that only clear and obvious errors are now being reviewed.
