As debate rages over Arsenal's controversial red card at Wolves, fans up and down the land have been swatting up on the rules.

Myles Lewis-Skelly was given his marching orders at Molineux after Michael Oliver adjudged his challenge on Matt Doherty constituted serious foul play.

The PGMOL have since backed up Oliver's decision with a statement to Sky Sports which reads: "PGMOL's position on the incident is the challenge is extremely late, the point of contact is high and video evidence supports that conclusion."



That explanation has done little to satisfy Arsenal fans, but a look at the Premier League's official guidance has also caught the eye of their title rivals Liverpool.

But the picture used - of an incident which was NOT judged as a foul - has generated plenty of responses, with one Liverpool fan saying: "They’re trolling they know what they’re doing."

A second posted: "So they are saying this kind of challenge is OK, good process," with another replying: "Looool, and its not like VAR didnt give a penalty for this, but Howard Webb has audacity to go on a TV and explain why this is not a pen."

Meanwhile, the Premier League and PGMOL have issued a stern response after Oliver and his family were threatened following the controversial decision at the weekend.

The PL said: "The Premier League strongly condemns the threats and abuse directed at Michael Oliver," it said.

Their own statement read: "We are appalled by the threats and abuse directed at Michael Oliver following the Wolverhampton Wanderers v Arsenal fixture.

"No official should be subject to any form of abuse, let alone the abhorrent attacks aimed at Michael and his family over the past 24 hours.

"The police are aware, and a number of investigations have commenced.
