Confirmed errors are only available from 2023-24, when the Key Match Incidents panel began. Earlier seasons show the disciplinary record only. † Below-threshold errors were not published for referees under 10 games in 2023-24, so that season counts VAR-layer errors only — which are complete. It is not a measured zero. ‡ Penalties are recorded from 2023-24 onward; a dash means the figure was never collected for that season, not that none were given.

The W–D–L is the club's. Nothing here is evidence of bias — a difference this size is what chance looks like. See how that was measured.
