Was thinking about that post after 2 minutes and how much stick he was going to get. More fool me.

Does that mean the Bus Wreckers would beat the Toffees 10-2?
As I said, I've not seen the incident, so I was mainly commenting on the correct procedure for a penalty after the end of the half. From where I picked up the thread though, it certainly wasn't established that there was a minute to go. But I fully accept this could well have been the case, and the referee seems to have confirmed this.
Regarding blowing the whistle so that a referee can check VAR, of course this should not happen. This is just common sense. No referee should blow his whistle to check VAR. He should wait for the next time the ball is out of play before going to VAR or for the VAR to intervene. Or he should make a normal decision based on his own interpretation of play, and only if the VAR thinks a mistake has been made will there be intervention. The referee can't use VAR to go back and verify his own decisions.
We see this all the time on offsides. Play continues until a goal is scored, and then VAR intervenes or the assistant referee raises his or her flag for an earlier offside.
Anyway, regardless of what we think as observers, this is what The Laws of the Game says under the VAR protocols. The bottom line is that the referee must make a decision. He can't blow then go to a monitor to choose how play should restart.

Especially given that they were still winning until the 78th minute. That's a shocking collapse. The players must have got a bollocking for that one. It's one thing to lose. It's another to let a goal in and then completely collapse.
Making it up? I've posted an extract from The Laws of the Game to back up my statement. Do you really think referees blow their whistle to stop play, then go to the TV monitor to check what the correct decision should be? This NEVER happens.
Also, you missed out the second part of my post that gave an alternative to what you selectively quoted. It's that part that started with "Or...".
The part of the rules of the game you listed has nothing to do with blowing the whistle so its completely irrelevant.
How do you think the referee signals to the players they should not take a throw in or goalkick because he is going to the monitor?
Heres a hint. They blow the fucking whistle and then make the signal.
The fact you're getting into an argument about an incident you already admitted you haven't seen says it all.
Hahahaha. I nearly wasn’t logging on tonight
