The official responsible for Saturday\u2019s VAR blunder broke his own golden rule when he wrongly ruled out Luis Diaz\u2019s goal for Liverpool at Tottenham, a new book has revealed.<\/p>\n

Darren England submitted to a Q&A for \u2018The Football School Encyclopedia\u2019 in which, asked \u2018What is the hardest part of the job?\u2019 he responds: \u201cMaking sure you do not make a mistake that impacts the outcome of the match.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is the worst thing for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

By a remarkable quirk of timing, the book, which is written by Alex Bellos and Ben Lyttleton and aimed at younger readers, will be published on Thursday and offers insight into one of those responsible for what veteran former referee Keith Hackett described in the Telegraph as an episode of \u201cstaggering incompetence\u201d.<\/p>\n

England and his VAR assistant Dan Cook have been stood down from future appointments while Professional Game Match Officials Limited chiefs undertake a full review of the \u201csignificant human error\u201d that it concedes was made during the game.<\/p>\n

Recommended<\/h3>\n


\n<\/p>\n

In the Q&A, which was conducted prior to the incident, England continues: \u201cI try to prepare the same way for every match, which is to stay calm and relaxed.<\/p>\n

\u201cDuring the match I remain very focused and just take each decision I need to make, one at a time.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do not worry about past decisions in the game as it is all about the next decision.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Football School Encyclopedia is aimed at younger readers and boasts its appeal to \u201canyone with a thirst for knowledge, amazing true stories, terrific trivia, brain-busting quizzes, eye-popping colour, laugh-out-loud cartoons on every page \u2013 and everything you want to know about football!\u201d<\/p>\n
