    Penalty procedure query

    The law doesn’t say that though, which was why I quoted it verbatim

    Penalty procedure query

    Law 17: A corner kick is awarded when the whole of the ball passes over the goal line, on the ground or in the air, having last touched a player of the defending team and a goal is not scored

    Junior/Youth Player walking away when trying to caution him

    Had a similar situation last season. A clear yellow for dissent. Player refused to come to me. I called the captain who, to his credit, was trying to drag the player to me but being resisted. Second caution for delaying restart. I had the luxury of teamsheets and the captain helped me out...

    Junior/Youth Offside when attacker advancing on keeper

    Not sure I have seen all the defenders that far from the drop zone but using your example that would work even better. My AR flagging then running to the half way line should give it away!!

    Junior/Youth Offside when attacker advancing on keeper

    I totally accept that the official line says oherwise. I feel this is the best way to effectively communicate a decision that clearly hasn't been thought through for officials without comms sets! I feel confident enough that my assistants will manage but can you imagine trying to set this up...

    Junior/Youth Offside when attacker advancing on keeper

    I see no difference to that than I do for exactly the same indication for foul outside of the penalty area. Not one assessor has queried it. Yet.

    Junior/Youth Offside when attacker advancing on keeper

    I cover this in pre-match. I had one decision like that all season (2016-17). I ask my assistant to give me the flag on the halfway line. If the touch was in the attackers own half then an obvious step over the halfway line will alert me and I will then know what is going on.

    Benoit Assou-ekotto

    It's difficult when it is only in slow motion. Doesn't look much like a red card challenge though!!

    Man City vs Liverpool

    I can't believe this has caused any controversy whatsoever. He jumps into a challenge at speed, with his foot raised at head height. Simplest red card. Mike Jones at Swansea today, saw a similar challenge as a yellow however.

    The link that James has posted is quite comprehensive. You will end up adapting certain things to suit your style and method.

    Phrases to players

    If I am wrong in law you must correct me. If it is just your opinion, you needn't trouble me with it.

    Deliberately parrying the ball

    Well done sir. :)

    Arsenal vs Chelsea - Community Shield

    I think the focus in this thread is on "deliberate trick" rather that "to circumvent the laws...". No doubt that Luiz 'trick' was deliberate but having made it realised an opportunity (shout perhaps) to head to Courtois. His initial action was a defensive play to defeat the attacker not to...

    There is no 'a' in pedantic :D
