Really tough one, I would add that you can do something about it if you think its happening amongst fans, it is the home teams responsibility to manage the crowd both home and away supporters. Easier if its home team offending. Go over to manager and quite simply say he needs to get the...

Last night went to watch a team in their final match of the Womens Northen Prem as I work with their manager and they needed to win to stay in that league, another teams secretary/manager who was not playing that night and also came down to watch was next to me. He started ranting to a guy next...

My county expect you to wear county badge when on county competitions, they did have the cheek to email all county cup final refs why not buy a new nike badged kit with out county FA Badge, which reluctantly I did as I had a womens fa cup 5th round game and have a womens premier league cup final...

I am also over the moon as I am on the other game in Birmingham on the line :) could not believe it as my last game was Round 2

I am happy but also a little sad, I was in the middle for a mens county cup semi final trophy and on the line for the womens semi which was great, so I was not expecting a final appointment, to my amazement got an email saying I had been chosen for a final. Silly me presumed I would have some...

I am a club secretary and we have been forced to replay 2 games as one of our committee members was not signed on properly at the start of the season and played the first 2 games, We shopped ourselves as an oversight rather than hide it like most other teams do and they docked us 10 points and a...

Any of you seen this? http://www.jerseyfa.com/news/2015/nov/referee-announce-zero-tolerance-on-abuse I had to abandon my game yesterday after 4 reds and further misconduct from the same team and I had enough I was not taking that amount of abuse from players and club officials.

I have a pair of scissors in me bag, its amazing how quickly those immovable festival bands come off once my scissors come out.

And this is why we still have a culture of discrimination as people are not willing to change the way they think or act! I am done with this conversation. The real world is racist, sexist, ageist etc (equal pay for women still not here, people being refused jobs based on age still here, racism...

I see what your saying in terms of the reporting of people saying he punched me etc. However my personal common sense approach is to report discrimination claims as this country still has problems with racism, homophobia, sexism etc within the game. Being a white person with an Asian heritage it...

The FA don't use criminal trials they base it on civil law so it is on the balance of probability so if they see one witness as more credible than another they can charge someone.

It was not a Leicestershire ruling it was actually a west riding case, all local FA's are displaying all national cases for that fall under E.Conduct Category as part of transparency and that they are combating discrimination so all of those cases listed could be from anywhere in the country...

Sadly the thing is though if I had done that and then someone involved questioned the FA about the alleged incident who do you think the first person to be suspended would be? The Ref. The RDO explained that if I had not reported an alleged incident like that resolved or not the referee could be...

Does my head in, I have zero tolerance for jewellery as should every referee as its a law of the game that none must be worn. However on the line on sat for a senior league game and the ref says inspect kit so pull up 3 players for wedding rings all turn round and say sorry it don't come off to...

I had a similar incident, Player at half time reported to me that the home team in their own dressing room used the phrase lets get the 3 points and send these F**kers back home. When I told the home manager that an allegation had been made that this was said, I did not even mention it was a...

I had a game where the opposition had travelled 35 miles for the fixture, and turned up in the same colours as the home team as they had either not read the handbook or email properly from the home team. The home team refused to change as they had a spare kit.and refused to lend it to the...
