Yesterday I did a game and it's one of the worst one-sided games ever. To start with the away team traveled since 8:30am to 1pm to get to the ground and they turned round and complained that the pitch is unsuitable, the pitch had a layer of light snow and being a 3G pitch the home side was able to get 95% of the pitch ready and brushed and within 10/15 minutesof kick off the remaining snow had melted and the pitch was back to its usaul state. The end result was 3-0 to the home side who tried not to humiliate their opponents with a higher score.
My first thought when I turned up to see the pitch was right how deep is this snow and if we brush this snow off can we get this game going? Then having words with a home team representive and their assistant manager and they said the same as me a good brush and this game will be played.
The away side were still unhappy so decied that they would play under protest so I said okay no worries, this led me to belive that they were not going to play fairly and put a lack of effort in. Which during the match you could see and all they wanted to do was complain and contest every desicion, I told them to calm down but maybe a couple more yellows would of shut them up.
Only the 2 Yellows and 2 Reds in a Semi Final game, I had 3 booking for the away team 2 yellows for C2 and 1 red for S2 (Had a player by the throat) and 1 red for the home team for S2 (A 'stamp' which I have now been told was a wrong call as I didn't see the opponent grab his ankle - I was told this by a few supporters and a ref mate who was watching).
I've been threatend by the away team that they are going to lodge a appeal agaisnt me, I'd love to see what they're going to put. This is coming from a team who haven't lost all season.
Now earlier today I recived a message saying that the away team had 'apparently' played who wasn't named on the team sheet - In university football the team sheet is usaully suppilied after the game for the ref to sign, I had the home teams but the away team didn't want to know anything about me.
So all this appeals could come back and bite them in the arse.
