It is either a clean and fair tackle or it is a reckless tackle. It cannot be both.

Exactly this @ChasObserverRefDeveloper I was being watched as a potential level 6

In honesty, it started off with being extremely lenient as I would ignore it and do nothing when this was picked up on a couple of times, I went in the completely opposite direction and would sin binned player for raising their voice but didn't do it consistently and was told that it was...

Yes and 7 out of 8 reports, I've only been given "minor development points" and the most common development points were : work on positioning" "deal with dissent better" The other report, I got several development points, such as cautioning players without using the stepped approach...

Not only have I "stepped down" I've also stepped away when the feelings got extremely intense and saw a therapist. The issue I face now is not one of confidence per se

I've already engaged in conversation with RDO and he has identified that I'm lacking in managing players effectively and thinks that because I'm not managing players effectively and inconsistently that this is the reason why clubs are marking me low, I have worked on this for the past two...

With all due respect, I think you have just judged me on a post and some data that was given to me and frankly didn't read my post where I've said no feedback and the decision to stop appointing me was not communicated. If I frankly didn't care about my own personal development then I don't...

but remember that if a substitute is giving you dissent then you use the normal C2

OP: NEVER NEVER NEVER REFEREE A NON AFFLIATED GAMES AND TOURNAMENTS.

we're making the same point here! I was just trying to explain and if it's level, it just depends on the situation.

In my opinion, that's a caution for delaying a restart of play because you said that there was "no dispute over the direction." thus sin binning is not required... Remember that dissent can be by word or ACTION and is always directed as a referee. In the scenario that you mentioned, no action...

then it's dissent by action

Also they might know that they are in an offside position and may not touch the ball. Laws state that it is not an offence to be in an offside position

Was the offender on the winning team or on the losing team? If the offender is on the winning team then it's an attempt to delay the restart of play. (Caution, sin bin not required) If the offender is on the losing team then it wouldn't make sense for him to delay the restart of play; they...
