    Open Age The moaning is putting me off refereeing

    I always take the approach that I am out there to enjoy myself. If someone is stopping me enjoying myself, they're off. Sometimes it works, sometimes their mates start moaning more. They then go off, and eventually they get the message. You're there to do them a favour, not to take abuse...

    Sunday mornings eh?

    Home team I last had in a PSF which ended in two reds for double YC, away team have a few grumblers. First half seems alright apart from one persistent fouler and one AA incident which ended with a yellow apiece. Second half, three hot incidents in three minutes, call the captains in - might as...

    Junior/Youth Red cards in Youth football

    Add an extraordinary misconduct report with these exact words because your CFA will take a very dim view of managers threatening referees to try and get a change in cards after the fact. Sometimes cards happen. A few weeks ago I had a keeper in a U14 game make a save outside the area, DOGSO-H...

    Crystal Palace vs Millwall

    A call to the nearest funeral home? A kick like that directly into the front of Mateta's face could literally have been lethal.

    I shouldn't laugh...

    I'm sure we've all had a twinge during a warm-up pre-match, but this is ridiculous!

    Foul with Offside

    One of those tricky ones from the LotG exams today - Green commits a trip inside the penalty area and is shown a yellow card. AR indicates fouled player was in an offside position. A) Rescind the yellow card and restart with a penalty? B) Rescind the yellow card and restart with an indirect...

    Chelsea (W) vs Arsenal (W)

    Looks like a very well-spotted foul from the ref - not sure what McCabe was thinking, in the wider shot doing the rounds you can see she clearly says something after her yellow and the red comes out almost straight away.

    Hanging up whistle

    That was the thing that clinched it for me - if I come off the park feeling like death every weekend, why am I doing it? Three points this season before Sunday I felt like packing it in, and I thought this season with my first as a 5 would be different - it's actually been much worse! What...

    Hanging up whistle

    Finally had enough - twenty minutes into this Sunday's game I was ready to walk off the pitch, I was losing my temper at players and giving them the kind of language they've been on at me all season, and I've realised that the forty bob each week just isn't worth it. I'm 29 next month so it's...

    Changing Room Disturbed

    Council park and changing rooms, but only one game happening on the day. Both clubs are aware but there's no CCTV or anything, so nowt will come of it - it's gone in on misconduct but the CFA and competition can't do much apart from record it and put a note out telling people to stay out.

    Changing Room Disturbed

    Hi all, Saturday county league game was a bit of a slog this week - nothing out of the ordinary, just lots of whining, after being moaned at end of the first half I decided to just get cards out and not give players a chance to grumble, which seemed to keep things moving. Mass con at the end...

    "You're biased ref!"

    Entering the field of play to remonstrate with the officials is a red card offence, I believe, and much more seriously matey boy is accusing you of being a cheat, which isn't on. IF he complains the competition/county will probably tell him, politely, to stop being a wazzock.

    Forest Vs Liverpool

    I wonder if this is PGMOL guidance rather than LotG? As a previous commentator stated, there's no way you'd be in position if dropped and then the ball went straight into play, so perhaps the guidance from Webb has been to contrive to drop it in the box for the keeper to give officials time to...

    DOGSO + Offside

    A player in an offside position recieves the ball from a teammate, and a defending player tackles him in a reckless fashion, outside of the penalty area, denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity. The referee shows a red card for DOGSO outside of the penalty area, when the assistant indicates...

    Increase body weight

    Don't concern yourself with macronutrient ratios and figures - people don't eat to mathematical formulae. Increase your unsaturated fat and protein intake, but avoid adding in more carbohydrate unless you know you've got good sound control of your blood sugar levels. I would imagine as an L2...
