Yeah good points on the slide tackles. What would you use, no more of those, that's 2 now think about it, cool it??

Wondering what the split is on people who record sanctions and those who do only sometimes depending on different things?

U16 top of the table clash, division 1. Have was going ok then in a short space of time early in second half, midfielder from away team committed 2 fouls, both times going to ground. I pulled him and had a word telling him that's 2 now, he needs to cool down. Within 5 minutes he does...

Can't view it, can you share again or in different format?

During a game, ball gets played in front of attacker as he enters the penalty box, as he goes to take a touch a defender comes flying in , slides, gets the ball but also a whole lot of the player. The attacker flies up in the air, spins round and lands on his back, the ball goes out of play...

Defender is shadowing the ball out from the attacker, they are in contact with each. The ball runs out of play and the 2 of them end up chest to chest and then the defender leans in with his head, only for a split second and it was only a lean in, no force. Would you give a red for violent conduct?

Hi all, some advice/tips on constant complaining... It just seems as the match goes on both teams are in my back, to the point where if I give a foul and a free kick they then complain that they wanted to play advantage, just seems I can't win, and I lose credibility as the game goes on also...

Hi all Had. A college game today. 1st half - Away team attacker into the box, 1 and 1 with keeper, gets his shot off and then the 2 of them come into contact and both end up in a heap on the floor. Shot goes wide, I give a goal kick explaining that he got his shot off and the momentum of the 2...

Hi everyone I covered a U12 9 a side game this morning for my son who was ill (I normally do 11 a side) and found it quite annoying how much the kids shouted and questioned everything from throw ins to penalty appeals and then talking between themselves saying we know we aren't going to...

Hi all My son (16 yrs old) reffed a u12 game on Sunday and he said from the first whistle both managers and players were shouting and claiming for everything all game. He said it's the worst game he's done. I know we say we have tools to deal with that sort of stuff but 2 things sprung to...

Hi all I know you will all say you can't comment without seeing the incidents but the last games I've done have been quite scrappy. By scrappy I mean challenges like both players running side by side arm out, but if grabbing, both sides shouting for a foul and I'm thinking 6 and 2 3's for me...

Hi everyone I've got my first game as a AR for u16 district game this weekend. Problem is I can't remember much of the training we did on running the line (I only qualified 18myhs ago) So what's the basics? Do I signal for throw ins in my half but on the far side? Do I signal for throw ins...

What do you say when 2 players at a corner kick are having a Argy bargy in the penalty box as the kick is waiting to be taken. I see refs go in talk to the players involved, but what do you say? Thanks

Sometimes I hear things like that but it's hard to pin point exactly who said it, which is frustrating. How strict are you all on it, what about get stuck in, don't let them past no matter what, don't let him go past 3 of us? Thoughts

I put it down as USB but could of been under any of the others
