I was asked for a statement from my FA not to go for a trial. However I am creating my report now. It may be on the longer side however I want to my reasoning and evidence behind the event that occurred.Remember you're a witness, not a defendant. Turn up, clarify your report, that you have nothing further to add as all the relevant facts were reported, go home. It's the player trying to escape a ban/fine, rather than your competency and judgment being called into question.

I did not end up making the initial report for the incident as I was not the assistant referee which was given that duty I only reported the incident as it transpired. However I do not think I gave enough information for the initial report.Max2 has nailed it. There should be nothing to add, or indeed take away, from your initial report.
What you can be open to, is on the evening, questions from panel re the report.
That doesn't really make a lot of sense. If you reported it as a straight OFFINABUS report they should just charge for that, if you submitted an extraordinary incident they should already have your report. Or has he asked for a written hearing, or pleaded guilty and asked for a plea of leniency?I was asked for a statement from my FA not to go for a trial. However I am creating my report now.

Whatever you are writing now, make it short and to the point. "In the xth minute of the game {player name} called me a "daft c***". I was x metres away from this and could clearly hear these words and see who had said them, I therefore sent him off for offensive, insulting or abusine language".
Doesn't need any more than that, and the more you write the more they can argue about at any subsequent hearing.
It’s my understanding that a red card can’t be appealed for INOFFABUS so it’s likely the scenario of the incident you’re there for but even so, he shouldn’t be saying what he said. Don’t worry about whether the red card will be dismissed or not as that’s not your problem, but just describe the incident as it happened, be clear and only stick to facts. The rest will sort itself outIt because of the event which transpired.
In the Xth minute of the game I put my arm in front of player who was on the touchline interfering with my abilty to assistant as an assistant referee and told him sternly to move which is when player called me a 'Daft C**t'. The club has said I was at fault for the incident as I light pushed the player.
And I have a feeling the red card will get dismissed cause of that small action I made in the heat of the moment as X player was interfering with me and this was not the first incident from the club which interfered with my abilty during the match.
Yeah I think what I am going to send to my county FA in terms of statement is too long. But I also feel if I do not include the context I will end of getting in troubleIt’s my understanding that a red card can’t be appealed for INOFFABUS so it’s likely the scenario of the incident you’re there for but even so, he shouldn’t be saying what he said.

Nothing wrong with being too long if that’s what’s required. Don’t negate important details because you’re concerned the email is lengthyYeah I think what I am going to send to my county FA in terms of statement is too long.

Your posts are unclear. You say you didn't submit an initial report, but as the referee acted on advice from you both the referee and you should have submitted separate reports.Yeah I think what I am going to send to my county FA in terms of statement is too long.

I was sent an email from my county FA about the incident that occurred which led to the red card being given to the player. I have been asked to explain how and why? As the club is stating that since I pushed the offender first it led to the situation which occured. I am sorry if I haven't made it clear but there is other stuff in my life going on which has led to this being very stressful and annoying for me.Your posts are unclear.

Appeals will only be considered by the CFA or The FA in cases of mistaken identity or the report being inaccurate in law.
Any report you submit now should be short and factual, including the words used by the player. Avoid trying to give reasons why something may have happened.
The hearing may be on Zoom/Microsoft Teams rather than in person (if there is one). Stick to facts, "nothing to add, Mr/Madam Chairman"
But did you submit a report after the game?I was sent an email from my county FA about the incident that occurred which led to the red card being given to the player.

I did not submit a report after the game as I was not AR1 so I did not think to.But did you submit a report after the game?I
OK, understood. If you called the referee over to dismiss the offender, you and the referee should both have reported the matter; the referee's report would indicate "My assistant (name) brought to my attention . . ." and yours would describe the incident fully and then state ". . . I brought this to the attention of the referee (name) and he sent off the offender, (name)"I did not submit a report after the game as I was not AR1 so I did not think to.
