    Promotion 17/18

    aye I also got told that if you are maybe around the 16/17 game mark but marks are good then you can be sailed through to level 6 ... much easier to do the 6-5 with games IMO

    Reasonably Priced Equipment

    @RefJef they haven't been sanctioned by the FA ;) the FA, in true style, has shirked responsibility and left it to CFA's to decide! You'll have to wait and find out if your CFA will allow the use of coloured shirts, ours is :D:D

    Reasonably Priced Equipment

    If you join a society etc you get discount members on the FA website :) A&H are terribly over priced for their kit, sporting touch do it for much cheaper, as do Kitlocker ... I only use A&H for specialist items and touchline flags

    Some useful words to calm down players/coaches

    personally I use the 'apology' route for minor things like pushes in the back, throw in the wrong way etc ... big things like a foul outside the PA when the players claim its a dive (and it may well have been) I stand my ground! little things players/coaches take on the chin

    Facial Hair

    Just a thought process here ... isit in more fact that they CAN have a beard but it is to be a neat a tidy beard? so not messy, or 5 o'clock shadows etc? Just thinking because I know other companies in my line of work that have this in place - either clean shaven or a proper beard/goatee etc

    Promotion 17/18

    @Mewcenary I can see where they are coming from, they explained that by doing a season to season jump gave you at least a year at each level - they did say that they are more disapproving of the 6-4 rather than 7-5 ... which again I do get, big jump from 6 and 4

    Facial Hair

    I always sport a short goatee (or box as my barber calls it!) ... I have been told about hair styles though? I currently have the ol' slick combed back hair, fairly long and then shaved back and sides - have been told the higher you go that they may hint about trimming the barnet

    Looking for suggestions/clarification

    I would say @Yampy is right there ... its a drop ball - the keeper is purposely going down to get the ball in order to prevent the attacker kicking it through fear of injury to the keeper ... IDFK to the attacking team in the area? and yellow to the keeper?

    New Ref- some fairly basic tips

    As in say @Tom Gibbins ... if the players are actually contesting the decision (every attacker will do the 'never was that offside@ etc. but if it is quite vocal and insistant then still give it, but say you'll keep an eye - and then do for the enxt 2 or 3 opportunities, maybe over rule one as a...

I believe even Mark Clattenberg once had a game number one! :eek: I'm not going to sit here and tell you the same stuff everyone else has said ... you already know everyone on this forum has been in your shoes etc. and...

    Looking for suggestions/clarification

    are we saying @Yampy that a keeper is in his rights to pick the ball up from a DB situation? (provided of course he is in the area)
