    Copa Mundial Team Boots.

    Hi All, A question for those who use these boots - are they as 'oversized' as the Copa Mundial FG boots? I am a size 9.5 but found that the FG boots were more suited to a size 11! what is your experience with these?

    Fouled Off The Pitch

    I suppose you could dismiss the physio and make them leave the FOP. Is it not the case as long as there is a qualified First Aider on the team officials list then the physio is just regarded as an extra one of those first aiders?

    rules for under 13 games

    There will be a Main youth association that will have branches of regional leagues... try searching for that. AFAIK the regionals incorporate the constitution of the main association.

    Told the keeper he wouldn't be sanctioned but continued to mouth off and got a yellow for dissent instead...

    Keep an eye out for jewellery as well. No players should be wearing earrings or jewellery at all. Taped over isn't even worth thinking about.

    Trust your instinct.

    I did a youth game yesterday where the goalkeeper carried the ball out the PA when doing a kick out - I was right in line making my way up the pitch so knew it was. I gave a DFK. Talk from the players was that it was an IDFK but I told them it was Direct. The opposition scored and here is...

    Isthmian U18 and midweek games

    Not where I am (Scotland) - Expenses only. Schools cannot afford it.

    IPS v BHA

    Both are needless. Worse is that kids see this from so-called professional footballers. Time for any head to heads to be red now.

    IPS v BHA

    This is a red, he even leans in with his shoulder to ensure impact. Considerations are the distance of the ball: it is nowhere. The ability to avoid the goalkeeper: he had plenty of time to move or even turn around to back in. The actual lack of interest in the opponent's well-being...

    Chelsea v Morecombe penalty

    Not just go by the sound of the ball and then count 1 then monitor the GKs feet?

    Kit clash - Arsenal v Newcastle

    I have had this although I had a change kit. But home were blue and away were Navy blue. Was fun.

    Chelsea v Morecombe penalty

    I've seen plenty of games where the AR looks at the PK taker more than the GK.

    Pump and Guage

    Without going too far O/T I now try and grab the ball at the end of the game if the away team is in possession and it is the final whistle... it has been known for them to kick the ball out of the pitch area and rile the home coaches!

    Pump and Guage

    Has it been known for the away team to try to sneak their ball in when the ball has went out of play? Might not mean much, but some coaches like to play with their own balls. (Please don't)

    Drop Ball restart location

    I had a situation in a youth game recently where a home supporting parent stopped the ball from going out of play on the touchline to save time... it was a TI to the opposition. But because they stopped the ball it technically should have been a drop ball to the last team that touched it which...

    Junior/Youth match called off after pitch was fit

    a bit different up in Scotland, I think. Usually it is the referee (after they've inspected the pitch) that decides - if it is a local council park then it can be them that will call it off on safety grounds. But mostly it is down to the referee.
